Do shorter delivered dialysis times associate with a higher and more difficult to treat blood pressure?
Fewer hours of delivered dialysis are associated with a higher systolic BP. Upon probing dry weight, compared with shorter dialysis treatment times, 4 h of delivered dialysis per session provokes reductions in systolic BP over fewer dialysis treatment sessions. Reduction of BP may lag dry-weight reduction when shorter dialysis is delivered.
Combining paracetamol i.v. with ketoprofen at the end of tonsillectomy did not reduce the proportion of the patients requiring rescue analgesia, but the number of opioid doses was less in the add-on groups.
