Among the hemodialysis units, the global incidence of HCV infection ranges from 1.2% to 2.9%. Data regarding the long-term risk of reinfection among hemodialysis patients achieving SVR are limited. To our best knowledge, only one study assessed the long-term negativity of serum HCV RNA in hemodialysis patients who achieved SVR after IFN-based therapies. With a median follow-up of 48 months following SVR, the life-time cumulative survival for HCV RNA negativity was 86% among the 121 participants who were on maintenance dialysis. Furthermore, the life-time cumulative survival for HCV RNA negativity was 95% among the 45 participants who underwent renal transplantation from HCV-negative donors. Because the literatures regarding the long-term follow-up of viral outcome, the patient numbers to be recruited are still limited, and all studies are focused on IFN-based treatment, we aim to assess the long-term risk of HCV reinfection in hemodialysis patients attaining SVR by IFN-based or IFN-free therapies.
This study is to prospectively compare the effectiveness and safety of the two types of arteriovenous access placement (fistula or graft) in older adults with end stage kidney disease and multiple chronic conditions
Patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD), especially after having maintenance dialysis are among the highest risk of heart failure (HF), which is the most important cause that affects survival rate and quality of life. Sacubitril/Valsartan is recommended as a first-line option for treating symptomatic chronic heart failure, especially HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Sacubitril/Valsartan was reported the different effectiveness in HFrEF and HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), and the clinical trials' results are controversial in HFpEF patients. So far, there have been seven clinical trials (or subgroups of trials) that used sacubitril/valsartan in heart failure patients with chronic kidney disease, only one retrospective study to evaluate the improvement of cardiovascular biomarkers and LVEF in hemodialysis patients who have HFrEF. In addition, there is no article predicting the outcomes of Sacubitril/Valsartan, the inclusion criteria of LVEF value are not consistent. Investigators will perform a prospective, cohort study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Sacubitril/Valsartan on Cardiovascular Events Outcome in Maintenance hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis patients with Heart Failure, and use secondary analysis to find out the range of baseline LVEF Value to predict the therapeutic effects.
The primary objective of the study is the development of a mathematical model for predicting potassium kinetics during and after the dialytic session. The secondary objectives of the study are: 1. the definition of a correlation between the kinetics of intra and extra-cellular concentrations of potassium during and after the dialytic session and the onset of arrhythmias; 2. the use of the mathematical model to modify the blood concentration of potassium by acting on the composition of the dialysis bath in order to minimize the risk of onset of arrhythmias during and after dialysis.
Xerostomia is a subjective complaint of dry mouth, whereas hyposalivation is an objective decreased of salivary flow. Hyposalivation was reported in 28.8 % of haemodialysis (HD) patients (Bruzda-Zwiech, 2014).
This study is aim to compare the efficacy of intravenous versus oral iron therapy regarding the hemoglobin levels, iron status and erythropoietin dosage in maintenance hemodialysis patients
Sacubitril/valsartan reduces the risk of cardiovascular mortality among patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, and has been recently indicated as a new treatment option with a strong level of recommendation (class I, level of evidence B) in the main international guidelines. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the most common cause of death in end stage renal disease (ESRD) patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD). Hence, treatments to improve mortality and specifically cardiovascular outcomes in this population are greatly needed. So far, no data available about the efficacy and safety of sacubitril/valsartan in ESRD patients undergoing hemodialysis, although this medication was noted to be effective and comparably well tolerable in those with estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR) 20 to 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 in the United Kingdom Heart and Renal Protection-III trial. The purpose of this open label, randomized controlled study with prospective data collection is to assess the efficacy and safety of sacubitril/valsartan in maintenance hemodialysis patients with heart failure.
This proposal will measure the effects of mannitol administration versus placebo in hypotensive-prone, adult, maintenance hemodialysis patients with respect to changes in patient symptoms and blood pressure stability.
The arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is the preferred vascular access for hemodialysis(HD), and fistula-first is the general recommendation for all HD patients. But in clinical practice in China, quite a few patients start HD before AVF maturation due to various situations. Whether HD initiation with mature AVF will influence the patency and complications is controversial. This study is aim to compare the AVF patency in incident HD patients with mature or immature AVF on HD initiation, and to compare other clinical outcomes, including abandonment without use, infection, and other AVF complications occurrence.
