%A El-Magbri, Awad %A Rashid, Shaukat %A Brar, Balhinder %D 2018 %T Running on the Empty: hemodialysis patients with fluid overload, low blood pressure, and intractable congestive heart failure %K %X The authors presented a case of congestive heart failure in a patient with end-stage renal disease on hemodialysis. The patient has low blood pressure and fluid overload making removal of the fluid by hemodialysis challenging task. The authors put a theory forward for discrepancies in the pressure between the two sides of the heart and propose a surgical procedure “septetomy of the inter-atrial septum” that might resolve the issue of hypotension on dialysis patients with fluid overload. %U https://esmed.org/MRA/mra/article/view/1712 %J Medical Research Archives %0 Journal Article %R 10.18103/mra.v6i3.1712 %V 6 %N 3 %@ 2375-1924 %8 2018-03-17
