The purpose of this research study is to compare how well a wire like device disrupts and removes blood clot in your blocked dialysis graft/fistula in comparison to inflating a balloon in your access for the same purpose. The wire like device is called the Cleaner XT and has already been approved by the government/Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for this purpose. Blood clots in your dialysis access can be fairly common and prevent you from being able to get dialysis. Procedures for opening this blockage must then be performed which is why you have been sent to the hospital today. There are different ways of opening up this blockage which can including blowing up a balloon in multiple areas of the graft/fistula to squeeze the blood clot to break up the blockage or using a wire like device to break up the clot in small pieces and try to remove all of the clot from the wall of the graft/fistula.
This research is based on the hypothesis that the Hydrolink®-NV dialysis membrane could allow the realization of quality dialysis with a significant reduction in the doses of Orgaran®, or even a total cessation of the anticoagulant, in patients with chronic renal failure. with heparin-induced thrombocytopenia. Thus, this study aims to show that the use of this dialysis membrane without prior anticoagulation does not increase the risk of coagulation of the circuit and allows the realization of quality dialysis sessions.
Nutritional and metabolic alterations in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) such as inflammation, oxidative stress, dyslipidemia, and poor nutritional status which associate with poor clinical outcome can potentially be targeted and ameliorated by interventions using nutritional supplements. The investigators evaluated the effects of 8 weeks of oral supplementation with flaxseed oil and pomegranate dry extract on markers of inflammation, lipid profile and nutritional status of individuals undergoing hemodialysis (HD). The goal of this randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind clinical trial is to evaluate the effects of 8 weeks of oral supplementation with flaxseed oil and pomegranate dry extract on markers of inflammation, lipid profile and nutritional status of individuals undergoing hemodialysis (HD). Participants will be randomly assigned, in a 1:1 ratio, to supplementation group to receive twice a day 1 capsule of 1.000 mg of flaxseed oil plus 1 capsule of 600mg of pomegranate dry extract; or to placebo group, to receive twice a day 1 capsule of 1.000 mg of sunflower oil plus 1 capsule of 600mg of microcrystalline celulose.
This is a pivotal, interventional, prospective, single-arm, open-label, multi-site clinical investigation intended to support FDA clearance of the Ark based on the safety and efficacy of the device in cannulating arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) for hemodialysis procedures.
This study aims to determine whether the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) can be used as predictors of coronary heart disease (CHD) in CKD patients undergoing dialysis at Moewardi General Hospital Surakarta. It was hypothesized that NLR and PLR, which have been identified as inflammatory biomarkers, would be significantly related to increased arotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) in CKD patients undergoing dialysis. This study is an observational analytic study using a cross-sectional approach conducted at department of renal-hypertension and hemodialysis unit in Moewardi General Hospital in Surakarta, Indonesia from January to July 2022.
This research aims to assess the effect of low versus high dialysate sodium concentration during hemodialysis on dialysis recovery time
Cannulation of complex arteriovenous fistula (AVF) or graft (AVG) is a challenge to renal nurses. Ultrasound (US) guidance on central and peripheral venous access visualisation has been widely adopted in nephrology and shown to reduce complications of vascular interventions. With broader adoption of handheld US devices in clinical services, renal nurses could acquire this point-of-care technique to increase the successful cannulation rate while facilitating confidence build-up during training and practice. We aim to evaluate the use of handheld US on difficult AVF/AVG cannulation in a hospital-based dialysis unit.

An experimental study to assess the Effectiveness of Intradialytic exercise on reduction in Fatigue and Muscle Cramps and Improvement in Muscle Strength among CKD patients undergoing Maintenance Haemodialysis at dialysis unit of ILBS. Objectives Primary objective: 1.To evaluate the effectiveness of the intradialytic exercise on reduction in fatigue and muscle cramps and improvement in muscle strength among patients undergoing hemodialysis at dialysis unit of ILBS. Secondary objectives: 1. To find out the association of mean fatigue score with demographic & clinical variables of patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis after intradialytic exercise. 2. To find out the association of mean muscle cramps score with the demographic & clinical variables of patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis after intradialytic exercise. 3. To find out the association of mean muscle strength score with demographic variables & clinical variables of patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis after intradialytic exercise.
