Abstract
- Introduction Abnormalities in blood bicarbonates (HCO3–) concentration are a common finding in patients with chronic kidney disease, especially at the end-stage renal failure. Initiating of hemodialysis does not completely solve this problem. The recommendations only formulate the target concentration of ≥22 mmol/L before hemodialysis but do not guide how to achieve it. The aim of the study was to assess the acid–base balance in everyday practice, the effect of hemodialysis session and possible correlations with clinical and biochemical parameters in stable hemodialysis patients.Material and methods We enrolled 75 stable hemodialysis patients (mean age 65.5 years, 34 women), from a single Department of Nephrology. We assessed blood pressure, and acid–base balance parameters before and after mid-week hemodialysis session.Results We found significant differences in pH, HCO3– pCO2, lactate before and after HD session in whole group (p
