Evaluation of the effect of duration on dialysis on echocardiographic parameters: A preliminary study

Abstract: The excessive cardiovascular mortality seen in patients with end-stage renal disease seems to be closely related to accelerated coronary atherosclerosis. Some echocardiographic parameters such as left ventricular mass and diastolic dysfunction are implicated in ventricular dysfunction and mortality. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of duration on dialysis on some echocardiographic parameters. We enrolled 75 patients on hemodialysis, including 34 women, in our prospective study. The mean … Show more

“…Vascular calcification was determined with a CT value of vessel of 130 or higher by CT scan [13]. All subjects underwent echocardiography on a Hewlett-Packard Sonos 100 device equipped with a 2.25-MHz probe to verify the presence of cardiac valvular calcification, if ≥1 mm strong echo occurred in aortic and mitral, tricuspid leaf, or disc ring as assessed by Doppler echocardiography [14]. …”

“…Dans notre étude, elle est de 15%. Cette prévalence est similaire à celles de Ezziani et al [5], et Ellouali et al [6] au Maroc qui ont rapporté respectivement des prévalences de 14% et 22,6% dans leurs études. Par contre elle est plus faible par rapport à celle rapportée par Mihailescue et al en Roumanie qui est de 57 > % [7].…”

“…All subjects underwent echocardiography with Philips IE33 echocardiograph equipped with a S5-1 PureWave array probe (frequency 1.7/3.3MHz) to veri ed the presence of CVC. CVC was de ned as bright echoes of more than 1 mm on one or more cusps of the aortic valve or mitral valve or mitral annulus [6].…”
