Guilu Erxian Jiao for low blood pressure during dialysis
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests a traditional Chinese medicine (Guilu Erxian Jiao) to see if it can help prevent low blood pressure during dialysis sessions. It may be an option for people who have had this problem before and are not on blood pressure pills.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

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 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 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.
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 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 study looks at whether an ultrasound of the carotid artery (the main artery in your neck) can help predict drops in blood pressure during dialysis. It may help doctors find people at risk for low blood pressure during treatment.
