- Early Start Peritoneal Dialysis: Technique Survival in Long-Term Follow-Up(2018) SILVA, Bruno C.; ADELINA, Erica; PEREIRA, Benedito J.; CORDEIRO, Lilian; RODRIGUES, Camila E.; DUARTE, Ricardo J.; ABENSUR, Hugo; ELIAS, Rosilene M.Background/Aims: Peritoneal dialysis (PD) has gained interest over the last decade as a viable option for early start dialysis. It is still unknown if shorter break-in periods and less time for proper patient evaluation and training could influence technique survival in comparison to planned-start PD. Methods: A prospective and observational study that compared technique survival in a cohort of patients who started either early or planned PD. Early start PD was defined as break-in period from 3 to 14 days with no previous nephrologist follow-up or patient training. Results: A total of 154 patients were included (40 as early start PD), followed by a median time of 381 days. Comparing early vs. planned-start PD, groups were similar concerning age 56 (40; 70) vs. 48 (32; 63) years, p=0.071, body mass index (BMI) 23.3 +/- 4.2 vs. 23.8 +/- 4.0 kg/m(2), p=0.567 and male gender (60 vs. 48%, p=0.201), respectively. Comparing early vs. planned-start groups, there were no differences regarding PD dropout for peritonitis (7.5 vs. 11.4%, p=0.764), catheter dysfunction (12.5 vs. 17.5%, p=0.619) and patient burnout (0 vs. 4.4%, p=0.328), respectively. Less patients in early start group quit PD for peritoneal membrane failure in comparison to planned-start group (2.5 vs. 16.7%, p=0.026). In multivariate cox-regression analysis, the only factors independently associated with technique failure were BMI > 25 kg/m(2) (p=0.033) and Diabetes Mellitus (p=0.013), whereas no differences regarding early vs. planned-PD start were observed (p=0.184). Conclusion: Despite the adverse scenario for initiating dialysis, early start PD had similar outcomes in comparison to planned-start PD in long-term follow-up. (C) 2018 The Author(s) Published by S.

conferenceObject PARATHYROIDECTOMY MAY IMPAIR PHYSIOLOGIC SYSTEMIC VASOCONSTRICTION AFTER HEMODIALYSIS PROCEDURE(2014) FREITAS, Geraldo R.; SILVA, Vitor B.; ABENSUR, Hugo; LUDERS, Claudio; PEREIRA, Benedito J.; CASTRO, Manuel C. M.; OLIVERIRA, Rodrigo B.; MOYSES, Rosa M. A.; ELIAS, Rosilene M.; SILVA, Bruno C.- Hypokalemia and hyperkalemia in patients on peritoneal dialysis: incidence and associated factors(2020) GONCALVES, Fernanda A.; JESUS, Jessica Santos de; CORDEIRO, Lilian; PIRACIABA, Maria Clara T.; ARAUJO, Luiza K. R. P. de; MARTINS, Carolina Steller Wagner; DALBONI, Maria Aparecida; PEREIRA, Benedito J.; SILVA, Bruno C.; MOYSES, Rosa Maria A.; ABENSUR, Hugo; ELIAS, Rosilene M.Background Hypokalemia is a well-described electrolyte disturbance in patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD). Hyperkalemia, however, is still overlooked, although it also represents a risk factor for mortality. Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and/or angiotensin receptor blockers (ACE/ARB), diuretics, and proton pump inhibitor (PPI) can interfere with potassium levels in these patients. Methods This is a retrospective study that evaluated monthly serum potassium in a 5-year period. Serum potassium disturbances were evaluated as time-average and number of hypo- and hyperkalemia episodes per patient. Prescribed medication such as ACE/ARB, diuretics, and omeprazole were recorded. Results We evaluated 2025 potassium measurements obtained from 146 patients on PD. Serum potassium ranged from 2.5 to 8.3 mEq/L with an average of 4.72 +/- 0.74 mEq/L. Hypokalemia was found in 59 measurements (2.9%) obtained from 35 patients (23.9%) whereas hyperkalemia was demonstrated in 269 (13.3%) measurements obtained from 74 patients (50.7%). Hypokalemia was associated with low albumin (p = 0.022), and omeprazole use (p = 0.024). Black race was a protector factor (p = 0.031). Omeprazole-associated hypokalemia was seen only in non-anuric patients and remained an independent risk factor even after adjustments. Patients who had hyperkalemia were more likely to be anuric (p = 0.001) and in use of furosemide (p = 0.0001). Conclusion Hyperkalemia and hypokalemia are very frequent in patients on PD and should be closely monitored. Interventional studies should address the impact of discontinuing omeprazole in the levels of potassium.
