WCN25-2800 TREND IN INCIDENT RISK OF ISCHEMIC STROKE AMONG INDIVIDUALS ON MAINTENANCE DIALYSIS IN ALBERTA, CANADA
Kidney failure inherently increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases, including stroke. Dialysis, particularly when it disrupts hemodynamics, further elevates stroke risk, contributing to significant morbidity and mortality. We evaluated the trend in stroke burden and identify associated factors among individuals undergoing dialysis in Alberta.
