Objective To investigate ultrafast pulse wave velocity(ufPWV) technique evaluating the stiffness of carotid wall in renal failure patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism after undergoing maintenance hemodialysis(MHD).Methods A total of 30 patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism in chronic renal failure after receiving MHD(MHD group)were enrolled.34 age and sex matched healthy volunteers were selected as control group.ufPWV was used to measure and compare the pulse wave velocity of the beginning-systole(PWV-BS) and the pulse wave velocity of the end-systole(PWV-ES).Results Compared with the control group
PWV-BS and PWV-ES of MHD group were increased significantly [(5.96±1.11)m/s vs.(5.34±1.22) m/s
(8.03±0.33) m/s vs.(6.24±0.2.5) m/s]
and the differences were statistically significant(both P<0.05).The increasing of PWV-ES was significantly higher than that of PWV-BS.Conclusion ufPWV technique can be used to quantitatively evaluate the stiffness of carotid wall in renal failure patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism after receiving MHD
which provides the prevention of cardiovascular events and references for early intervention.
