Effect of Kidney Replacement Therapy with Polymethylmethacrylate Membranes on Pruritus-related Quality of Life in Patients Receiving Maintenance Haemodialysis
This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effect of polymethylmethacrylate dialysis membranes use on the intensity of pruritus in patients with CKD stage 5D receiving maintenance hemodialysis. The main question it aims to answer is: Does the use of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) membranes reduce the intensity of pruritus in dialysis …
A Randomized Controlled Trial of Thyroid Hormone Supplementation in Hemodialysis Patients
Hypothyroidism, defined by elevated thyrotropin (TSH) levels, is a common endocrine complication in chronic kidney disease patients, and prior evidence shows that higher TSH levels, even within the normal laboratory range, are strongly associated with impaired quality of life and cardiovascular disease in this population. Levothyroxine is one of the …
Bupropion for Fatigue in End-stage Kidney Disease Patients on Hemodialysis
Fatigue is the most common symptom reported by end-stage kidney disease patients on maintenance hemodialysis. Unfortunately, there currently is no medical management for this overwhelming feeling of tiredness. As a result, patients continue to suffer with poor quality of life and impaired daily activities. The purpose of this pilot trial …
Neutrophil Gelatinase-associated Lipocalin VS Vascular Calcification in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients
The goal of this observational study or clinical trial is to learn about the effect of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) on vascular calcification in maintenance hemodialysis patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT). The main question it aims to answer is: the predictive effects of blood NGAL level on the efficacy of …
Expanded Hemodialysis Versus High-Volume Online Hemodiafiltration for Uremic Toxin Removal
People with advanced kidney disease need dialysis to remove waste products from the blood. Some of these waste products, called uremic toxins, are small, while others are medium-sized and more difficult to remove. Poor removal of these toxins may contribute to symptoms and long-term complications in patients on dialysis. Two …
Technology Assisted Collaborative Care Intervention to Improve Patient-centered Outcomes in Dialysis Patients
The goal of this study is to learn if a collaborative care intervention of pharmaco-therapy and/or cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), delivered in a real-world setting, improves symptoms of pain, fatigue and/or depression.
The Efficacy and Safety of Dapagliflozin in Improving Heart Failure in Dialysis Patients
Dialysis patients have a higher incidence of cardiovascular events and require more effective measures to delay the progression of heart failure. Many studies have shown that dapagliflozin has cardioprotective effect, but most studies focus on non-dialysis patients with eGFR more than 20ml/min/1.73m2. However, the data on patients with eGFR less …
Intermittent ADVOS vs. Hemodialysis in Non-intensive Care Patients With Liver Dysfunction
In the planned randomized controlled prospective pilot study, we aim to evaluate ADVOS compared with conventional hemodialysis regarding the elimination of protein-bound toxins in patients with therapy-refractory hepatorenal syndrome. The study will be performed in a regular non-ICU ward with a large experience in the use of the ADVOS therapy.
Tissue Markers Predictive of Early Stenosis in the Arterovenous Fistula for Hemodialysis
The study involves the recruitment of two populations. POPULATION 1 (surgical sample of excess venous segment): at least 75 consecutive patients, enrolled according to the inclusion criteria and subjected to first AVF surgery as part of the normal care pathway, at the Metropolitan Vascular Surgery Unit, Dir. Prof. Mauro Gargiulo …
Aerobic Versus Resistive Intradialytic Training Effect on Atherogeinc Index in Hemodialysis Patients
the goal of the clinical trial is to study the effect of aerobic and resistive exercises on atherogenic index in hemodialysis patients the study will include three groups of both sex the first group will participate in aerobic exercise ,the second group will participate in resistive exercise and the third …
