Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) is considered to be a frequent complication of hemodialysis (HD) and is associated with symptom burden, increased incidence of access failure, cardiovascular events, and higher mortality. This systematic literature review aims to analyse studies that investigated the prevalence of IDH. A complicating factor herein is that many different definitions of IDH are used in literature.Methods: A systematic literature search from databases, Medline, Cinahl, EMBASE, and the Cochrane library to identify studies reporting on the actual prevalence of IDH was conducted. Studies were categorized by the type of definition used for the prevalence of IDH. A meta-analysis of the prevalence of IDH was performed.Results: In a meta-analysis comprising 4 studies including 1,694 patients and 4 studies including 13,189 patients, the prevalence of HD sessions complicated by IDH was 10.1 and 11.6% for the European Best Practice Guideline (EBPG) definition and the Nadir <90 definition, respectively. The proportion of patients with frequent IDH could not reliably be established because of the wide range in cutoff values that were used to identify patients with frequent IDH. There was a large variety in the prevalence of symptoms and interventions. Major risk factors associated with IDH across studies were diabetes, a higher interdialytic weight gain, female gender, and lower body weight.Conclusion: Our meta-analysis suggests that the prevalence of IDH is lower than 12% for both the EBPG and the Nadir <90 definition which is much lower than stated in most reviews.

Luchtbevochtiging is een specifiek onderdeel in de luchtbehandeling en kent een brede toepassing binnen de zorghuisvesting, met name in ziekenhuizen maar ook in de langdurige zorg. Echter, luchtbevochtiging zoals met de huidige technologie gerealiseerd is een energie-intensief proces. Deze opvallende constatering, en de wens voor duurzamere vormen van bevochtiging vormen de aanleiding om te onderzoeken wat de noodzaak van bevochtiging is en of er goede alternatieven zijn voor bevochtiging waarbij gebruik gemaakt kan worden van hernieuwbare energie in plaats van fossiele brandstoffen.
