Impaired arterial baroreflex function has been associated with an increased risk of ventricular arrhythmia and sudden death. This has also been suggested for patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) who are at high risk for cardiovascular morbidity. The aim of this study was to investigate the arterial baroreflex function in CRF patients with emphasis on analyzing the time during which the arterial baroreflex is active, the baroreflex effectiveness index (BEI).
