The results suggested that depressed HRV is associated with fluid overload and that normalization of hydration status is accompanied by improved HRV.

Fluid Withdrawal During Dialysis Improves Prognosis
Fluid overload and
alterations in the autonomic nervous system are known risk factors for cardiovascular
morbidity and mortality in patients on chronic hemodialysis. This small observational study published in BMC Nephrology found a significant correlation between heart
rate variability indices and fluid overload, suggesting that
appropriate management of fluid withdrawal during dialysis can translate into a
better prognosis.
The results suggested that depressed HRV is associated with fluid overload and that normalization of hydration status is accompanied by improved HRV.
