Popis: Background: In hemodialysis (HD) patients, the presence of Heart failure (HF) at the start of dialysis is a strong and independent predictor of short and long-term mortality, and its prevalence increases with declining kidney function and HD time. Left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF) is widely used as a measure of systolic function. Reduced EF (
