Summary
This study followed 268 adults with end-stage kidney disease on dialysis. Each participant wore a Holter heart monitor for 7 days to track irregular heartbeats. Researchers then looked for links between those heart patterns and serious outcomes like sudden cardiac death, heart attack, or death within one year. The goal was to better understand heart risks in this vulnerable group.
