Trial summary

Background: Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is the most common hereditary kidney disease. Peritoneal dialysis (PD) in such patients is restricted because the significantly enlarged kidneys and liver may lead to the increase of intraperitoneal pressure (IPP). Read more about this study

About this study

Background: Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is the most common hereditary kidney disease. Peritoneal dialysis (PD) in such patients is restricted because the significantly enlarged kidneys and liver may lead to the increase of intraperitoneal pressure (IPP). Increased IPP points to higher risk of abdominal wall complications and limited infusion volume that cause insufficient dialysis adequacy. Therefore, monitoring IPP is especially important in patients with polycystic kidney disease. However, the standard measurement of IPP is limited due to its cumbersome procedures, the application value of equation for estimating IPP among general peritoneal dialysis patients is not clear in the PKD population and the variables influence the IPP is yet to be explored..

Objective: The main purpose of our study was to validate the existing IPP equations in the PKD patients. Further, more relevant variables were included to optimize the IPP equation. Monitoring IPP can guide the formulation of peritoneal dialysis prescription for ADPKD patients, reduce the occurrence of abdominal wall complications, and the clinical utility and efficiency of PD was expanded.

Methods: A multi-center cross-sectional study. The IPPs were measured using the Durand method, with whole-body and abdominal anthropometry indices, the volume of abdominal cavity, the total kidney volume and liver volume were collected. New equation for estimate IPP in PKD patients were generated by stepwise linear regression modeling. The eIPP were calculated using two developed equations previously. Then The bias, accuracy and precision of eIPP derived from new equation were compared with actual IPP by Durand method respectively.

What is being measured

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

  1. intraperitoneal pressure

    Actual IPP (aIPP) was measured as previously described by Durand et al.17. The peritoneal cavity was completely emptied before the test. The patient was placed briefly in a supine position on a horizontal plane and the height of the horizontal plane was standardized for all study subjects. A graduated column (cm) was bounded to the abdominal cavity through the PD catheter, with zero level placed on the midaxillary line. Two-liter dialysate solution was infused into the peritoneal cavity. We then read the height between the column of dialysate inside the PD catheter and the midaxillary line in centimetres of water (cmH2O) at non-deep expiration (IPP exp) and non-deep inspiration (IPP insp) respectively, calculating the mean of IPP exp and IPP insp. After outflowing 500 ml of the dialysate solution, we measured the aIPP again utilizing the same procedure. As a result, aIPP was measured two times for each participant. All the measurements were performed by two skillful nurses, which had

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Peritoneal Dialysis and Polycystic Kidney Diseases, run by Peking University First Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 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: enrolling by invitation, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Feb 2025. 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 China. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

intraperitoneal pressure (time frame: 20 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 24 Feb 2025.
