Study of heart risk in people starting dialysis
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at heart (cardiovascular) risk factors in people who are just starting dialysis for chronic kidney failure. It may help doctors better understand what heart-related issues to watch for early during dialysis.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must sign a consent form to join the study
- You must have long-term kidney failure that is starting dialysis now
- You must be starting dialysis therapy (not just preparing for it)
- You cannot be pregnant during the study

This study looks for new markers in blood or urine that may help explain heart (cardiovascular) risk in people with chronic kidney disease. It may help doctors better predict risk, especially in those not yet on dialysis.
This study is looking at the link between kidney disease and heart disease. It aims to understand how heart problems affect people with chronic kidney disease. The trial does not test a new drug, but rather follows patients to learn more about their health.
This study tests a new approach to protect the heart and kidneys in people with both chronic kidney disease and heart or blood vessel problems. By optimising treatment, researchers hope to reduce the risk of further kidney or heart damage.
This study looks at whether a simple blood test can predict if calcium will build up in the heart's arteries in people with advanced kidney disease. The goal is to help doctors better monitor heart health in these patients.
This study looks at whether two simple blood tests (D-dimer and CRP) can help predict heart problems in people on dialysis. If you join, they would check these markers in your blood and see if they relate to your heart health.
This study looks at new heart health tests for people with kidney disease. It may help doctors better understand heart risks and improve care.
