Hemodynamics during intra- and interdialytic periods depend on ultrafiltration volume

Introduction: Parameters of arterial stiffness are independent cardiovascular risk factors for end-stage renal disease patients. Significant changes of these parameters between intra- and interdialytic periods have been reported previously [1]. The aim of this cross-sectional study is to describe the influence of the ultrafiltration volume on hemodynamic parameters.
