Filter by:Remote patient monitoring is a potential component for the management of chronic conditions that may provide reliable and real-time physiological measurements for clinical decision support, alerting, and patient self-management. The purpose of this study is to evaluate an UHN-built remote monitoring system for patients with complex chronic conditions called Medly.
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial designed to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamic effects of a single dose of the study drug or placebo administered subcutaneously to patients with moderate-to-severe chronic kidney disease and persistent inflammation.
The DIETary intake, death and hospitalisation in adults with end-stage kidney disease treated with HaemoDialysis (DIET-HD) study is a multinational prospective cohort study designed to evaluate the association between nutrition and dietary patterns and health outcomes in prevalent adult haemodialysis patients in Europe and South America.
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and (subsequent) acute kidney injury are frequent in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). Moreover, these patients are easily hypervolemic and susceptible for cardiac decompensation. Prevention of contrast induced nephropathy (CIN) has not yet been studied in these patients, and evidence on different strategies is urgently needed. The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of 250ml 1.4% sodium bicarbonate versus hypotone saline (0.65% sodiumchloride) hydration prior to TAVI in patients with CKD to prevent CIN.
The investigators aim to evaluate the feasibility of a resistance exercise training program among individuals with CKD and its impact on endothelial and vascular function.
This parallel-group, randomized, placebo-controlled study will examine the incidence and severity of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage III/IV following an i.v. injection of iso-osmolar iodinated contrast material iodixanol (Visipaque™ Injection 320 mgI/mL), as compared with patients who received saline and underwent a non-enhanced CT (NECT) and duplex ultrasound (US) during their scheduled post-EVAR surveillance imaging.
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects approximately 26 million Americans with many more at risk for disease development. Elevated serum phosphorus (P) and related abnormalities in P homeostasis due to progressive loss of kidney function are primary driving forces behind cardiovascular dysfunction and mortality in CKD patients. Intestinal P absorption is an critical aspect in P homeostasis but has been understudied, particularly in the early stages of CKD progression. This study aims to determine P absorption in patients with moderate CKD compared to healthy adults.
This study investigates the effects of intravenous (IV) iron sucrose therapy on blood levels of Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 (FGF23, a protein that regulates the amount of phosphate in the body) in iron deficiency anemia in healthy participants, participants with Congestive Heart Failure (CHF, where the heart does not pump adequate blood supply to the body), participants with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD, where the kidney function is reduced), and participants with CKD and CHF.
In post-dilution haemodiafiltration only synthetic membranes have been used to date. The allergy problems described with these membranes require the development of other membranes capable of performing this treatment. We describe in vivo performance and behaviour of an asymmetric cellulose triacetate(ATA™) membrane, to identify its depurative effectiveness and ease of use in clinical practice, as well as evaluate its biocompatibility in a single haemodialysis session (acute biocompatibility) and after one month of treatment (chronic).
Patients with sickle cell disease may be at risk for acute kidney injury (AKI)during sickle cell crisis (pain or acute chest syndrome). This study will evaluate the role of hemolysis during SCD crisis on the development of AKI and the role for monitoring urine biomarkers during an admission for crisis and during well clinic follow-up.
