Acute Haemodialysis-induced Changes in Tissue Doppler Echocardiography Parameters

Background: Tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) is a method that determines the tissue motion and velocity within the myocardium. Aims: To characterize acute haemodialysis (HD)-induced changes in TDI-derived indices for patients that have end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Study Design: Cross sectional study. Methods: Conventional echocardiography and TDI methods were applied to study ESRD patients (n=58) before and after HD. Pulmonary venous flow, mitral inflow, and TDI signals of the lateral and septal mitral annulus were examined for the determination of altered left-ventricular diastolic filling parameters. Flow velocities from early- (E) and late-atrial (A) peak transmitral; peak pulmonary vein systolic (S) and diastolic (D); and myocardial peak systolic (Sm) and peak early (Em) and late (Am) diastolic mitral annular velocities were also assessed for changes. Results: Transmitral E and A velocities and the E/A ratio decreased significantly after HD (p
