Filter by:This study is a multicenter, prospective and randomized controlled study. The experiment includes a 1-week screening period (1 week before dialysis) and a 7-week treatment period (1-4 weeks of dose drip period and 5-7 weeks of evaluation period). During the screening period, all patients were randomly divided into the control group and the treatment group. On the non-dialysis day of the treatment period, the treatment group was given a certain dose of sodium zirconium silicate, and the blood potassium value was measured before and after each dialysis to maintain the blood potassium at 4.0-5.0mmol/L before dialysis. At the same time, 12-lead ECG and 24-hour Holter were completed at the first and last dialysis during the treatment period, and finally the ECG stability and its relationship with blood potassium were evaluated.
The goal of this study is to compare 5 units of intravenous Regular insulin to 10 units of intravenous regular insulin in the management of hyperkalemia. We will measure the efficacy of these 2 doses of insulin in reducing hyperkalemia at 2 hours from administration using the main laboratory serum values.
Insufficient clinical evidence correlates the progression of diabetic kidney disease with electrolyte homeostasis in patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), especially in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) population and what are the most effective interventions to slow chronic renal failure progression. In our research, we test the hypothesis that low serum magnesium and potassium levels are directly associated with the decline of kidney function in diabetic patients who did not have severely impaired renal function at baseline. In addition, we describe the effect of long-term multifactorial adherence interventions on medication adherence, diet adherence and follow-up visits using a telemedicine approach such as mobile applications in reducing the progression of chronic kidney disease and other diabetes-related complications. This study is a single-blind randomized control trial to demonstrate the causal relationship between potassium and magnesium levels and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decline. The intervention group will be evaluated for manifestations of electrolyte imbalance and correction of serum magnesium and/or potassium levels will be initiated based on the last updated laboratory test. Moreover, they will receive education to reinforce diet and exercise changes at each follow up visit by a specialized dietitian with pharmacist-led comprehensive medication therapy management utilizing multifactorial adherence interventions to measure potential drug-drug or drug-food interactions, as well as medication and follow-up adherence through an integrated mobile application and fixed medication possession ratio (FMPR). This research is under progress, and summary of its findings will be reported. This study will suggest if additional national monitoring guidelines may be warranted. In addition, it will reduce diabetic burden, medication cost in UAE and improve patient satisfaction by reducing or delaying the progression of diabetic kidney disease in diabetic patients.
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.
