Measuring fluid changes during dialysis
Part of Heart & circulation, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study uses a special device to measure fluid levels in the body during dialysis. It may help doctors better understand and manage fluid balance for people on hemodialysis.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been on hemodialysis for more than 3 months.
- You are stable during your dialysis sessions.
- You do not have any amputated limbs.
- You are not pregnant.
- You do not have a pacemaker or other implanted electronic device.
- You do not have a hip, knee, or shoulder replacement.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests if a non-invasive finger sensor (PVI) can predict when blood pressure drops during dialysis. If successful, it could help prevent dangerous low blood pressure episodes.
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.
This trial tests a method to better manage fluid levels in critically ill patients who are receiving a type of dialysis (CVVH) for kidney failure. It uses a device (bioelectrical impedance) to measure fluid in the body, which may help doctors give the right amount of fluids more safely.
This study looks at how blood pressure changes during hemodialysis and how much fluid is removed, to see what approach works best for controlling blood pressure. It may help dialysis patients whose blood pressure is often high before or after treatment.
This study tests a special bathroom scale that measures your body's fluid levels to help manage hydration during dialysis. It may help your care team adjust your treatment more precisely.
This study tests a new way to manage fluid buildup in patients hospitalized with worsening heart failure. It uses a simple, non-invasive tool (‘bioimpedance’) to help doctors better balance your fluids, which could help you feel better and recover faster.
