Filter by:The goal of this study is to find out the effect of interval versus continous intradialytic training on muscle quality index and functional capacity in Hemodialysis patients. The main question it aims to answer is: Does interval versus continous intradialytic training have an effect on muscle quality index and functional capacity in hemodialysis patients? Patients will be assigned randomly by computerized block randomization into two groups:Group (A): 30 patients will participate in 8 weeks of aerobic exercise in the form of high intensity interval training (HIIT) intradialytic pedaling exercise plus hemodialysis (3 sessions per week).Group (B): 30 patients will participate in 8 weeks of aerobic exercise in the form of moderate intensity continous training (MICT) intradialytic pedaling exercise plus hemodialysis (3 sessions per week) . primary and secondary variables will be measured before starting treatment and after completion (after 2 months )
The primary goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the promoting effect of pentoxifylline on anemia correction in hemodialysis patients, and involvement of the hypoxia-inducible factor-2 alpha. While, the secondary aim is to evaluate the effect of pentoxifylline on inflammation, hepcidin and other markers of iron homeostasis in these patients. Participants in this trial will be selected to be age and sex ratio matched and will be randomly assigned into two groups. Patients in group I will receive their regular doses of erythropoietin stimulating agents and other routine treatments plus 400 mg pentoxifylline tablets twice daily with meals for 6 months. While, patients in group II will receive their regular doses of erythropoietin stimulating agents and other routine treatments.
From a scientific point of view and for publication purposes, it therefore seems important to study the metabolism of iron and in particular to define its conditions of absorption, metabolism, elimination and storage in the body at course of advanced renal failure. The study will follow the evolution of hormones regulating iron metabolism and put into perspective their links with phosphocalcic and hepatic metabolisms as well as inflammation in hemodialysis patients. The main objective of this program is to study the evolution of hepcidin and erythroferrone levels in hemodialysis patients. These two biomarkers regulating iron metabolism are not performed routinely in dialysis centers and are not listed in the nomenclature.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of cholestyramine in the management of hyperphosphatemia in hemodialysis patients. Colestilan is a non-metallic phosphate binder that acts as an anion-exchange resin. Colestilan itself is not absorbed after oral administration, and it is able to bind dietary phosphate within the gastrointestinal tract and thus prevent absorption of the mineral. Initial, Phase II, studies showed that it reduces serum phosphorus levels in dialysis patients with hyperphosphatemia without affecting serum calcium levels. There are no studies conducted about the feasibility and efficacy of cholestyramine as an oral phosphate binder in hemodialysis patients. Relying on the efficacy and safety of bile acid sequestrants such as colestilan and colestipol in the management of hyperphosphatemia and hypercholesterolemia in hemodialysis patients, cholestyramine is selected to be studied in hemodialysis patients. A total of 80 patients will be recruited and divided into 2 groups: - Group 1: (cholestyramine 12 gram), 40 patients will take a dose of cholestyramine 4-gram sachet in 150-200 ml water or juice three times daily within meals as an add on therapy with standard therapy calcium-based phosphate binder (Calcimate). Group 2: Control group, 40 patients will take only the standard therapy calcium-based phosphate binder (Calcimate). Time of the trial will be two months (8 weeks trial period) Baseline characteristics: The following data will be collected from all patients at baseline 1. Age, sex, weight, duration of ESRD and hemodialysis comorbidities. 2. Dialysis duration, serum phosphate level, serum calcium level, iPTH, BUN, Cr (mg/d L), Albumin (mg/d L), Hb (g m%), renal function test, liver function test, blood glucose level, TG, total cholesterol level, LDL-C, HDL.C. After the end of trial, we will examine if cholestyramine has a significant efficacy on reducing serum phosphate level in adult hemodialysis patients.
A Prospective, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial will be conducted at the pediatric dialysis unit, Children's Hospital, Ain Shams University in order to investigate the benefits of melatonin supplementation on oxidative stress, inflammation and to assess sleep quality by using PSQI questionnaire in pediatric hemodialysis patients.
Abstract Objective: The research was conducted to determine the effect of the nursing intervention, which was given to patients according to the Roy Adaptation Model, on patients' stress, psychosocial adjustment, and self-care power. Methods: The population of the study, which was conducted as a randomized controlled experimental study, consisted of 80 patients receiving outpatient dialysis treatment in the hemodialysis unit of a university hospital. The patients from the population were included in the sample of the study in a randomized manner. The data were collected using the Descriptive Characteristics Form, the Hemodialysis Stressor Scale, the Self-Care Scale, and the Psychosocial Adjustment to Illness Scale. Results: When the pre-tests between the groups were compared, hygienic self-care power, healthcare orientation, vocational environment, domestic environment, sexual relationships, extended family relations, social environment and total psychosocial adjustment levels changed significantly (p<0.05). When the post-tests were compared between the groups, no significant difference was found only in the mean of the mental state sub-dimension (p>0.05). Conclusion: Interventions made according to the Roy Adaptation Model reduced the stress level of the patients, and increased their self-care power and psychosocial adjustment.

Purpose: To examine the effects of core stabilization and aerobic exercises on dialysis adequacy, functionality level, and quality of life in hemodialysis (HD) patients. The secondary aim of the study is to compare the effectiveness of intradialytic core stabilization and aerobic exercises in HD patients. Materials and Methods: Patients who received hemodialysis treatment for 4 hours, 3 days a week were planned to be included in this randomized controlled study. Patients participating in the study will be randomly divided into 2 groups. Grup 1 was planned to be given core stabilization exercises during hemodialysis three times a week for eight weeks; Group 2 was planned to be given aerobic exercise during hemodialysis three times a week for eight weeks. It aimed to evaluate the patients in the weeks before the start of the treatment and the week after the end of the treatment. Personal information form for evaluation, dialysis adequacy, quality of life questionnaire-kidney disease quality of life-36, piper fatigue scale, hospital anxiety and depression scale (hads), Pittsburgh sleep scale, five times sit and stand test, 10 m walking test , tinetti balance and walking test, and 2-minute step test were planned to be used.
Stress management in dialysis patients plays a key role in reducing these negativities and in maintaining both physical and mental well-being. In dialysis patients, on the other hand, the effectiveness of stress ball use on comfort and stress was evaluated, and no study was found that evaluated its effect on anxiety.
The research sample consisted of 74 individuals, including the intervention group (n=37) and the control group (n=37), who received hemodialysis treatment at Sivas Cumhuriyet University Application and Research Hospital Hemodialysis Unit, Sivas Numune Hospital Hemodialysis Unit and Private ONR Dialysis Center. The data of the study were collected using the Patient Description Form, the Patient Clinical Parameters Form (Some Treatment Data and Laboratory Results, Measurement of Pain Intensity), Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), McGill Melzack Pain Questionnaire, Piper Fatigue Scale, and 5-D Itch Scale. A total of 10 sessions of reiki were applied to the patients in the intervention group twice a week for 5 weeks, lasting 40-45 minutes during dialysis. No treatment was applied to the control group. The scales were administered to the individuals in the intervention and control groups three times in total.
The investigator aim to evaluate the effect of training program on treatment adherence, quality of life, cardiovascular risk factors, depression, and healthcare utilization. The investigator conducted a quasi experimental study. The investigator also examine the effect of interaction between health literacy and training program on depression, treatment adherence, cardiovascular risk factors, quality of life, and healthcare utilization. The ultimate goal is to improve the dietary intake and dialysis outcomes for all hemodialysis patients in Taiwan. The investigator therefore will the SaaS dietary educational platform for this purpose.
