Association between hyperlactatemia and occult cardiac failure in diabetic patients on maintenance hemodialysis.
2014
Purpose
Lactic acidosis as a consequence of high serum lactate levels may deepen the metabolic acidosis in patients with end-stage renal failure. Besides, certain antidiabetic may also cause raised lactate levels in diabetic patients. Therefore, it is obvious that the risk of hyperlactatemia is increased by folds in diabetic patients on chronic hemodialysis program. In this study, it is aimed to evaluate the frequency and the impact of increased serum lactate levels in prevalent diabetic hemodialysis patients.
