Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 65 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: We evaluated 60 patients' hydration states were measured by bioimpedance spectroscopy methods. Patients were assigned to normo and hypervolemic groups according to Body composition monitor(BCM) results. Also, normalized calf resistivity (nRho) was calculated from resistance at 5 Khz and the levels of NT-proBNP were measured in all study patients. The analyses of arterial stiffness were performed by using the pulse wave velocity (PWV) technique on the patients. Additionally, all patients underwent conventional echocardiography and their left ventricular diastolic functions were evaluated. The patients were grouped using the BCM method because, according to the literature, this method is the only one that can classify subjects in terms of volume conditions.

About this study

Official title: Volume Status in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients With Using Different Determining Methods.

Dry weight (DW) assessment is essential for the efficient treatment of peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients but so far objective methods for DW assessment have not been established for daily clinical practice. Our aim was to evaluate hydration state in PD patients by using a body composition monitor (BCM) and calf bioimpedance (c-BI) and N-terminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels and to compare both methods with arterial stiffness.

Read the detailed description

We evaluated 60 patients using a new BCM device that implies a validated body composition model. This method allows correct quantification of extracellular fluid overload or deficiency (normal limits:-1.1 to +1.1L). Patients were assigned to normo and hypervolemic groups according to BCM results. Also, normalized calf resistivity (nRho) was calculated from resistance at 5 Khz using c-BI and the levels of NT-proBNP were measured in all study patients. The analyses of arterial stiffness were performed by using the pulse wave velocity (PWV) technique on the patients. All patients underwent conventional echocardiography and their left ventricular diastolic functions were evaluated.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

Study groups in NCT01659333
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Peritoneal dialysis, hypervolemiaAll calculations are automatically performed by the software of the BCM device. Absolute over hydration (OH) is the difference between the expected patient's ECW under normal physiological conditions and the actual ECW, whereas the relative over hydration (Rel. OH) is defined as the OH to ECW ratio. Normohydration is defined when OH is between the 10th and the 90th percentile for healthy, age- and gender-matched individuals from the reference population, i.e., between 10th percentile (-1.1 L) to 90th percentile (+1.1 L), while volumes below and above this range define underhydration and overhydration, respectively.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Disorders Associated With Peritoneal Dialysis, run by TC Erciyes University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 2 inclusion and 4 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 7 Aug 2012. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

Terminated of patients recruiting (time frame: One year). 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 NCT01659333, 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 7 Aug 2012.
