Why Does Blood Pressure Rise After Dialysis?

High blood pressure after dialysis may be caused by anuria, imbalance of water and electrolytes, or intracranial thrombosis leading to abnormal blood pressure regulation center. When blood pressure is high after dialysis, it is important to remain calm and not panic. It is essential to reduce the water load in the body. If the blood pressure remains high, it is necessary to take antihypertensive drugs, adhere to a low-salt diet, and perform appropriate exercise.

1. Most patients undergoing hemodialysis are anuric, have a high effective circulating blood volume, and have a large fluid load in the body, leading to symptoms of hypertension.

2. Many patients undergoing hemodialysis experience imbalance of water and electrolytes, with severe water and sodium retention in the body, which can cause symptoms of high blood pressure.

3. Patients undergoing hemodialysis have a high incidence of thrombosis. If intracranial thrombosis occurs and causes abnormalities in the blood pressure regulation center, it can lead to sudden malignant hypertension.

1. Firstly, hemodialysis should be performed to enhance ultrafiltration and dehydration to reduce the water load in the body, and the blood pressure will naturally decrease.

2. If the blood pressure remains elevated after thorough water removal, it is necessary to adjust the antihypertensive medication to lower the blood pressure.

3. It is important to maintain a low-salt diet and perform appropriate exercise regularly.

4. Keep a calm and relaxed mindset, and avoid emotional stress.
