Abstract Lower dialysate calcium (dCa) concentration and dialysate citric-acidification may positively affect calcification propensity in serum of haemodialysis (HD) patients. However, the accompanying lower ionized blood calcium concentration may lead to a prolonged cardiac action potential, which is possibly pro-arrhythmic. The aim of this study is to investigate the influence of citric-acid dialysate on the QT-interval corrected for heart rate (QTc) compared to conventional dialysate with different dCa concentrations. We conducted a four-week multicentre, randomized cross-over trial. In week one and three patients received acetic-acid dialysate with a dCa of 1.50 mmol/l (A1.5), in week two and four acetic-acid dialysate with a dCa of 1.25 mmol/l (A1.25) or citric-acid dialysate (1.0 mmol/l) with a dCa of 1.50 mmol/l (C1.5) depending on randomization. Patients had continuous ECG monitoring during one session in week one, two and four. The data of 13 patients were available for analysis. Results showed a significant though limited increase of QTc with C1.5 (from 427 to 444 ms (start to end); p = 0.007) and with A1.25 (from 431 to 449 ms; p |
