Brain wave changes in children with kidney disease
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at brain wave patterns in children who have long-term kidney problems but no obvious seizures. It may help doctors understand how kidney disease affects the brain.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be a child with chronic kidney disease or nephrotic syndrome.
- You cannot be a newborn baby (less than 1 month old).
- You must not have a genetic disease or a neurological disorder (a problem with your brain or nerves).

This study looks at how well the kidneys work in children who have epilepsy. It may help doctors understand how epilepsy or its treatment affects kidney health.
This trial looks at brain activity (using a painless EEG, which measures brain waves) in people who are starting hemodialysis for the first time. It aims to understand what happens to brain activity when dialysis begins, and whether specific patterns are seen.
This study is looking at how chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects the eyes, brain, and kidneys. It uses MRI scans to examine these organs, and aims to find connections that could help improve care for people with CKD.
This study uses a special brain scan (magnetoencephalography, or MEG) to look at brain activity in children with conditions like seizures, brain tumors, autism, and others. It may help doctors learn more about how these conditions affect the brain.
This study uses a quick brain wave test (EEG) to help doctors spot ongoing seizure activity in children who are thought to have status epilepticus, a type of long-lasting seizure. The results may help guide treatment faster.
This trial tests whether a computer system can help doctors diagnose epilepsy more accurately by analyzing EEG (brain wave) recordings in children. It may be an option if your child has suspected seizures.
