Xeltis Hemodialysis Access (aXess) Conduit: aXess-E Study
A prospective, single arm, non-randomized feasibility study to confirm the safety and performance of the Xeltis Hemodialysis Access conduit, aXess-E, in subjects older than 18 years with end-stage renal disease, who plan to undergo hemodialysis for at least the first 6 months after study access creation.
Comparison of Efficacy Between Nighttime and Daytime Peritoneal Dialysis
Background: Compared with continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD), nocturnal continuous cyclic peritoneal dialysis (NCPD) uses a machine to exchange fluid to perform dialysis at night, allowing patients to work or study normally during daytime. Since the dialysis fluid retention time of NCPD patients is shorter than that of CAPD, this …
Effect of Modifying Magnesium Concentration in Citrate-enriched Dialysate on Hemodialysis-associated Thromboinflammation
This clinical trial investigates whether the composition of dialysate influences hemodialysis-associated thromboinflammation. Specifically, it evaluates the effects of magnesium concentration and acid type in dialysate on immune cell activation and thromboinflammatory responses. Patients participating to the multicentric pilot OMAGOD trial will be invited to participate to this monocentric plus study. …
Integrated Patient Care Intradialysis Programme in Hemodialysis Through a Virtual Health Platform
There is wide evidence regarding the weak points of end-stage Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients in hemodialysis, and they include three intervention aspects: exercise, nutrition and psychological support. Evidence shows that exercise for patients in hemodialysis results in increased survival rate, functional capacity, strength and health-related quality of life. Additionally, …
Denosumab Treatment in CKD Patients at High Risk of Fracture
Objective: To verify the efficacy and safety of denosumab in the prevention and treatment of CKD-MBD in CKD patients with high risk of fracture. Methods: A cohort of CKD patients with high risk of fracture was established and followed up for long periods (≥24 months). Patients with CKD3b-5D stage and …
HED-Start: Evaluating a Positive Skills Intervention for Patients New on Haemodialysis
Hemodialysis patients often experience barriers and misperceptions that hinder adjustment to life on dialysis. This study seeks to explore a group-based intervention (titled HED-Start) developed to improve self-care and emotional wellbeing among incident hemodialysis patients.
Sodium Zirconium Cyclosilicate to Allow Liberal Fruit and Vegetable Intake for Patients With CKD Stage 3b and 4
Rationale: Several studies have shown that higher urinary potassium excretion (as proxy for potassium intake) is associated with better kidney outcomes, lower blood pressure and improved survival. These associations are also observed in patients with (advanced) CKD. However, application in daily practice in patients with CKD, is impaired by the …
Theophylline Prophylaxis During Hypothermia to Limit Neonatal Nephron Damage
Acute kidney injury is a significant complication for infants who experience hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy, being associated with increased rates of death and prolonged hospitalization. This pilot study of theophylline administration soon after birth for the prevention of kidney injury will lay the foundation for the conduct of a larger clinical …
Effect of an Intervention to Prevent Acute Kidney Injury Versus Standard Care in High-risk Patients After Major Surgery
There is no specific therapy for acute kidney injury. It is presumed that supportive measures improve the care and outcome of patients with acute kidney injury. To investigate whether an implementation of a supportive extended care "bundle" in high-risk patients for persistent acute kidney injury (AKI) can reduce the occurrence …
A Study of Facilitators and Barriers to Improve Acute Kidney Injury in Children Through Mobile Health Intervention
The purpose of this study is to improve patient-centered care for acute kidney injury (AKI) in order to decrease the adverse health outcomes associated with this common condition.
