Abstract Background and Aims Blood pressure (BP) variability is an important cardiovascular risk factor that contributes to the high burden of cardiovascular mortality in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Ultrafiltration rate (UFR) and plasma refill rate modify the extracellular volume (ECV), which is a major determinant of the systolic BP. Segmental bioimpedance of the thoracic region addresses the central volume compartment of the body. We hypothesize that changes in bioimpedance reflect changes in BP and that thoracic measurements are more accurately in detecting intradialytic BP changes compared to whole body bioimpedance. Method During two consecutive short-term interval HD sessions, thoracic bioimpedance signal was registered continuously from predialysis until the end of the session. Corresponding BP, whole body bioimpedance and ultrafiltration volume (UFV) after the start and at the end of dialysis was registered. After outlier detection, valid raw bioimpedance data [Ohm] at 8 and 160 kHz for thoracic measurements, and 5 and 200 kHz for whole body measurements, were taken into further analysis. Dialysis sessions were divided into 3 groups according to the development of the systolic BP: a drop ≥ than 20 mmHg was defined as a hypotensive session, an increase ≥ 10 mmHg was considered as a hypertensive session. Pearson correlation analysis was applied (r, p-value) to the relative data, calculated as a percentage from the start value. Results From 2 dialysis centres, a total of 46 HD patients were enrolled in the study (65.2% male, mean age 71 ± 12.6 years, mean dialysis vintage 4 ± 3.9 years), which resulted in 89 dialysis sessions to analyse. Mean systolic BP after start of dialysis was 133.2 ± 20.7 mmHg and mean UF volume was 1817.5 ± 801.5 mL. 23 sessions showed a hypotensive gradient from the start till the end of dialysis, and 13 sessions progressed with an increase of more than 10 mmHg. When the 8 kHz curve was plotted according to the 3 BP groups, a more plane increase in thoracic bioimpedance signal was observed in the group with a normal tension course (Figure 1). There was a significant relationship between UFR and changes in relative bioimpedance data, as well as thoracic (r = .49 at 8 kHz, r = .46 at 160 kHz, all ps < .001), as whole body bioimpedance (r = .58 at 5 kHz, r = .52 at 200 kHz, all ps < .001). UFV correlated with changes in systolic BP (r = -.31, p < .01). Both bioimpedance techniques correlated with each other (r = .38, p = .001 for low frequencies; r = .29, p < .01 for high frequencies). Where the relative thoracic bioimpedance signal correlated with changes in systolic BP (r = -.35 at 8kHz, -.32 at 160 kHz, all ps < .01) (Figure 2), whole body did not. Conclusion Thoracic bioimpedance is associated with intradialytic BP changes, whereas whole body bioimpedance is not. Thoracic bioimpedance has the potential to function as an important diagnostic and predictive tool in BP variability during HD.

Abstract Background and Aims Optimal fluid management is a challenge in patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESRD) on maintenance hemodialysis (HD). Multifrequency bioimpedance spectroscopy (MBIS) is a non-invasive method to estimate body composition, including estimates of extracellular water (ECW) and intracellular water (ICW) and the ratio between both spaces (ECW/ICW). Pulse pressure is a significant risk factor of cardiovascular disease and death in general and dialysis population. Our study aimed to analyse the correlation between systolic, diastolic and pulse pressure with body composition status in ESRD patients before HD. Method We performed a retrospective single-centre cohort study in 93 HD patients. The body composition was measured using the portable whole-body MBIS device, Body Composition Monitor-BCM(®) (Fresenius Medical Care, Bad Homburg, Germany). Blood pressure was measured with OMRON monitors. Results The mean age of patients was 64 ± 13 years, mean dialysis vintage 63 (1-352) months, 61% were men, all patients had arteriovenous fistula as vascular access. Sixty-nine (74.2%) patients were fluid overload (FO) with > 1.1 L overhydration. Other data are presented in table 1. We found a statistically significant correlation between the pulse pressure and ECW/ICW ratio (r=0.258; P=0.033) in FO patients. In contrast, there was no significant correlation between systolic, diastolic blood pressure and ECW/ICW ratio in FO patients. Conclusion Only pulse pressure and not systolic or diastolic blood pressure values measured before HD are associated with ECW/ICW ratio in FO patients.

Stress is an individual's adaptive response to various external pressures or demands and produces a variety of disorders including physical, emotional and behavioral disorders. Final year students often experience feelings of stress so that it can interfere with concentration to attend lectures and can even hamper completing education in a timely manner. There are several ways of managing stress, one of which is using aromatherapy. Aromatherapy is a non-pharmacological therapy, which is a type of therapy that applies direct body contact and has a therapeutic effect that combines physiological effects, caused by massage on the body, with psychological effects, which are derived from essential oils. The general purpose of the study is to analyze the effect of aromatherapy on blood pressure and stress levels by using the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale in final semester students. The research method used a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group design approach, in 28 intervention groups, namely respondents who were given lavender aromatherapy massage and 28 respondents in the control group. The univariate analysis was conducted to show frequency distribution and bivariate analysis was conducted by independent sample T-test and dependent sample T-test. The results showed that there were significant differences in systolic blood pressure before and after the intervention in the intervention and the control group with a p-value of 0.01 < 0.05. Whereas the stress level variable found that there is no difference in stress levels in the intervention and the control group before and after the intervention with p-value 0.169> 0.05.

