Data indicates that approximately 27% o f the mortalities are due to sudden cardie death. More on cardiovascular complications in dialvsis o Cardiovasucular disease is the major cause of death in ESRD patients and atheroscleroses is present in all long term dialysis patients. o Premature cardiac death has reached epidemic levels in world dialysis population occurring five to ten times as commonly as in age matched general population and accounting for at least half of all patients death. o Hypertension is a major risk factor o Other risk factor are # Hyperphosphetemia and elevated calcium phosphorus with calcium deposition in coronary> arteries. # Anemia # Hypertriglyceridemia # Low HDL cholesterol # Increased lipoprotein (a) # Insulin deficiency or resistance # Hyperhomocysteinemia Also know Complications of dialysis | | Acute complications of hemodialysis Long term complications o Hypotension o Cramps o Nausea and vomiting o Headache o Chest pain o Back pain o Itching o Fever and chills o Cardiovascular o Anemia o Secondary hyperparathyrodism and renal osteodystrophy o Malnutrition o Hepatitis (A, B, C, D, E) o Depression o Dialysis encephalopathy o Malignant tumours o Carpal tunnel symdrome o Uremic neurophty
