Frequency, predictors and outcomes of intradialytic complications in patients on maintenance haemodialysis in Dar es Salaam: Prospective longitudinal study
Hemodialysis is a life-saving procedure with multiple complications of which some have detrimental outcomes. Nonetheless, having a good understanding of the factors associated with the complications, appropriate management and ways of preventing them will remarkably improve the procedure and make it a safer renal replacement modality. Carefully, monitoring pre-dialysis vitals and taking necessary measures when deranged, individualized proper machine settings, sufficient fluid removal and standard blood flow rate may improve the dialysis procedure.
