Summary

This study tests whether adding a gentle cleaning of the belly (peritoneal dialysis) between regular blood-cleansing sessions can help remove extra salt and fluid in 10 adults on hemodialysis. Participants will get a small tube placed in their belly for the extra treatments twice a week for three weeks. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and can improve fluid balance and blood pressure.
