Pilot Feasibility Study of Combined Kidney and Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation to Cure End-stage Renal Disease
This pilot study of combined kidney and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation attempts to establish a protocol to induce immunological tolerance as a new strategy to prevent renal graft rejection. If successful, this strategy would restore renal function, while avoiding the risks associated with long-term standard anti-rejection therapy, and would represent …
The Effect of a Prehabilitation Exercise Program on Physical Functioning for Patients Undergoing Kidney Transplantation
Pre-operative physical functioning has been acknowledged as a factor influencing post-operative complication risk, recovery progression and mortality risk. Current guidelines have yet to focus on the pre-operative period as a potential target to improve levels of physical functioning before renal transplantation. This project proposes the introduction of an exercise intervention …
Safety and Efficacy of Empagliflozin in Hemodialysis
A 12-week, phase II, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center study to assess the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of empagliflozin versus placebo among patients initiating hemodialysis (n=60) for the treatment of end-stage kidney disease.
A Simplified Lung Ultrasound Guided Management Protocol Of Pulmonary Congestion in Hemodialysis
Pulmonary congestion secondary to volume overload or interstitial tissue inflammation is common in chronic hemodialysis patients. This pulmonary congestion occurs mainly during the period between dialysis sessions and is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular event morbidity and mortality in this population. The evaluation of this pulmonary congestion and the …
Incremental Hemodialysis: The TwoPlus Trial
This study is to prospectively compare clinical effectiveness between clinically- matched incremental hemodialysis and conventional hemodialysis in patients with incident kidney dysfunction requiring dialysis and residual kidney function. The study will enroll 350 patients on chronic hemodialysis and 140 caregivers of enrolled patients. Patients will be randomized in 1:1 ratio …
The Effect of Magnetic Stimulation on Low Back Pain Relief and Muscle Mass Maintenance in Patients With ESRD
To determine the effectiveness of magnetic stimulation application on alleviating back pain and maintaining muscle mass in patients with end-stage renal disease.
The Effect of Gum Arabic (GA) on Residual Renal Function in Adult Dialysis Patients in Abu Dhabi
Gum Arabic (GA), derived from Acacia trees, has shown potential benefits in metabolic, renal, and inflammatory conditions. This study explores the impact of GA on residual renal function in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients undergoing dialysis, as current evidence is limited.
Post Market Study for VasQ, an External Support Implant for Arteriovenous Fistula
VasQ is an external support implant for arteriovenous fistulas created for dialysis access. This is a postmarket surveillance, prospective, multi-center, randomized, controlled, open label trial enrolling 300 patients randomized into two study arms: Treatment arm: End to side fistula supported with VasQ Control: Standard of care end to side fistula
Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Amino Acid (15) Peritoneal Dialysis Solution in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients with Malnutrition.
This is a multicenter, randomized, parallel controlled Phase IV clinical study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of amino acid (15) peritoneal dialysis solution in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis with malnutrition in CAPD patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis maintenance.
Heparin-Free Chronic HemoDialysis Assessment
Intermittent hemodialysis is a complex technique which requires careful monitoring of anticoagulation levels to prevent clotting and reduce the risk of bleeding complications. Dialysis patients often exhibit hypercoagulable tendencies due to uremic state, turbulent blood flows in dialysis procedures, and thrombogenic exposure to artificial surfaces of dialysis tubing. Patients with …
