Cramps in chronic kidney disease patients
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Kidney & urinary, Pain, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at how common and how severe muscle cramps are in people with chronic kidney disease (CKD), including those on dialysis. It aims to better understand cramps so that future treatments can be improved.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at how common high potassium levels are in people with chronic kidney disease who are not on dialysis. It may help find who is at risk and how to prevent it.
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.
This study looks at people with diabetes and advanced kidney disease (stages 4 or 5) who are on hemodialysis. It aims to find what factors affect how long they live, which can help doctors plan better care.
This study looks at how often people with chronic kidney disease have irregular heartbeats. It compares people on dialysis with those not on dialysis to understand the risk and improve care.
This study is collecting information from people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) to understand how the disease progresses over time. It does not test any new treatments, so you keep your usual care.
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.
