Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether or not nocturnal hemodialysis is equivalent to short daily hemodialysis on a per treatment basis, using the NxStage System One in the home setting.


Clinical Trial Description

End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) continues to be a devastating clinical condition. The number of patients in 2004 affected by ESRD in the United States rose to 472,000. More than 104,000 new patients began therapy for ESRD in 2004 (1.5% greater than in 2003), while the prevalent dialysis population reached nearly 336,000 (3.4% higher). Total Medicare costs for ESRD in 2004 rose to $20.1 billion while non-Medicare costs rose to $12.4 Billion(1).

Treatment options for ESRD patients are currently limited to either transplantation or dialysis. As daily hemodialysis (DHD) continues to gain widespread acceptance in the dialysis community, there is also renewed interest in nocturnal hemodialysis (NHD) therapy.

NHD has the potential to provide certain advantages over both DHD and conventional thrice-weekly in-center HD. NHD typically consists of 6 - 10 hour treatments while the patient sleeps, providing more gentle fluid removal, more time for equilibration, improved hemodynamic stability and superior clearance of larger solutes(2).

The proposed study plans to explore whether or not NHD is equivalent to DHD on a per treatment basis, using the NxStage System One in the home setting.