- High-Flux versus High-Retention-Onset Membranes: In vivo Small and Middle Molecules Kinetics in Convective Dialysis Modalities(2020) CORDEIRO, Isis S. F.; CORDEIRO, Lilian; WAGNER, Carolina S.; ARAUJO, Luiza Karla R. P.; PEREIRA, Benedito J.; ABENSUR, Hugo; ELIAS, Rosilene M.; SILVA, Bruno C.Background: Patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (HD) exhibit increased levels of uremic toxins, which are associated with poor outcomes. Recently, new dialysis membranes have allowed clearance of solutes with higher molecular weight, without significant albumin losses high-retention-onset-HD (HRO-HD). Methods: Prospective crossover trial, in which 16 prevalent patients switched from high-flux HD (HF-HD) to online hemodiafiltration (olHDF) and HRO-HD for 4 weeks. The following variables were evaluated: pre- and post-dialysis serum concentrations of albumin, urea, phosphate (P), beta-2 microglobulin (beta M-2), and total mass (TM) extraction and dialyzer clearance of urea, P, and beta M-2. Results: Comparing HF-HD, olHDF, and HRO-HD, respectively, there were no differences regarding pre-dialysis serum concentrations of albumin (3.94 +/- 0.36, 4.06 +/- 0.22, and 3.93 +/- 0.41 g/dL, p = 0.495), urea (166 +/- 29, 167 +/- 30, and 164 +/- 27 mg/dL, p = 0.971), P (4.9 +/- 2.1, 5.2 +/- 1.6, and 4.9 +/- 2.1 mg/dL, p = 0.879), and beta M-2 (31.3 +/- 7.1, 32.6 +/- 8.6, and 33.7 +/- 5.9 mu g/mL, p = 0.646). beta M-2 clearance was significantly lower in HF-HD in comparison to both olHDF and HRO-HD: 43 (37-53) versus 64 (48-85) mL/min, p = 0.013, and 69 (58-86) mL/min, p = 0.015, respectively. Post-dialysis beta M-2 serum concentration was higher in HF-HD in comparison to olHDF and HRO-HD: 11.6 (9.6-12.4) vs. 5.7 (4.5-7.0) mu g/mL, p = 0.001, and 5.6 (5.3-7.6) mu g/mL, p = 0.001, respectively. TM extraction of urea, P, and beta M-2 were similar across the 3 dialysis modalities. Conclusions: olHDF and HRO-HD were superior to HF-HD regarding beta M-2 clearance, leading to lower post-dialysis beta M-2 levels.
- Hemodynamic Behavior During Hemo-dialysis: Effects of Dialysate Concentrations of Bicarbonate and Potassium(2014) SILVA, Bruno C.; FREITAS, Geraldo R. R.; SILVA, Vitor B.; ABENSUR, Hugo; LUDERS, Claudio; PEREIRA, Benedito J.; OLIVEIRA, Rodrigo B. de; CASTRO, Manuel C. M.; MOYSES, Rosa M. A.; ELIAS, Rosilene M.Background/Aims: Ultrafiltration that occurs during hemodialysis (HD) promotes profound alterations in a relatively short period of time. The dialysate content of bicarbonate (DBic) and potassium (DK) may have impact over intradialytic hemodynamics, which goes beyond ultrafiltration, and its impact was evaluated in a prospective cohort. Methods: 30 patients under HD were submitted to hemodynamic assessment (HA) at the beginning and at the end of HD sessions, through a non-invasive method. Serum minus dialysate potassium concentration was expressed as K-Gap. Cardiac index (CI) and peripheral arterial resistance (PAR) variation (post-HD minus pre-HD) were expressed as Delta CI and Delta PAR. Dialysate content of sodium and calcium were expressed as DNa and DCa, respectively. Results: Mean DNa, DK and DBic were, respectively, 136.4 +/- 1.1, 2.1 +/- 0.6 and 38.2 +/- 2.1 mEq/L. In 15 patients, DCa was > 1.5 mmol/L and in the other 15 patients <= 1.5 mmol/L. The K-Gap ranged from 1.4 to 5.1 mEq/l (median 3.0 mEq/L). There was a reduction in post-HD CI and systolic blood pressure (Delta CI = -0.72l/min/m(2) and -11.3 +/- 15.1 mmHg, respectively, p < 0.001 for both). Conversely, Delta PAR increased (Delta PAR = 272dyn.s/cm(5), p < 0.001). Lower post-HD CI was was associated to higher DBic (p = 0.0013) and lower K-Gap (p = 0.026). In multivariate analysis, Delta CI was dependent on DBic and K-Gap, whereas Delta PAR was dependent on dialysate calcium during HD. Conclusion: We confirmed that Na and Ca dialysate content exerts and important role on hemodynamic during HD. In addition, our findings pointed out that higher dialysate concentrations of bicarbonate and potassium promote lower cardiac performance at the end of hemodialysis session.
