Heart health tests for people with kidney disease
Part of Heart & circulation, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at new heart health tests for people with kidney disease. It may help doctors better understand heart risks and improve care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 45 years or older, or 18 or older if you have diabetes.
- You are starting hemodialysis for kidney failure, or you are on peritoneal dialysis, or you have moderate kidney disease (stage 3-4) with high blood pressure.
- You do not have pre-existing heart disease.
- You do not have active cancer.
- You can understand the study and give informed consent.

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 how well we can predict heart and kidney problems in people who have both coronary heart disease and chronic kidney disease. By analyzing certain markers, researchers hope to create a better risk assessment tool.
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 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 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 how high potassium levels (hyperkalemia) in people with chronic kidney disease may affect the heart. Doctors will use echocardiograms (heart ultrasounds) to check for changes.