Abstract Background and Aims Assessment of optimal hydration status in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on peritoneal dialysis (PD) is a challenge. Multiple diagnostic options to determine hydration status in PD patients are available. Multifrequency bioimpedance spectroscopy (MBIS) is a cheap, simple and non-invasive method of estimating body composition, including estimates of total body water (TBW), extracellular water (ECW), intracellular water (ICW) and the ratio between both spaces (ECW/ICW). Lung ultrasonography (LUS) and lung B-lines (lung comets) can be used for the evaluation of extravascular lung water. Ultrasound evaluation of inferior vena cava (UIVC) provides rapid, non-invasive assessment of a patient's hemodynamic and volume status. N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is related to fluid status and fluid distribution. The aim of our study was to assess fluid status in PD patients comparing four different methods: MBIS, LUS, UIVC and NT-proBNP. Method We performed a single-centre cohort study in 19 PD patients. The body composition was measured using the portable whole-body MBIS device, Body Composition Monitor-BCM(®) (Fresenius Medical Care, Bad Homburg, Germany), LUS with portable US device (VScan, General Electrics Corporate), UIVC index with SonoSite US device. NT-proBNP was measured in a one-step sandwich chemiluminescent immunoassay (Dimension Vista® System 1500, Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics Inc., Newark, NJ, USA). Results The mean age of patients was 54 ± 10 years, mean dialysis vintage 53 (10-194) months, 63% were men. Thirteen (68.4%) patients had fluid overload (FO) &gt; 1.1 L. Data of patients are presented in table 1. We found a statistically significant correlation between the number of lung comets and ECW/ICW ratio (r = 0.496, P = 0.031) and NT-proBNP (r = 0.759, P &lt; 0.0001). In contrast, there was no significant correlation between the number of lung comets and UIVC (r = 0.221, P &lt; 0.364). Conclusion According to our results, LUS with lung comets, MBIS with ECW/ICW ratio and NT-proBNP are useful and complementary methods for evaluation of fluid status in PD patients.

Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Aga Khan University Faculty of Health Sciences Research Committee (#80096) On Behalf PC BP (Post Clinic Blood Pressure) Study Group Background Nocturnal non-dipping increases cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in both hypertensive and normotensive subjects. Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring(ABPM) can identify nocturnal blood pressure(BP) dipping patterns but clinic BP cannot. We previously showed that 15-minute post-clinic BP correlates well with 24- hour ABPM. Purpose We aimed to determine if 15-minute post-clinic BP reading helped to identify patients with nocturnal non-dipping pattern. Methods A cross-sectional study involving 150 participants, as part of the Post Clinic-Ambulatory Blood Pressure(PC-ABP) study, was conducted in cardiology clinics. Participants aged ≥18 years, with hypertension or those referred for its assessment, were included. Pregnant females were excluded. Post-clinic BP was taken 15 minutes after the patient-physician encounter in the clinic using an automated, validated BP device by a research assistant. All the participants were then referred for 24-hour ABPM. Patterns of nocturnal dipping were studied amongst groups of controlled(&lt;140 mmHg) and uncontrolled(≥140mmHg) post-clinic systolic BP(SBP). Fischer exact test was used to determine the difference in dipping patterns amongst the two groups. Results The mean age of participants was 60.3 ± 11.9 years. Of 150 participants, 49% were male and of all, 76% were hypertensive. Mean nighttime SBP(±SD) was 121.9(±18) mmHg(p-value &lt;0.001). Mean nighttime DBP(±SD) was 68.7(± 8.7) mmHg(p &lt; 0.001). Patterns of nocturnal dipping amongst patients with mean post-clinic SBP &lt;140mmHg versus ≥140mmHg has been shown in Table 1. The difference in nocturnal dipping patterns between the two groups was statistically insignificant(p-value 0.071). Pearson correlation coefficient between post-clinic SBP and nighttime SBP for patients with loss of dip was higher (0.64; p &lt; 0.001) whereas it was 0.56(p-value &lt;0.001) for those with preserved dip.  Conclusion Uncontrolled post-clinic BP can help in identifying patients with nocturnal non-dipping. Larger studies can help determine the prognostic value of post-clinic BP amongst patients with nocturnal non-dipping. Nocturnal Dipping Amongst The Two Groups Controlled PC SBP &lt;140mmHg (n = 80) Uncontrolled PC SBP ≥140mmHg (n = 70) Preserved Nocturnal Dipping (10 to 20% nocturnal drop in SBP) 61.2% (n = 49) 47.1% (n = 33) Loss of Dip (&gt;0% to &lt;10% of nocturnal drop in SBP) 33.8% (n = 27) 48.6% (n = 34) Reversed Dip (≤0% drop in SBP) 5% (n = 4) 1.4%(n = 1) Excessive Dip (&gt;20% drop in SBP) 0 2.9% (n = 2) Table 1 shows the patterns of nocturnal dipping amongst patients with controlled (&lt;140mmHg) and uncontrolled (≥140mmHg) 15-minute post-clinic systolic blood pressure (PC SBP).
