HD complications:
The common complications for HD divided into two categories:
1. Intradialytic complications.
2. Vascular access complications.
Complications
Intradialytic complications
It is the complications that occurred or carried out during hemodialysis.
The most common complications include:
1. Hypertension.
2. Hypotension.
3. Electrolytes imbalances.
4. Cramps.
5. Nausea and vomiting.
6. Headache, chest pain, or back pain.
Complications
Vascular access complications:
1. Infection.
2. Thrombosis.
3. Bleeding.

commonly include dizziness, pain
Management
lightheadedness, nausea, vomiting,

cases, loss of consciousness.
Causes of hypotension includes: Hypertension
1. Fluid removal: Rapid removal of fluid during dialysis
can result in a decrease in blood volume, leading to low
blood pressure. Hypotension
2. Ultrafiltration rate: The rate at which fluid is removed
during dialysis can impact blood pressure. Higher
ultrafiltration rates increase the risk of IDH. Cramps
3. Dry weight: Dry weight refers to the ideal weight of a
patient without excess fluid. If a patient's dry weight is
set too low, excessive fluid removal during dialysis can Nausea and vomiting
occur, leading to IDH.
4. Coexisting medical conditions: Conditions
such as heart disease, autonomic dysfunction, Headache, chest pain, or back
diabetes, hemorrhage and advanced age can pain
Management increase the susceptibility to IDH.
of 5. Medications: Certain medications, such as antihypertensives, may contribute to
complications lowering blood pressure during dialysis.
Acute management includes: Hypertension
1. Ultrafiltration rate should be decreased or stopped,
depending upon the severity of hypotension.
2. The patient should be placed in the Trendelenburg Hypotension
position, where the body is laid flat on the back (supine
position), with the feet higher than the head by 15 to 30
degrees. Cramps
3. We give an intravenous fluid bolus of 250 to 500 mL.
The optimal replacement fluid is not known. Common
replacement fluids include isotonic saline, hypertonic Nausea and vomiting
glucose, 5 percent dextrose, or albumin solutions.
4. Oxygen should be administered.

Prevention of recurrence: First line Hypertension
1. Reassessing the target weight.
2. Avoiding food intake during dialysis.
3. Withholding antihypertensive agents prior to dialysis. Hypotension
4. Limiting interdialytic sodium intake to reduce
ultrafiltration requirements to 1 to 2 g/day.
5. Make sure that dialysate calcium and magnesium are Cramps
≥2.25 mEq/L and ≥1.0 mEq/L, respectively. Low-
dialysate calcium and magnesium have been associated
with intradialytic hypotension. Nausea and vomiting
