Özet
Background Echocardiography provides insight to the management of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and might be valuable in assessing the prognosis. We evaluated the predictive value of echocardiography along with clinical findings in a low-risk hemodialysis (HD) population who had been treated with strict salt restriction strategy for blood pressure control.
