Compare two ways to clean blood during dialysis
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study compares two methods for removing waste products from the blood in people who need dialysis. It aims to see whether one method works better or is safer during extra-renal (outside the body) blood purification.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be someone who currently needs renal replacement therapy (dialysis or similar blood-cleaning treatment)
- Be age 18 or older
- Cannot be pregnant
- Have platelet levels high enough (platelets not below 30 G/L)
- Be able to give free and informed consent, and be able to participate legally (not under full guardianship or deprived of freedom)

This trial compares two types of dialysis (hemodialysis and hemodiafiltration) to see which is better at removing waste from the blood in ICU patients with sudden kidney failure. It may help doctors choose the best treatment for you.
This study tests how safe a specific blood thinner called “citrate” is when used during continuous kidney dialysis (CRRT) for people with AKI or kidney failure. If you qualify, your care team will compare citrate safety against standard approaches to see if it’s tolerable and safe.
This study compares two ways of giving kidney dialysis to patients who are on a heart-lung bypass machine (ECMO). It aims to find which method works better for filtering the blood.
This study looks at the health records of people who needed emergency dialysis or a similar blood-filtering treatment in the emergency department. It aims to understand their outcomes, which may help improve care for people with sudden kidney failure.
This study compares two types of dialysis fluid (citrate-based vs acetate-based) to see which better helps protect blood pressure during intermittent dialysis. It may help people in intensive care who are at risk of dialysis-related low blood pressure.
This study compares two dialysis membranes while using a reduced “weaning” plan for the blood thinner heparin during hemodialysis. It aims to see which membrane works better and safely during routine chronic dialysis.
