Testing a new blood filter to improve quality of life in kidney failure
This trial tests whether adding a special filter called pHA130 to your regular dialysis treatments can better remove certain waste products from your blood and improve your quality of life. It's for people who have been on dialysis for at least 3 months and meet a few health requirements.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT07653711Recruiting
Coated aldehyde oxystarch for reducing toxins in kidney failure
This trial tests a new oral medication, coated aldehyde oxystarch, for people on dialysis. It aims to lower certain waste products in the blood that are hard to remove with standard dialysis, which may help reduce long-term complications.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT07613632Recruiting
Lung Blood Flow Changes After Vein Graft Repair
This study measures how blood flow and oxygen distribution in your lungs change after a procedure to unclog a dialysis access graft. Researchers use painless electrode patches on your chest to track these changes and better understand how the procedure affects your breathing.
WuhuAges 18 years+ - NCT05612022Recruiting
Sound recording during hemodialysis fistula decisions
This study records and analyzes sounds from people getting hemodialysis through an access in the arm (an AV fistula or graft). It aims to see whether sound patterns can help assess or guide the best vascular access approach for dialysis.
Bergamo, BGAges 18–90 - NCT07591714Enrolling by invitation
Eye Exercises During Dialysis Treatment
This study tests whether simple eye exercises done during your regular hemodialysis sessions can help improve eye health and comfort. Researchers will teach you easy eye movements to practice while you're hooked up to your dialysis machine.
IsfahanAges 18–80 - NCT07570771Recruiting
Dialysis duration effects on bladder function in transplant candidates
This study examines how long you've been on dialysis and how much urine you still produce might affect your bladder's ability to hold and stretch after a kidney transplant. Understanding this helps doctors predict how well your bladder will work after you receive a new kidney.
Karachi, SindhAges 18–65 - NCT06249932RecruitingPhase 4
Empagliflozin for heart failure and end-stage kidney disease
This trial tests whether empagliflozin, a medication for heart failure, can help people who also have end-stage kidney disease and are on dialysis. It aims to see if the drug improves heart function in this group.
Hsinchu, TaiwanAges 20 years+ - NCT06249945RecruitingPhase 4
Empagliflozin for heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and dialysis
This trial tests whether a medicine called empagliflozin (used for diabetes and heart failure) can help people with both heart failure (with preserved pumping ability) and end-stage kidney disease who are on dialysis. The study looks at how the drug affects heart function and overall well-being.
