Abstract

To consider the prevalence of pulmonary artery pressure in End-stage Renal Disease (ESRD) patients, a study was conducted on maintenance of hemodialysis patients and a group of normal subjects. For assessment of pulmonary artery pressure all participants were subjected to two-dimensional and doppler echocardiographic studies that for patients were done after their hemodialysis session. In this study a significant difference of Pulmonary Artery Systolic Pressure (PASP) between patients and normal subjects with more values in hemodialysis patients was seen. A significant positive correlation of pulmonary artery pressure with age of control group and also significant positive correlation of pulmonary artery pressure with age of hemodialysis group were found. A significant positive correlation of PASP with duration and dosages of hemodialysis treatment were seen too. A high prevalence of pulmonary hypertension in hemodialysis needs more attention to this aspect of hemodialysis patients because pulmonary hypertension is a disease with poor prognosis. © 2006 Asian Network for Scientific Information.
