Filter by:A 12-week, prospective, multicenter, open-label pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) will be carried out to determine the feasibility, acceptability and potential clinical efficacy of a newly developed mobile diet app among CKD populations at different stages in Malaysia. Participants will be randomly assigned into either (i) intervention group (mobile diet app) or (ii) control group (dietary counseling using conventional pamphlet).
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) induces many metabolic troubles especially for the advanced CKD (stage 3b-5) patients and their prevalence and importance grow with the deterioration of the glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Among them, muscle wasting is common and multifactorial, partially explained by an imbalance between protein catabolism and synthesis. Muscular strength is also affected beyond the reduction of the lean body mass, resulting in profound fatigue. The present study seeks to quantify the prevalence of low muscular strength production (dynapenia) in a cohort of elderly patients with advanced CKD, through a maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) handgrip test compared to control data available in the literature, matched in term of age and sex. It also aims to investigate the link between the reported fatigue (subjective) and the evolution of the MVC, called critical force (fcrit) during a fatiguing task (objective fatigability).
The presence of periodontitis has been hypothesized as a risk factor for several systemic outcomes, including chronic kidney disease (CKD). Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of non-surgical periodontal treatment on CRP levels and quality of life of patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis (HD) in Santa Maria-RS.
This is a descriptive single arm open-label interventional trial lasting 6 weeks aiming to test if a low protein healthy K-rich diet with fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and nuts with concomitant use of new potassium binder (SZC) can be safely prescribed to patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stages 4 and 5 with hyperkalemia. Thirty adult CKD patients with hyperkalemia will be included. In the first 3 weeks of the study the plasma K will be normalized with the use of SZC and then the participants will receive a fruit basket during 3 weeks. SZC will be continued thru out the study. Primary end points will be changes in patient satisfaction with treatment, patient symptom list, and intake of energy and protein before and after the stabilization and healthy diet phase. Secondary outcomes will include changes in quality of life, obstipation and circulating gut microbiota-related uremic toxins.
The investigators aimed to evaluate the association between the duration and stage of acute kidney injury (AKI) and the development of chronic kidney disease during postoperative three years in patients undergoing cardiac or thoracic aortic surgery.
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a serious and growing public health problem. The purpose of this study is to find out if an educational worksheet, called the Encounter Decision Intervention (EDI), combined with health coaching helps CKD patients improve their blood pressure and other health outcomes. The research team hypothesizes that the intervention group will have greater improvement in CKD outcomes than the control group.
Peritoneal dialysis (PD) technology is available but has not been tested in the real world. Therefore, the aim of this study is to test the utility of telemedicine in reducing mortality, hospitalizations, unscheduled visits, and cost derived from preventable complications. Incident patients to PD treatment will be followed from various hospitals in Mexico City and Guadalajara. Direct medical costs will be evaluated, along with unplanned hospital visits and complications over 2 years using the Claria telemedicine apparatus from Baxter Laboratories.
This is a phase III, multicenter, multi-country, open-label, randomized, active-controlled clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Desidustat versus Darbepoetin for the treatment of anemia in patients with CKD who are not on dialysis. The study will be conducted over a period of up to 30 weeks.
The evolution of chronic kidney disease (CKD) causes a systemic upheaval on the body and a deep fatigue is very often described by patients (50-70% of the patients) even before the start of dialysis (pre-dialysis). This fatigue has many origins, and one of them probably stems from a deterioration of neuromuscular abilities. Very few studies have examined the physiological aspects of neuromuscular fatigue in pre-dialysis patients, and shedding light on potential deficits at this level would allow safe and efficient implementation of adapted physical activity programs. Our study aims to characterize the pathophysiology of neuromuscular capabilities in chronic advanced renal failure in pre-dialysis patients.
The purpose of the study is to investigate whether a high phosphorous containing meal causes acute changes in p-phosphate levels in patients with dialysis-dependent kidney failure.
