- Abstract:
- During hemodialysis (HD), patients frequently show hemodynamic instability and symptoms such as nausea and chest pain. This may raise the suspicion of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). At the same time, diagnosis of AMI in this setting is challenging since HD patients less often present with typical symptoms and are more likely to present with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. Thus, the diagnosis more heavily relies on cardiac troponins (cTn). However, there is no study systematically examining the effect of different HD modalities on cTn kinetics during HD, thus we aimed to explore intradialytic changes of cTn.
