About this study

The objective of the EQUODIA study is to evaluate the hemodynamic stability of hemodialysis with low dialysate flow in patients requiring emergency hemodialysis in the context of acute kidney injury or unscheduled end-stage renal disease, not in intensive care, compared to conventional triweekly high-flow hemodialysis.

Short daily hemodialysis has excellent hemodynamic tolerance, which has already been confirmed by clinical experience. This modality, commonly used in the patient's home through new machines allowing a low dialysate flow purification technique, can prove to be an innovative, effective and safe alternative for patients admitted for hemodialysis in an unscheduled situation (acute kidney injury, unscheduled end-stage renal disease not followed).

Up to now, no studies have evaluated the use of short daily hemodialysis with low dialysate flow in patients with acute kidney injury or unscheduled end-stage renal disease, requiring the initiation of emergency extra-renal purification.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of hypotension episodes

    Decrease of ≥ 20 mmHg systolic blood pressure in regard to pre-dialysis value, associated with symptoms such as abdominal pain, yawn, nausea, vomiting, cramps, anxiety, dizziness, malaise and/or loss of consciousness

    Measured: During the first two weeks of dialysis

  2. Study start12 May 2021
  3. Primary completion7 Apr 2022

Why it stopped: Logistical difficulties in the department due to a lack of paramedical staff and dialysis space.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Hemodialysis with low dialysate flow and Conventional triweekly high-flow hemodialysis in people with Acute Kidney Injury and Kidney Failure, Chronic, run by Centre Hospitalier Departemental Vendee at 1 site in France.

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 5 inclusion and 7 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 25 Jan 2024. 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 France. 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: Logistical difficulties in the department due to a lack of paramedical staff and dialysis space.). 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?

Number of hypotension episodes (time frame: During the first two weeks of dialysis). 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 25 Jan 2024.
