Impact of barometric pressure on blood pressure during dialysis: Introducing intradialytic time‐averaged cumulative systolic blood pressure (TACsBP‐inD) as a new metric

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, Volume 29, Issue 3, Page 525-534, June 2025.
Abstract Background Blood pressure is a crucial risk factor for hemodialysis patients, but the specific impact of weather factors, particularly barometric pressure, on blood pressure remains unclear. This study aims to examine the relationship between barometric pressure and blood pressure in hemodialysis patients. Methods We conducted a single‐center,
