Cooling or salt adjustment to prevent low blood pressure during dialysis
Part of Heart & circulation, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This trial tests two methods to reduce drops in blood pressure during dialysis: cooling the dialysis fluid or changing the sodium levels. It may help people who often have low blood pressure during treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Between 18 and 70 years old
- On dialysis for at least 6 months
- Have had episodes of low blood pressure during dialysis
- Not severely anemic (hemoglobin above 7 g/dL)
- Taking 3 or fewer blood pressure medicines on non dialysis days

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 compares two types of dialysis fluid (citrate-based vs acetate-based) to see which better helps protect blood pressure during intermittent dialysis. It may help people in intensive care who are at risk of dialysis-related low blood pressure.
This trial tests if a special tool can predict and prevent dangerous drops in blood pressure during dialysis in ICU patients with kidney problems. It might help make dialysis safer and more comfortable.
This trial tests if Chinese herbal medicine can help reduce episodes of low blood pressure during dialysis. It may help people who frequently experience drops in blood pressure during treatment.
This Phase 3 trial tests a medicine that blocks a body signal (bradykinin) to help prevent dangerous drops in blood pressure during hemodialysis. If you often get “intradialytic hypotension,” this study may help you dialyze more safely.
This trial tests if a non-invasive finger sensor (PVI) can predict when blood pressure drops during dialysis. If successful, it could help prevent dangerous low blood pressure episodes.
