Filter by:The primary aim of this early feasibility clinical trial is to assess the biochemical safety of dialysate regeneration with the optimised PAK HDsorbent cartridge in a limited number (n=3) of participants and treatments (one therapy per subject). As a secondary aim, we will assessthe therapy efficacy of the PAK HD sorbent therapy in short-daily hemodialysis (SDHD) and compare it to that of conventional CHD underthe same therapy settings. Following up from the preceding FIH trial, this continuation aims at demonstrating that the optimised PAK HD sorbent system has overcome previous problems of increased dialysate acidity and provides improved control over the patient's acid-base balance.
The goal of this observational study is to investigate and compare the prevalence of forward head , hyper kyphosis and balance in hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis patients. The main questions it mains to answer are: What is the prevalence of forward head posture in hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis patients? What is the prevalence of hyper kyphosis in hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis patients? Is there any relation between postural abnormalities and physical function in hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis patients? Participants will answer 2 questionnaires and will do some functional tests.
This study is a retrospective cohort study aimed at evaluating the impact of autologous arteriovenous fistula (AVF) on the heart, especially the left atrial structure, in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) through a retrospective cohort study. The aim is to further clarify the relationship between the establishment of AVF and the occurrence of atrial fibrillation, and provide a theoretical basis for exploring the relevant mechanisms of AVF induced atrial fibrillation in the future.
Background: Hemodialysis affects patients' lives and is associated with social, occupational, psychological, and societal problems. Mind-body interventions (MBIs), like mindfulness meditation, have been gaining popularity in the health sector. Pain, sleep quality, and self-esteem have all been positively impacted by MBIs in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Health care providers may be able to provide more thorough care if they are aware of these interventions. Purpose: To assess the impact of mindfulness meditation on pain, quality of sleep, and self-esteem, and self-management in patients with ESRD undergoing hemodialysis in Jordan. Methods: An experimental repeated measure, randomized, parallel control design was conducted on 60 patients with ESRD undergoing hemodialysis between March and June 2023 in the dialysis center at Alkarak governmental hospital, Jordan. Participants were randomly assigned to the experimental (N =30) and control groups (N =30) using a simple random assignment method. The experimental group practiced mindfulness meditation for 30 minutes three times per week for five weeks during their hemodialysis treatments. The control group's patients continued to receive hemodialysis treatment as usual, with three hemodialysis sessions for five weeks without any additional intervention. The study variables for both groups were measured at baseline (T0), two weeks after intervention (T1), and at the end of intervention (T2). Variables were measured by the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS), the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES-M) questionnaire. Descriptive statistics like frequency, mean, and standard deviation were used to describe participants. The repeated measures ANOVA (within-subject) tests were used to examine the study hypotheses.
Background: Hemodialysis is considered as an effective therapy to remove harmful wastes from the body and to improve the quality of life in patients suffering from end-stage renal disease (ESRD). However, patients who receive hemodialysis perceive various stressors that are harmful to their physical and psychological well-being, particularly the immune system. Therefore, it is necessary to implement effective and practical therapeutic strategies to enhance the quality of life in this population. Mindfulness-based intervention is an effective mind-body connection program that is inadequately used in patients undergoing hemodialysis. Objective: The current study aimed to investigate the effect of mindfulness-based intervention on physical and psychological symptoms (e.g., stress, anxiety, and depression) and pro-inflammatory biomarker levels (e.g., TNF, interleukin-6, and C-reactive protein) in patients with ESRD undergoing hemodialysis. Method: Repeated measures, randomized, control experimental design was used. A convenience non-probability sampling technique to select the sample from the hemodialysis unit in the Princess Haya Bint AL_Hussine Hospital. The participants who were eligible and agreed to participate were randomly distributed into experimental (n = 31) and control (n = 30) groups. During their hemodialysis sessions, the experimental group' participants practiced 30-minute mindfulness-based intervention; three times a week for eight weeks). The Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS), Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale - 21 (DASS-21), Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-15), and serum blood levels (for tumor necrosis factor, interleukin-6, and C-reactive protein) were used to measure the dependent variables for both groups at baseline, after five weeks of the intervention, and at its end (eight weeks).
The goal of this observational study is to assess validity and reliability of Persian Version of Low Physical Activity Questionnaire. The main questions it mains to answer are: What is the level of physical activity in hemodialysis patients? Is Persian Version of Low Physical Activity Questionnaire, Valid to assess physical activity levels of dialysis patients? Is Persian Version of Low Physical Activity Questionnaire, reliable? Participants will answer 3 questionnaires and will do some functional tests.
Nonadherence to fluid restriction is a significant issue among hemodialysis patients globally, with numerous adverse health outcomes. These outcomes include increased intradialytic weight gain, acid-base and electrolyte imbalances, and decreased mental health. This study aimed to determine the effects of a fluid distribution timetable on adherence to fluid restriction among patients with end-stage renal disease undergoing hemodialysis. The study utilized a single-blind, randomized-controlled efficacy trial design. Selected ESRD patients undergoing hemodialysis are then randomized using computer-generated sequences of randomly permuted blocks stratified according to sex to receive the intervention or the control group. Adherence to fluid restriction was measured using the dialysis thirst inventory and intradialytic weight gain. The variables were computed using One-way Repeated Measures Multivariate Analysis of Variance and Multivariate Analysis of Covariance. Secondary outcomes included baseline patient demographic profile and was compared according to group allocation. Both group were followed up for four weeks, assessing the outcome measures during the third hemodialysis session for each week
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of MK-2060 after a single dose intravenous (IV) administration in Japanese older participants with end stage renal disease (ESRD) on dialysis. There is no primary hypothesis for this study.
The goal of this observational study is to compare hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis patients. The main questions it mains to answer are: - What is the level of physical activity in hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis patients? - What is the level of quality of life of hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis patients? - Is there any relation between inactivity and quality of life in hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis patients? Participants will answer 2 questionnaires and will do some functional tests.
1. To detect in more detail the incidence of infective endocarditis in patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) on hemodialysis. 2. To compare the relationship between different forms of haemodialysis access type and the related incidence of infective endocarditis. 3. To determine individual risk factors, including type of vascular haemodialysis access, previous valve lesion and immunocompromised patients.
