Objective:Hemodialysis patients have premature arterial stiffness, and the relationship between pulse wave velocity (PWV) and blood pressure (BP) may be different than in other hypertensives. Previous studies showed that when BP decrease is accompanied by PWV decrease the survival is improved. The a
