Trial summary

Patients with renal impairment are usually advised to increase their fluid intake. There is currently, however, no evidence supporting this recommendation. In contrast,high fluid intake could be dangerous if urine excretion is reduced. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Effect of Increased Fluid Intake on Chronic Renal Failure

Patients with renal impairment are usually advised to increase their fluid intake. There is currently, however, no evidence supporting this recommendation. In contrast,high fluid intake could be dangerous if urine excretion is reduced. In this study the researchers investigate whether increasing fluid intake from 2 to 4 litres per day has any influence on long-term renal outcome.

Being tested

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing high fluid intake and normal fluid intake in people with Chronic Renal Failure and Kidney Transplantation, run by Medical University of Vienna at 1 site in Austria.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
