About this study

Official title: Comparison of Body Hydration State in Hemodialysis Patients With the Hydra 4200 and ZOE (100 and 5 kHZ) Bioimpedance Devices

Estimation of hydration state in dialysis patients is a major challenge in clinical practice. Although many methods have been studied, none have been established yet for clinical routine practice.

The investigators have developed a method, using segmental and calf bioimpedance spectroscopy (cBIS) techniques to measure body hydration. The device we used based on the FDA-approved Hydra 4200 (Xitron Technologies, San Diego, CA). The Hydra 4200 was initially developed to measure whole body and segmental body fluid volumes but Hydra is approved only for measuring healthy subjects. The cBIS monitors hydration state by continuously measuring change in resistance and resistivity in the calf during hemodialysis (HD) or it can be used for simple measurement before, during and after dialysis. Preliminary results in clinical studies have shown that optimal hydration state of HD patients may be determined by the calf method. This study aims to compare the Hydra 4200 to two other devices: the FDA approved ZOE (100 kHz) Fluid Status Monitor (Noninvasive Medical Technologies, Inc, Las Vegas) and a modified version ZOE 5 kHz. The modified ZOE monitor (ZOE (5 kHz)) delivers frequency of 5 kHz and 0.8 mA current instead of 100 kHz and 2 mA.

The subjects of this study include a group of hemodialysis patients and a group of healthy controls. The healthy controls are used to identify a normal range within the healthy population for each method. Each hemodialysis patient will be studied twice in different hydration state. The study will not change the procedure of the patient's dialysis treatment. Since all devices are based on noninvasive bioimpedance technique, this study has minimal risk.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hemodialysis and Chronic Kidney Disease, run by Renal Research Institute 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 1 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Feb 2016. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Change of Institutional Affiliation \& Funding). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Calf bioimpedance measurement (time frame: 2 dialysis treatments within 1 week). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 24 Feb 2016.
