Effect of hemodialysis in end-stage renal disease patients on pulmonary function tests: a meta-analysis of cross-sectional studies
Hemodialysis acutely mitigates renal failure-related pulmonary restriction, with percent-predicted spirometry showing consistent gains. These effects highlight role of dialysis prescriptions and fluid management strategies in optimizing respiratory as well as renal outcomes.
