Study population: Patients on maintenance hemodialysis, for at least 12 hours per weeks were included into the study. But, patients with symptomatic CVD, AV fistula on both arms, acute deteriorating states and any recent major trauma or patients who refused measurements were excluded. No change in their current medication was administered. All patients were on maintenance HD for at least 12 months and were assumed as good volume controlled.

About this study

Official title: Hemodialysis-Induced Blood Pressure Change As A Prognostic Factor In End-Stage Renal Disease

Cardiovascular events are still the leading cause of mortality and morbidity in patients with ESRD including hemodialysis patients . Although the conventional risk factors of CVD are relatively recognized in general population, an inverse epidemiologic relationship has been reported for many CV risk factors in CKD patients, including hypertension, BMI and lipid profile .Therefore, a comprehensive investigation is necessary to be able to do effective risk management strategies in this population and some surrogate markers are required to be determined for illustrating the net effect of the risk factors.

While several mechanisms have been attributed to hypertension in hemodialysis (HD) patients, the exact pathogenesis, impact, monitoring and control of hypertension in HD patients are still challenging subjects in clinical nephrology. Both low and high BP associate with higher mortality in HD. But a reliable marker for defining an optimal BP in HD is still an important question.

It seems that arterial stiffness play an axial role in the cardiovascular and renal adverse outcomes in CKD and HD, as it is in several other populations , Arterial stiffness has been demonstrated as an independent predictor of mortality in hemodialysis patients . However, hemodialysis patients experience a fluctuating hemodynamic state and there are several limitations for consecutive measurement of arterial stiffness indices such as pulse wave velocity (PWV). Furthermore, the expensive measurement devices and expert operators might not be available in every dialysis center.

Read the detailed description

From 60 patients who were on a HD program in a HD center in a referral hospital, fifty one individuals were included into the study. Patients on maintenance hemodialysis, for at least 12 hours per weeks were included into the study. But, patients with symptomatic CVD, AV fistula on both arms, acute deteriorating states and any recent major trauma or patients who refused measurements were excluded. No change in their current medication was administered. All patients were on maintenance HD for at least 12 months and were assumed as good volume controlled. Dialysis protocol with a mean sp KT/V = 1.4/ session, using Bicarbonate dialysate, dialysate flow rate = 500cc /min was applied by Fresenius B 4008machine. BP was measured using a validated automated device (Omron-HBP1300). Pulse wave analysis was performed using the SphygmoCor (Sydney, Atcor Medical®,2005) to assess Augmentation Index (AIx) as a surrogate for arterial stiffness, as well as several hemodynamic measures at the recruitment and repeated in alive individuals after 5 years of follow-up. Similarly Echocardiography was employed at the beginnings and repeated at the end of the study by EKO 7 Cardiovascular Ultrasound System (Samsung Medison©). A single observerwas responsible for each series of measurements, double checked.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hemodialysis, run by Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences at 1 site in Iran.

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 3 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 11 Feb 2022. 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 Iran. 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?

mortality (time frame: during the six month post starting 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 11 Feb 2022.
