Relationship Between Blood Pressure and Pulse Wave Velocity Measurements in Peritoneal Dialysis

Greece40 participantsStarted 2018-07-18

Plain-language summary

This study evaluates the relationship between Ambulatory Aortic and Branchial blood pressure vs Office blood pressure measurements with the changes in arterial stiffness indices, in long-term Peritoneal Dialysis (PD) patients. These parameters will be monitored both cross-sectionally at the start of the study and prospectively over a 6 month period.
