Summary
This trialstudies if additional sodium removal between hemodialysis sessions can improve outcomes for kidney disease patients.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 who are on hemodialysis up to three times a week for chronic kidney failure but can't reach their prescribed dry weight. They should gain at least 4% of their dry weight between sessions and be able to consent. It's not for those with conditions that rule out peritoneal dialysis or MRI, uncontrolled diabetes, active infections, non-compliance with hemodialysis, or very low sodium levels.
What is being tested?
The study tests if extra peritoneal dialysis using a dextrose solution can better remove excess sodium from tissues in-between regular hemodialysis sessions. Ten patients will have this additional treatment twice weekly for three weeks and undergo leg MRIs to measure tissue sodium before and after the study.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include discomfort or infection at the catheter insertion site, changes in blood pressure during the procedure, shifts in blood sugar levels due to dextrose solution used in peritoneal ultrafiltration, and possible adverse reactions related to MRI.
