ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

Hypertension is one of the most critical risk factors for cardiovascular disease, which is the leading cause of death in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Medium cut-off (MCO) membrane increases the clearance of medium molecules, which could improve blood pressure (BP) control. This study aimed to compare the effect of MCO and high-flux hemodialysis membranes on BP assessed by ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM).

METHODS:

This is a pre-established secondary analysis of a 28-week, randomized, open-label crossover clinical trial. Patients were randomized to HD with MCO or high-flux membranes over 12 weeks, followed by a 4-week washout period, and then switched to the alternate membrane treatment for 12 weeks. ABPM was started before the HD session and ended at least 24 h later in weeks 1, 12, 16, and 28.

RESULTS:

32 patients, 59% male, with a mean age of 52.7 years, and 40% with unknown CKD etiology, were enrolled. The dialysis vintage was 8 years, and more than 70% of the patients had hypertension. Regarding 24-h BP control, morning diastolic BP showed an increase in the high-flux compared to stability in the MCO group (interaction effect, p = 0.039). The adjusted ANOVA models showed no significant difference in the morning BP levels between the groups. Considering only the period of the HD session, patients in the MCO, compared to those in the high-flux membrane group, showed greater BP stability during dialysis, characterized by smaller variation in the pre-post HD systolic and minimum systolic BP (treatment effect, p = 0.039, and p = 0.023, respectively).

CONCLUSIONS:

MCO membrane seems to have a beneficial effect on morning BP and favors better BP stability during HD sessions.
