Testing different salt levels in dialysis fluid to prevent blood vessel events
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests whether changing the salt (sodium) level in dialysis fluid can reduce problems in blood vessels. It is done in adult dialysis centers to compare outcomes between two sodium levels.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are an adult (18 or older) receiving regular maintenance hemodialysis
- Your dialysis unit mainly treats in-center patients (not mainly home dialysis support)
- Your unit uses a standard (default) dialysis fluid salt level for most sessions
- The unit agrees to assign patients to one of the two sodium levels being tested
- The study team at your unit can reliably collect the required study data

This study tests whether using a special salt substitute (lower in sodium, higher in potassium) at home can help people on hemodialysis maintain healthier potassium levels. It may offer a simple way to improve diet and heart health for those with end-stage kidney disease.
This study tests whether adjusting the amount of potassium in the dialysis fluid can reduce heart problems and other complications for people on dialysis. If you join, the potassium level in your dialysis solution may be changed, and researchers will track your health to see if it helps.
This study tests whether changing the amount of salt in your dialysis fluid can help lower blood pressure and improve blood vessel health. If you are on dialysis, this could be a way to feel better and reduce heart risks.
This trial tests if adjusting the salt (sodium) in your dialysis fluid can improve your health. It is for people on dialysis who have trouble with too much fluid gain or high blood pressure between sessions.
This trial compares two different salt (sodium) levels in the dialysis fluid to see which one helps people recover better after hemodialysis. If you meet the study’s dialysis schedule and health requirements, your team may assign you to one of the sodium levels during treatments.
This study looks at how different types of dialysis affect salt stored in your tissues and your small blood vessels. It may help doctors understand how to improve dialysis treatments.
