    Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) occurred in 11.7% of hemodialysis sessions, with 26.3% of patients experiencing frequent episodes.

  • 2

    Anxiety was present in 30.4%, depression in 44.3%, and poor sleep quality in 39.9% of the 467 patients studied.

  • 3

    Frequent IDH was significantly associated with higher scores of anxiety, depression, and poor sleep quality (P<0.05).

  • 4

    The study highlights the need for integrating hemodynamic monitoring with psychological and sleep assessments in MHD care.

  • 5

    Further longitudinal studies are necessary to clarify causal mechanisms and evaluate interventions for IDH and psychological symptoms.
