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 …
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 …
Intravascular Ultrasound in Patients With End-stage Renal Disease on Dialysis
Hemodialysis represents a life line of patients with end stage renal disease, who are commonly maintained on hemodialysis through catheters. Prolonged exposure to these catheters eventually damages the walls of veins, which results in stenosis at the local site. This condition is called central venous stenosis (CVS) and affects number …
Activated Charcoal Use in Chronic Kidney Disease Patients
Hyperphosphatemia management is initially based on restricting dietary phosphorus intake. Hyperphosphatemia is almost always seen in patients on dialysis and may contribute to progressive vascular calcification. Considering that activated charcoal is generally well-tolerated and may have a favorable side effect profile compared to conventional phosphate binders, it presents a promising …
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
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.
Blood Flow Conditions and Sounds in AVFs
This is a prospective non-pharmacological interventional study aimed at investigating the relationship between the blood flow condition and the arteriovenous fistula (AVF) sound, with the ultimate aim of predicting the AVF clinical, in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) who require the creation of a vascular access for extracorporeal circulation.
Moda-flx Hemodialysis System™ Under Professional Care Settings by Trained Individuals and At Home by Participants
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Moda-flx Hemodialysis System™ when used Under Professional Care Settings by trained individuals and At Home by trained Participants and Care Partners
Oral Intradialytic Amino Acid Supplementation to Vitalize End-stage Kidney Disease Patients on Hemodialysis
The study will test and compare the efficacy of a single essential amino acid valine with a combination of essential amino acids (EAA) supplement on fatigue, frailty, and cognitive function in end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD) treatment.
An Extension to Assess the Effect of Expanded Dialysis on Patient Reported Symptoms Using LEVIL
Investigators know that many patients who are on dialysis suffer from burden of unwanted symptoms, which can affect quality of life. The understanding and treatment of symptom burden by healthcare providers is limited and should be recognized as a high priority in the care of the dialysis population. In this …
