About this study

To evaluate the effect of hemodialysis on various ophthalmologic parameters in patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESRD).

Read the detailed description

Subjects: patients with ESRD undergoing hemodialysis at the Dialysis Center of Hanyang Guri Hospital

Ocular parameters: visual acuity, intraocular pressure, axial length, OCT Other systemic parameters: body weight, ultrafiltration volume, and systolic/diastolic blood pressure

All measurements were performed near the dialysis center. Measurements were performed on Monday (for patients who underwent dialysis sessions on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday) or Tuesday (for patients who underwent dialysis sessions on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.

All parameters were measured before and after the hemodialysis.

Being tested

patients with chronic kidney diseasespatients with end stage retinal disease undergoing hemodialysis underwent various ophthalmologic exams before and after hemodialysis.
Receives: Other: ophthalmologic exams

What is being measured

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

  1. changes of retinal and choroidal thickness after hemodialysis

    retinal \& choroidal thickness on OCT

    Measured: immediately (within 10 minutes) before and after hemodialysis

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. changes of foveal vascular density using optical coherence tomography-angiography (OCTA) after hemodialysis

    vessel density on OCTA

    Measured: immediately (within 10 minutes) before and after hemodialysis

  2. the effect of hemodialysis (HD) on anterior chamber angle by anterior segment optical coherence

    intraocular pressure, retinal thickness, anterior chamber angle

    Measured: immediately (within 10 minutes) before and after hemodialysis

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chronic Kidney Diseases and Hemolysis, run by Hanyang University.

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 15 Feb 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

changes of retinal and choroidal thickness after hemodialysis (time frame: immediately (within 10 minutes) before and after hemodialysis). 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 15 Feb 2018.
