Amino acid supplements during dialysis
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests whether adding amino acid supplements during dialysis helps people with kidney failure. It may be an option if your doctor decides you need these supplements.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are on dialysis (a treatment that filters your blood when your kidneys don't work well).
- Your doctor plans to give you amino acid supplements (special nutrients) during your dialysis.
- You do not have liver failure (your liver is not working).
- You do not have a muscle disease (like muscular dystrophy).
- You do not have a neurodegenerative disease (like Parkinson's or ALS).

This trial tests whether giving a special amino acid infusion (protein building blocks) through an IV can help protect kidney function in patients on ECMO, a machine that supports the heart and lungs. It is a pilot study to see if this treatment is safe and feasible in the intensive care unit.
This trial is testing whether giving amino acids after heart surgery can help prevent kidney injury in children at high risk. If it works, it could offer a simple way to protect kidney function during recovery.
This study tests whether giving amino acids (protein building blocks) during heart surgery can help protect your kidneys from damage. If you are having heart surgery and are at high risk, this treatment might reduce the chance of kidney problems afterward.
This study tests whether giving amino acids (the building blocks of protein) through an IV during heart surgery can help protect your kidneys. It is for people having planned heart surgery and staying in the ICU afterward.
This trial tests whether folic acid, a common vitamin, can help patients with acute kidney injury (a sudden drop in kidney function) recover while they are in the hospital. It aims to see if folic acid is safe and feasible to use for this condition.
This study tests whether giving amino acids directly into the blood during dialysis can reduce stiffness in blood vessels, which is common in kidney failure and can lead to heart problems. If you are on stable dialysis, this treatment might help improve your vascular health.
