Trial summary

Patients treated with peritoneal dialysis (PD) are at increased risk of developing mechanical complications such as dialysate leaks and hernias thought to be related to an increase in intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) secondary to the addition of dialysate to the abdomen. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Development of a Simplified Method to Measure Intra-abdominal Pressure in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

Patients treated with peritoneal dialysis (PD) are at increased risk of developing mechanical complications such as dialysate leaks and hernias thought to be related to an increase in intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) secondary to the addition of dialysate to the abdomen. Resistance training has been shown to increase IAP but it is unclear in the general population and in patients treated with PD if this training increases the risk of developing hernias.

This study is observing the difference in IAP pressure measurements obtained by the Stryker intracompartmental (STIC) pressure monitor versus the standard IAP pressure measurements obtained with the insufflator at the time of PD catheter insertion.

Read the detailed description

Ten patients who are having a peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheter inserted at the Ottawa Hospital, and who provide informed consent, will undergo intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) measurements with the Stryker intracompartmental (STIC) pressure monitor. Values will be compared to the insufflator at inflation pressures 5,10, and 15 mmHg (millimeters of mercury).

To determine if the Stryker pressure monitor is appropriate for measuring IAP in PD patients, the observed pressures will be analyzed with Bland Altman plots. If the mean difference between readings is 5 mmHg and 95% of the points fall within 2 standard deviations of the mean difference, the Stryker pressure monitor will be considered an acceptable method of measuring IAP.

This tool will then be used as part of a future larger trial which will 1) measure IAP with resistance training in patients treated with PD; with and without dialysate, 2) assess PD patient interest in participating in resistance training trials and 3) determine the appropriateness of the proposed resistance training program for this patient population.

The ultimate goal is to use this study to help inform and develop a clinical trial to 1) assess the impact of resistance training on quality of life and functional status, 2) assess the risk of developing leaks/hernias, and 3) determine if there is an association between IAP during resistance training and subsequent hernia development

What is being measured

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

  1. Intra-Abdominal Pressure (IAP)

    The Intra-Abdominal Pressure (IAP) measured with the Stryker monitor connected to the peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheter was compared with the insufflator pressures at of 15, 10, and 5 mm Hg.

    Measured: During laparoscopic surgery, up to 30 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Peritoneal Dialysis, run by Ottawa Hospital Research Institute at 1 site in Canada.

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 3 inclusion and 1 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 18 Nov 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 Canada. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 18 Nov 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Intra-Abdominal Pressure (IAP) (time frame: During laparoscopic surgery, up to 30 minutes). 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 18 Nov 2020.
