NCT ID: NCT02806089 Completed - Clinical trials for Chronic Kidney Disease

Determinants of Muscle Strength in Chronic Kidney Disease

Start date: January 4, 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Aim of this study is to determine in chronic kidney disease patients: - the involvement of malnutrition inflammation and atherogenesis syndrome (increase in C reactive protein and decrease in serum albumin) on voluntary muscle strength impairment - the relationship between voluntary muscle strength and muscle mass - the relationship between voluntary muscle strength and lean body mass - the correlation between voluntary muscle strength and physical activity

NCT ID: NCT02805348 Completed - Clinical trials for Chronic Kidney Disease

Post-marketing Surveillance of Bixalomer in Patients With Pre-dialysis Chronic Kidney Disease

Start date: June 1, 2016
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The objective of this study is to assess the long-term safety and efficacy of bixalomer under post-marketed setting.

NCT ID: NCT02803541 Completed - Clinical trials for Chronic Kidney Disease

Does a Mainstream Summer Camp Experience Improve Pediatric Kidney Patients' Physical Fitness and Self Concept?

Start date: June 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Purpose: Most children and adolescents with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have much less physical endurance than their age matched peers, are at high risk for premature cardiovascular disease, and have a poor self image in part due to limited peer contact. Sustained exercise in adults with CKD improves endurance and decreases cardiovascular risk. Minimal data exists in pediatric CKD patients. This study will show whether 12 days of increased exercise at a summer camp will improve endurance as measured by the distance walked in 6 minutes and self concept as measured by a short standardized questionaire (Harter scale). The study will occur at the Frost Valley YMCA in the Catskills where in 2, 12 day sessions a total of 25-30 kidney campers are mainstreamed in the general camp population of about 500. Mainstreaming means that the kidney camper will live in a cabin with 8-10 age matched peers and participate as much as possible in all camp activities with their bunkmates. The kidney program at Frost Valley provides hemo and peritoneal dialysis, as well as caring for children with less advanced CKD and post transplant. Participants will have activity measured before and duringcamp by wearing a pedometer. The distance walked in 6 minutes (a 6 minutewalk test) will be measured at onset and completion of the 12 day camp experience. A standardized questionaire on self concept will also be administered at the onset and completion of camp.

NCT ID: NCT02792283 Completed - Clinical trials for Chronic Kidney Disease

Platelet Function in Hemodialysis Patient

Start date: January 28, 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The objective is to evaluate the function of the platelet in patients undergoing hemodialysis. The investigators will use the assay called PFA-100, an in vitro whole blood assay with three pathways of platelet activation to describe a platelet response profile. The hypothesis is that patients undergoing hemodialysis present a platelet dysfunction, that may be reversed by hemodialysis. The effect of heparin, used during hemodialysis session to anticoagulate the hemodialyzer, on platelet function will be assessed.

NCT ID: NCT02787161 Completed - Clinical trials for Chronic Kidney Disease

Impact of HemoDiaFIltration on Physical Activity and Self- Reported Outcomes

HDFIT
Start date: August 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This is a randomized controlled clinical trial that will analyze the impact of high volume online HDF in comparison to high-flux HD on measured physical activity.

NCT ID: NCT02778269 Completed - Diabetes Clinical Trials

Predicting Hypoglycaemia and Arrhythmias in the Patient With Diabetes and CKD - Validation Study

HypoArrhythmia
Start date: June 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) exhibit an excessive risk for cardiac arrhythmias, in particular sudden cardiac death (SCD). Various studies have shown that hypoglycemic episodes are strong predictors of cardiovascular mortality in both type 1 and type 2 diabetic patients. Experimental data and small clinical studies link hypoglycemia with ECG changes and SCD, but little is known about the direct association of hypoglycemic events and/or rapid swings in blood glucose with arrhythmias in this high risk population. Ideally, an algorithm should help to identify patients at risk for hypoglycemia-associated arrhythmias and SCD, but hitherto systematic analyses of blood glucose values and 12-channel ECGs are lacking in these patients. In this validation study a 12-lead ECG T-shirt consisting of textile electrodes and a data logging device wich can record long-term 12-lead ECG data will be tested. The purpose of the T-shirt is to improve the patient's comfort for long-term recordings and to prevent adverse effects of regular ECG electrodes. Current systems are limited by the use of ECG electrodes involving disadvantages like severe direct side effects on the skin such as rash and bullous lesions as well as slipping electrodes. By the means of the proposed ECG T-shirt those drawbacks will be avoided.

NCT ID: NCT02756520 Completed - Clinical trials for Chronic Kidney Disease

Observational Study on CKD Treatment With a Ketosteril Supplemented Protein-restricted Diet (Keto-024-CNI)

Start date: September 2016
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The purpose of this study is to characterize the patient and disease profile under the influence of a protein-restricted diet supplemented with keto acids/amino acids (KA/AA), focusing on the progression of chronic renal insufficiency, calcium and phosphorus metabolism, nutritional status, patient compliance to diet and Ketosteril intake as well as the persistent dietary education to ensure compliance in a large group of pre-dialysis patients.

NCT ID: NCT02754986 Completed - Clinical trials for Chronic Kidney Disease on Hemodialysis

Quantification of Autonomic Nervous Activity During Hemodialysis

Start date: March 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study assesses autonomic nervous system function by power spectral analysis of RR interval dynamics in ultrafiltration subjects without blood pressure variation.

NCT ID: NCT02753894 Completed - Clinical trials for Chronic Kidney Disease Patients on Hemodialysis With Hyperphosphatemia

Dose Range-finding Study of ASP1585 in Chronic Kidney Disease Patients on Hemodialysis With Hyperphosphatemia

Start date: January 2008
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The objective of this study is to examine the clinical dose range of ASP1585 based on the efficacy, safety, and feasibility of treatment in chronic kidney disease patients on hemodialysis with hyperphosphatemia.

NCT ID: NCT02753426 Completed - Clinical trials for Chronic Kidney Disease

A Trial of Doxycycline in Renal Disease

ADORE
Start date: April 2016
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this trial is to evaluate whether subantimicrobial-dose of doxycycline (20mgBID) will affect serum and urine biomarkers of fibrosis in patients with pre-dialysis chronic kidney disease.
