This study looks at how blood pressure changes during hemodialysis and how much fluid is removed, to see what approach works best for controlling blood pressure. It may help dialysis patients whose blood pressure is often high before or after treatment.
This study is looking at why some people develop high blood pressure during their dialysis sessions. Your participation could help doctors better manage this condition in the future.
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 whether a common blood pressure medication (thiazide diuretics) helps control high blood pressure in people on peritoneal dialysis. The goal is to see if it can lower blood pressure and improve health.
This study tests whether lifestyle changes—like diet and exercise—can help lower blood pressure in Black adults with moderate kidney disease. It's designed specifically for people at higher risk of kidney problems, and the goal is to see if these changes can slow kidney disease progression and reduce heart disease risk.
This study investigates why some dialysis patients develop high blood pressure in their lung blood vessels and how it affects their health. Researchers will assess heart function and follow patients over time to better understand this condition.
