Changing salt in dialysis fluid to improve blood pressure and blood vessel health
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests whether changing the amount of salt in your dialysis fluid can help lower blood pressure and improve blood vessel health. If you are on dialysis, this could be a way to feel better and reduce heart risks.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests whether changing the salt (sodium) level in dialysis fluid can reduce problems in blood vessels. It is done in adult dialysis centers to compare outcomes between two sodium levels.
This trial tests if adjusting the salt (sodium) in your dialysis fluid can improve your health. It is for people on dialysis who have trouble with too much fluid gain or high blood pressure between sessions.
This study looks at how different types of dialysis affect salt stored in your tissues and your small blood vessels. It may help doctors understand how to improve dialysis treatments.
This trial compares two different salt (sodium) levels in the dialysis fluid to see which one helps people recover better after hemodialysis. If you meet the study’s dialysis schedule and health requirements, your team may assign you to one of the sodium levels during treatments.
This study looks at how salt builds up in the skin of people with chronic kidney disease. It involves different groups testing either sodium intake, sodium excretion, or water intake to see how these affect blood pressure and kidney function.
This study tests different blood pressure goals for people getting dialysis at a center. It aims to find which blood pressure target is safer and better for kidney dialysis patients.
