Filter by:Thrice weekly hemodialysis has been the standard of care all-over the world for end-stage renal disease (ESRD) requiring renal replacement therapy (RRT). Despite being in the era of precision medicine and individualized healthcare, this program doesn't take into account patients with residual kidney function (RKF) who don't require a thrice weekly hemodialysis frequency. Incremental hemodialysis (defined as twice weekly hemodialysis initiation in incident hemodialysis patients with residual kidney function) has been raised as an alternative to the conventional thrice weekly dialysis. Retrospective trials has proved safety of a twice weekly initiation with comparative efficacy to the thrice weekly program. Despite that, there is paucity of prospective observational and rarity of randomized controlled trials comparing both regimens. In this study, the investigators tend to provide a more individualized incremental hemodialysis approach to incident hemodialysis patients with residual urine volume and RKF. The investigators will compare the results to ESRD patients initiating a thrice weekly hemodialysis program.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Molidustat in dialysis subjects with renal anemia who are not treated with Erythropoiesis-Stimulating Agents (ESAs)
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of molidustat in non-dialysis subjects previously treated with Erythropoiesis-Stimulating Agents (ESAs)
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of molidustat in non-dialysis subjects with renal anemia who are not treated with Erythropoiesis-Stimulating Agents (ESAs).
The study is designed as a randomized controlled trial. The investigators hypothesize that kidney transplant recipient candidates whose donors are offered reimbursement of lost wages (treatment arm) will have a higher probability of receiving a living donor kidney transplant than those randomized to no offer of lost wage reimbursement (control arm). The study expects to demonstrate incremental living donor kidney transplants by assisting individuals who wish to be living organ donors but would be otherwise unable to do so due to the obligatory forfeit of income during the evaluation, donation surgery, and post-operative recuperation periods.
The daily energy expenditure of patients treated with peritoneal dialysis could be increased compared to the general population and promote the development of a state of undernutrition. Conversely, the absorption of glucose by transperitoneal route could contribute to the occurrence of a metabolic syndrome. The main objective is to compare DE and its variations according to the conditions (rest, sleep, meals, physical activity) in patients treated with automated DP compared to controls, in a calorimetric chamber.
Severe aortic stenosis remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality of the elderly affecting approximately 3% of elderly patients with an increasing number of patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve interventions. As part of pre-procedural planning these patients undergo CT scans and receive contrast during the procedure. These patients often have baseline renal insufficiency and are high risk of contrast induced nephropathy despite pre-hydration techniques. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of this simple and safe procedure in preventing renal injury in this particular population.
The aim of the study is to determine the effect of functional exercise and training counseling by kinesiotherapist in addition to the basic exercise program of cycling during dialysis on physical performance of dialysis patients.
The purpose of this study is to investigate experimental medication BMS-986231 in patients with different levels of kidney function.
The main purpose of our study is to investigate whether haemodialysis itself affects the efficacy of antiplatelet drugs and the effects of two different types of dialysis membranes (polysulfone membranes and polyamide membranes) on antiplatelet efficacy. A total of 60 patients with ESRD and under dual-antiplatelet treatmen for at least 5 days will be enrolled and divided into the Clopidogrel group (clopidogrel 75mg qd;aspirin 100mg qd, n=30) and the Ticagrelor group (ticagrelor 90mg bid; aspirin 100mg qd, n=30). All included patients will receive haemodialysis by two different types of dialysis membrane.Platelet aggregation of venous blood from all patients will be detected by LTA and VerifyNow immediately before and after two times of haemodialysis.
