Exercise Training and Kidney Transplantation

RENALTX
Start date: September 30, 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the physiological and molecular effects of exercise training in transplant recipients. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Can exercise training improve physical fitness and muscle strength in transplant recipients? 2. Can exercise training modulate inflammatory profile, hormones, lipid profile, and exercise-induced molecules in transplant recipients? 3. Can exercise training improve blood pressure and endothelial health in transplant patients? Participants will be invited to an exercise training program 6-month after their transplant surgery. Body composition, physical assessment, and blood draw will be assessed at baseline and 12-weeks after exercise or control regimen. Researchers will compare exercise group vs. routine care group to see if exercise training impact the health-related outcomes of this population.

NCT ID: NCT06165211 Completed - Fatigue Clinical Trials

Nature-Based Sound Application For Hemodialysis Patients

NBSAFHP
Start date: September 15, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Chronic renal failure is one of the most common chronic diseases in the world and in our country. Hemodialysis is the most commonly used treatment method in the treatment of chronic renal failure. In addition to its important benefits, hemodialysis treatment causes many problems such as fatigue, bone and joint pain, insomnia, mood disorders, sexual problems, paresthesia and nausea. In addition, patient comfort is adversely affected due to physical, psychosocial and environmental problems in hemodialysis patients. Elimination of symptoms in hemodialysis patients and ensuring patient comfort are important components of quality nursing care. For this purpose, it is reported that non-pharmacological evidence-based approaches such as listening to music, yoga, and exercise are used in the literature. Although there are studies examining the effectiveness of listening to music, the number of studies examining the effectiveness of nature-based sounds in hemodialysis patients is quite limited. It is known that sounds such as bird, ocean, water, wind sound have beneficial effects on human health in terms of physiological and psychosocial aspects. This project is to determine the effect of listening to nature sounds during hemodialysis treatment on fatigue and patient comfort. Type of Study: The project was planned as a randomized controlled experimental study. Population and Sample: The population of the study consists of patients who are treated in the Hemodialysis Unit of Bartin State Hospital. The sample was taken as d=0.80 power=0.90, α=0.05 and β=0.20, taking into account the data obtained from a similar study, and it was calculated as 30 patients in the intervention group and 30 patients in the control group, in total 60 patients. Inclusion criteria for the study: - To be receiving hemodialysis treatment for at least 6 months, - Being over 18 years old, - Not having a hearing and speaking disability, - Not have a cognitive disability. Exclusion criteria from the study: - Receiving hemodialysis treatment for less than 6 months, - Being under the age of 18, - Hearing and speech impairment, - Having a cognitive disability.

NCT ID: NCT06030050 Withdrawn - Chronic Pain Clinical Trials

Animal Assisted Intervention for Hemodialysis Outpatients

Start date: November 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical trial is to understand if and how an animal-assisted intervention [AAI] using therapy dogs can support hemodialysis [HD] patients' treatment adherence and enhance their well-being. The main objectives are: - Objective 1: Determine if the AAI impacts patients' HD treatment adherence (primary outcome is number of unplanned missed treatments no due to hospitalization). - Objective 2: Evaluate if the AAI impacts patients' psychosocial well-being (secondary outcomes are stress, pain, mood, QOL). - Objective 3: Examine potential mechanistic biomarkers that underpin human-animal bonding (hormones tied to stress and bonding). (exploratory aim) - Objective 4: Understand patients' subjective experiences of the AAI. Participants will be asked to engage in several research tasks, including: - assessments - therapy dog visits - monthly blood draws - focus group Researchers will compare how the treatment group (those who receive 2 dogs visits per week) and the control group (those who receive 0 dog visits per week) to see if the AAI impacts treatment adherence and psychosocial well-being.

NCT ID: NCT05562869 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Chronic Kidney Failure

Belatacept as a Replacement for CNIs 3 to 12 Months Post-transplantation in Patients With Early Graft Dysfunction

BELASBRIDGE
Start date: November 1, 2022
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Calcineurin inhibitors (CNI) remain the standard treatment in renal transplantation to prevent rejection. Currently the main limitation of kidney transplantation is the occurrence of chronic graft dysfunction due to the CNI nephrotoxicity. Thus, strategies to minimize or stop CNI have been developed as belatacept, a fusion protein (CTLA4-Ig) blocking the ligand of the main CD28 costimulatory molecule. In the original phase III trial, used de novo in combination with MMF (without CNI) belatacept allowed to obtain a better renal function as soon as 1 year and a better graft and patient survival after 7 years. Despite these excellent results, belatacept has not become the gold standard due to a higher incidence of early rejection. In addition, belatacept is not covered by the french social security policy, because benefits are considered insufficient with respect to the cost. Patients with poor early graft function are a preferred indication of belatacept. It is then used instead of CNI at 3 months post-transplant allowing to improve kidney function without over-risk of rejection. Currently after conversion, belatacept is maintained indefinitely due to the supposed CNI chronic nephrotoxicity. However this one is more and more questionable. Thus, the investigators assume that in patients with poor function at 3 months posttransplantation the belatacept's benefit could be obtained by a transient replacement of CNI by belatacept from 3 to 12 months post-transplantation. It is the feasibility of this strategy and its medico-economic impact that the investigators wish to study.

NCT ID: NCT05445219 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Chronic Kidney Failure

Identifying Therapeutic Hemodialysis Targets Through Cerebrovascular Reactivity; RESPIRACT 2

RESPIRACT 2
Start date: May 20, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Patients with chronic kidney disease receiving hemodialysis (HD) suffer from higher rates of brain vascular disease and decreased cognition than the general population. One way to assess brain vascular health and response to HD stress, is to test how the brain's blood flow responds to carbon dioxide (CO2) to measure Cerebrovascular Reactivity (CVR). In this study, the investigators will compare the magnitude and speed of the brain's blood flow response to a step-wise change in CO2 with hemodynamic, dialysis, and cognitive parameters. The goal of the study is to establish therapeutic targets that can be altered during the dialysis procedure to protect the brain from HD stress.

NCT ID: NCT05309291 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Chronic Kidney Failure

Theranova Randomized, Controlled, Trial (RCT) in China

Start date: June 29, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Traditional HD therapy is very effective in clearing urea and smaller middle molecules, but is limited in clearing larger middle molecules. These accumulated large middle-molecular-weight uremic toxins may cause and aggravate inflammation, atherosclerosis and calcification, which indirectly lead to the death of patients. Studies have shown that, compared to conventional high-flux HD (HF-HD), HDF that combines diffusion and convection can reduce the all-cause mortality. Compared to the conventional HF-HD, HDF can more effectively clear larger molecular toxins in one session, which may be related to the better clearance effect of HDF on middle-molecular-weight toxins Theranova's innovative Medium Cut-Off® membranes has high permeability and selectivity to uremic toxins (clearance of a molecular weight of up to 45 kDa) and can retain essential proteins, to maintain patient's albumin level during the HD treatment[9]. Its unique membrane and high cut-off characteristics expand the clearance range beyond those of flux membrane dialyzers. Theranova 400 can be widely used in most blood purification centers under conventional HD equipment and treatment modes, with the effect similar to HDF This study is to demonstrate non-inferiority of the Theranova 400 Dialyzer in hemodialysis (HD) mode (hereinafter referred to as Theranova 400) compared to hemodiafiltration (HDF), using FX 800 in HDF mode (hereinafter referred to as FX 800).
