Effects of missed dialysis sessions on heart health
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at how skipping dialysis sessions might affect your heart in the short term. It aims to understand if missing treatments increases the risk of heart problems, which could help improve care for people on dialysis.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Similar studies
Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at whether two simple blood tests (D-dimer and CRP) can help predict heart problems in people on dialysis. If you join, they would check these markers in your blood and see if they relate to your heart health.
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 looks at how the electrical activity of the heart (which controls your heartbeat) changes during and after your regular dialysis sessions. The goal is to see if dialysis affects your heart's rhythm, which can help doctors monitor and prevent heart problems in people on dialysis.
This study looks at how well the heart relaxes and fills with blood in people with kidney failure who are on hemodialysis. By checking this, doctors hope to better understand heart health in dialysis patients.
This study looks at how well the heart and blood vessels work together during dialysis sessions. It may help doctors predict future heart problems so they can better care for people on dialysis.
This study tests whether doing light resistance exercises or aerobic exercises during your dialysis sessions can help improve your blood pressure and heart health. It may help reduce the sudden drops in blood pressure that some people experience during dialysis.
