Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The study parameters are ISTI, delta-ISTI (respiratory variation in ISTI),<br /><br>RR-interval, delta-RR (respiratory variation in RR-interval), ISTI/RR,<br /><br>delta-ISTI/RR (respiratory variation in ISTI) systolic, diastolic and mean<br /><br>bloodpressure, haematocrit value and calf impedance. Also the occurrence of<br /><br>hypotensive periods will be recorded.</p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>Relative blood volume (RBV), total bodywater, extracellular water and calf<br /><br>extracellular resistance in order to compare parameters derived from ISTI with<br /><br>more traditional markers of haemodynamic status during haemodialyis . These<br /><br>markers will be combined in order to establish the most predictive model for<br /><br>the occurrence of intradialytic hypotension. Also descriptive and<br /><br>anthropometric data will be collected.</p><br>
