Knowledge of Cardiovascular Risk Factors in Chronic Kidney Disease Patients
The aim of this study is to assess knowledge of cardiovascular risk factors, physical activity levels, health literacy and perceptions of benefits and barriers to exercise in patients with chronic kidney disease and compare them with healthy people.
Duke APOL1 Research Biorepository
The Duke ApoL1 Nephropathy Biorepository aims to address needs within non-diabetic kidney failure research by utilizing existing and, when necessary, developing new infrastructure to support the consent of patients and the collection of dedicated samples for ApoL1 Nephropathy biorepository. The mutations in ApoL1 gene that are strongly associated with kidney …
Preference of Life-Sustaining Treatment Among Patients With End Stage Renal Disease
Although patients with kidney disease can rely on dialysis to prolong their lives, the complexity of the disease, the variability of the course of the disease, and the uncertainty of the prognosis often delay the discussion of issues at the end of life, and the deterioration of the condition often …
Decellularized Femoral Artery Allograft (Nexeon AVX) Prospective Registry
Post market registry to assess the safety and efficacy of a novel decellularized human femoral artery allograft (Nexeon AVX Decellularized Femoral Artery,
Acoustic Analysis of VA Sounds
End-stage renal disease (ESRD) is a growing global health problem, strictly connected with progressive ageing population and longer survival of patients living on renal replacement therapy. The majority of ESRD patients is on hemodialysis (HD) treatment. A successful HD procedure requires a functioning vascular access (VA) to provide safe and …
Percutaneous Peritoneal Dialysis Catheter Insertion (PREDICT)
Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is the most frequent modality of home dialysis for patients with kidney failure. Most PD catheters are placed using a laparoscopic technique. This approach requires the availability of a qualified surgeon, time in the operating theater and general anaesthesia for the patient. Thus, the laparoscopic technique is …
Kinesiophobia, Pain, Balance, Quality of Life and Mental Status in Hemodialysis Patients
The aim of our study was to investigate the relationship between kinesiophobia and pain, balance, physical performance, quality of life and mental status in patients receiving hemodialysis.
Association of Middle Molecules Clearance With HDF Volume
HDF is a dialysis technique which involves diffusion and convection. HDF with high convection volume has consistently shown to improve survival in dialysis patients in number of robust RCTs. The precise reason of this survival benefit remains unclear. The investigators hypothesize that this survival benefit with high volume HDF is …
PReSeRVE-HD: Observational Study of the Merit HeRO® Graft and Super HeRO® in Patients on Hemodialysis
The goal of this observational study is to increase the understanding of the safety and performance of Merit Medical's HeRO Graft System (HeRO) and Super HeRO Adaptor and Support Seal System (Super HeRO) devices. This study includes adults that are being treated with one of these devices as part of …
The Epidemiology and Pathophysiology of Kidney Disease in HFpEF With Obesity
This research study wants to learn about Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) with Obesity, and Heart Failure with preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF) and better ways to evaluate these diseases. HFpEF means that the heart is not able to fill properly with blood while it is resting so the amount of blood …
