Summary

This study looked at 60 adults on long-term dialysis to see if the schedule of dialysis sessions affects blood flow to the legs. Some patients did standard 4-hour sessions three times a week, while others did shorter 2-hour sessions six times a week. The goal was to find out which schedule better prevents dangerous drops in leg blood pressure during treatment.
