Ultrafiltration rates, Intradialytic hypotension
Brief summary
Finding relationship between different ultrafiltration rates and intradialytic hypotension in attempt to find the optimal cut off points.
Detailed description
This observational study will be carried upon hemodialysis patients with different ultrafiltration rates at each session to study the association between ultrafiltration rates and intradialytic hypotension. Thus identifying the optimal cut off of ultrafiltration rate points for each patient
