  • ability to provide informed consent
  • Primary nephrologist deems patient is at target dry weight
  • KDOQI defined hypertension (predialysis SBP >140 or postdialysis SBP>130) AND
  • pre to post hemodialysis SBP increase (>10 mmHg) during 4/6 last HD session

Who cannot join

  • Patient currently on antibiotics or on IV antibiotics within the last month
  • BP unable to be measured by routine mechanisms in the upper extremity
  • Life expectancy < 6 months

About this study

The purpose of this study is to determine the role of dialysate exposure and fluid removal during hemodialysis in the pathophysiology of intradialytic hypertension.

Read the detailed description

Specific Aim #1 To determine in a crossover study of 15 maintenance hemodialysis patients with intradialytic hypertension whether standard dialysis with ultrafiltration (dialysate Na of 140), dialysis without ultrafiltration (dialysate Na of 140), or ultrafiltration alone (no dialysate) is associated with the an increase in systolic blood pressure during hemodialysis

Specific Aim #2 To determine in a crossover study of 15 maintenance hemodialysis with intradialytic hypertension whether standard dialysis with ultrafiltration, dialysis without ultrafiltration, or ultrafiltration alone is associated with change in either endothelin-1 or nitric oxide during hemodialysis

SUBSTUDY AIMS

Specific Aim #1 To determine in a randomized 3-week, 2 period crossover study of 15 maintenance hemodialysis patients with intradialytic hypertension whether high vs low dialysate-to-serum Na gradients impairs release of NO, increases ET-1 or causes an acute intradialytic increase in systolic BP,.

Specific Aim #2 TO determine in a randomized 16-week, 2-period crossover study of 30 hemodialysis patients with intradialytic hypertension the effects of 8 weeks of high dialysate-to-plasma Na gradients to 8-weeks of low Na gradients on EC function (FMD and ADMA) and 44 hour ambulatory BP.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Intradialytic hypertensionPatients with systolic blood pressure increases > 10 mmHg during 4/6 hemodialysis sessions

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Systolic blood pressure

    Differences in blood pressure during hemodialysis between treatments

    Measured: crossover studies followup 3-16 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Endothelial cell function

    Differences in nitric oxide and endothelin-1 across treatments Differences in FMD and ADMA between treatments

    Measured: crossover studies with followup of 3-16 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hemodialysis and End-stage Renal Disease, run by University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at 1 site in United States.

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 6 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Systolic blood pressure (time frame: crossover studies followup 3-16 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01371890, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Dec 2020.
