Remote monitoring for patients starting home dialysis
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study looks at whether using a remote patient monitoring (RPM) system with your at-home dialysis machine can improve your health. It compares two groups: one that uses a monitoring system and one that doesn't, to see if it helps you manage your treatment better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years of age or older.
- You are just starting peritoneal dialysis (a type of dialysis that uses the lining of your belly).
- You are willing to use an automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) machine at night, possibly a specific brand.
- You have not had peritonitis (an infection in your belly) in the last 6 weeks.
- You have not had a urinary catheter removed or abdominal surgery in the last 60 days.
- You are able to understand and follow the study instructions (no severe memory or mental health issues).

This study tests a mobile app called MiDiálisis designed to help people on peritoneal dialysis (home dialysis) track their treatment. It looks at whether the app is easy to use and helpful for staying on track.
This study tests whether using a continuous glucose monitor (a small sensor that checks blood sugar levels throughout the day) can help improve diabetes control in people who are on peritoneal dialysis (a type of kidney dialysis done at home). It aims to see if this technology leads to better health outcomes.
This study tests a new sensor system that can predict fluid overload (congestion) in people on peritoneal dialysis. It may help you and your care team spot problems early so you can avoid hospital visits.
This study compares the effectiveness and resource use of remote patient monitoring across different dialysis methods for people with end-stage renal disease. It aims to see if remote monitoring can improve care and outcomes.
This trial tests a remote monitoring system for people on automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) at home. It aims to see if this technology improves quality of life and mental health.
This study compares two forms of home peritoneal dialysis—how well they work for kidney health and how they affect daily life. You may be considered if you have end-stage kidney disease and meet specific test and safety requirements.
