Summary
This study compared two types of home dialysis for people with end-stage kidney disease: nighttime automated dialysis (APD) and daytime manual dialysis (CAPD). 137 non-diabetic adults tried each method for 12 weeks. The goal was to see if nighttime dialysis was as good as daytime dialysis at removing waste from the blood. The study also looked at sleep quality, daily life, and blood pressure.
