Hypotension during dialysis is a common complication in haemodialysis patients, which typically occurs during the later stages of dialysis. It is estimated that hypotension occurs 25 to 50% of dialysis treatments (Victor and Henrich 1994 pg196- 208). Many factors involve in hypotension during dialysis including volume depletion, high ultrafiltration rate, autonomic dysfunction, antihypertensive medications, bioincompatible dialyser membrane, low dialysate temperature, declining serum osmolarity etc. (Daugirdas 1991 pg 233). However, in spite of appropriate treatment, many patients still suffer from hypotension …showed first 75 words of 2017 total…
