Association between intradialytic hypotension and physical function in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis: a multicenter cross-sectional study
A significant inverse relationship was found between the higher IDH frequency and worse physical function in MHD patients, manifested by impaired walking ability, reduced upper and lower limb muscle strength, and diminished mobile balance ability. These findings suggest that optimized blood pressure management during hemodialysis to minimize IDH occurrence could potentially preserve physical function in this population.
