Improving mineral balance in dialysis patients
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests a change in dialysis fluid to help patients on hemodialysis better manage their mineral levels, which may reduce bone and heart problems.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

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 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 studies whether using a dialysis fluid with a different bicarbonate level can help people with long-term kidney failure treated with regular hemodialysis. If you qualify, you may be assigned to receive a specific bicarbonate concentration during your dialysis sessions.
This study looks at how the type of fluid used during dialysis might affect calcium buildup in your blood vessels, which can be a problem for people on long-term dialysis. If you're on dialysis and stable, you may be able to join.
This trial tests two types of dialysis filters (medium cut-off and high-flux) to see which one better manages mineral and bone problems common in people on hemodialysis. It may help find a way to improve bone health and mineral balance.
