Use of a dialysate sodium of 135 as compared with 138 mEq/L was associated with a small reduction in interdialytic weight gain without impact on IDH or predialysis BP, but with an increase in symptoms. Raising dialysate sodium from 135 to 140mEq/L was associated with a reduction in IDH, a small increase in interdialytic weight gain and a marked increase in predialysis BP.
