Better dialysis for kids
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study looks at improving how well dialysis removes waste from the blood and uses water in children. It may help make treatments more effective and efficient.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years old or younger.
- You need to have been on stable hemodialysis for at least three months.
- Your vascular access (like a fistula or central line) must be working well.
- You should not have an active infection during the study week.

This study compares two methods for removing waste products from the blood in people who need dialysis. It aims to see whether one method works better or is safer during extra-renal (outside the body) blood purification.
This study tests a new way to do hemodialysis that might remove certain waste products (called protein-bound uremic toxins) more effectively than standard dialysis. It could help people on long-term dialysis feel better and have fewer complications.
This trial compares two types of dialysis—expanded hemodialysis and high-volume online hemodiafiltration—to see which removes waste products from the blood better. If you are on standard expanded hemodialysis, joining could help find the best way to clean your blood.
This study tests whether starting dialysis at twice a week, instead of the usual three times, is safe and effective for people who still have some kidney function. If the kidneys still make urine and clear waste, being on dialysis less often may maintain that function longer.
This study measures how well a dialysis method called haemodiafiltration removes waste products from the blood, tracks how patients feel, and monitors sodium balance. It aims to improve treatment for people with kidney failure on dialysis.
This study compares different types of dialysis to see which removes waste products (uremic toxins) best from the blood. If you have been on dialysis for at least 6 months and use the same filter for a year, this trial may help find a better way to clean your blood.
