Studies on Adsorption International Learning Initiative Global
Use of sorption technologies in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis with inflammatory syndrome and clinical manifestations of uremia
Virtual Reality Intradialysis: Last vs. First Part of the Session
The main objective of this investigation is to assess if an intradialysis virtual reality exercise program during the last two hours of the hemodialysis session results in greater hemodynamic stability than exercise performed during the first two hours of the hemodialysis session. The secondary aims are to assess the impact …
Music Intervention for Dialysis Patients
The goal of this clinical trial is to examine the efficacy of both live and pre-recorded music interventions on alleviating the negative effects of dialysis treatment. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does music intervention have an effect on experienced pain, itch, anxiety, depression, and quality of life …
Hemodynamics in Chronic Hemodialysis Patients Undergoing Isolated Ultrafiltration Compared to Conventional Hemodialysis
Patients treated with hemodialysis (HD) bear increased risk of cardiovascular events, which results in high morbidity and mortality among this cohort of patients. Intradialytic hypotension (IDH), which is an independent risk factor for mortality, occurs in up to 20% of hemodialysis session and may lead to myocardial stunning and cerebral …
STarting incrEmental Prescription of Peritoneal Dialysis
Kidney failure is fatal without dialysis. Peritoneal dialysis (PD) completed at home offers greater flexibility and autonomy for patients . However, PD is often prescribed for 24 hours/day, 7 days/week for every patient starting dialysis. This practice is not evidence-informed, may be unnecessary and potentially harmful. The STEP-PD trial aims …
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 …
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 …
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.
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.
Patiromer and Diet/hrQoL in Chronic Dialysis
This is a phase III, prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single-center, pilot trial, aimed at assessing whether treatment with the oral potassium binder patiromer as compared to placebo allows withdrawal or down-titration of potassium dietary restriction without increasing the risk of hyperkalemia in chronic dialysis patients.
