Abstract

  • The SARS-CoV-2 infection very often affects the vasculature at the systemic level.

  • Hemodialysis patients may have increased intracranial pressure at the onset of dialysis, known as dialysis disequilibrium syndrome.

  • SARS-CoV-2 may affect cerebral vasoregulation or the blood-brain barrier beyond the acute moment.

Keywords: SARS-CoV-2, hemodialysis, COVID-19, disbalance syndrome, cranial hypertension
