HEMODIALYSIS

This study tests a new device called the InnAVasc Arteriovenous Graft for people with end-stage kidney disease who need hemodialysis. The graft creates a connection between an artery and a vein to allow easy access for dialysis. The main goals are to see if the graft stays open a…

This study tests special filters (sorption technologies) added to standard dialysis to reduce inflammation in people with advanced chronic kidney disease. About 60 adults on regular dialysis who have high inflammation levels will be enrolled. The main goal is to see if these filt…

This study tests whether a manuka honey mouth rinse can improve gum health in people with severe kidney disease who are on dialysis. Gum disease is very common in these patients and can lead to tooth loss. The trial will compare standard gum treatment plus the honey rinse versus …

This study tests whether a drug called sacubitril/valsartan can help people who just started hemodialysis. The goal is to see if it reduces fluid buildup in the heart and helps preserve any remaining kidney function. About 100 adults will receive either the drug or a placebo for …

This study tests whether royal jelly, a substance made by bees, can lower inflammation and slow cell aging in people with chronic kidney disease who are on hemodialysis. Researchers will measure changes in blood markers related to inflammation and aging. The study involves 30 adu…

This study tests a medication called AV-001 to see if it can protect the brain in people who undergo regular dialysis. Many dialysis patients experience memory problems or mental fogginess. The drug aims to strengthen brain blood vessels and reduce inflammation. The trial will in…

This study looks at whether giving thyroid hormone (levothyroxine) to people on dialysis who have slightly high TSH levels can improve their quality of life, physical strength, and heart health. About 336 adults on hemodialysis will receive either the hormone or a placebo for a y…

This study compares two common dialysis methods—high-flux hemodialysis and hemodiafiltration—to see which one causes less fatigue and helps people aged 85 and older recover their energy faster after treatment. Each participant will try both methods for three months, acting as the…

This study looks at whether a special breathing exercise program can make the breathing muscles stronger and improve quality of life for people on hemodialysis. Fifty patients aged 50 to 60 who have been on dialysis for 1 to 3 years will take part. The training aims to help them …

This study looks at whether a 6-week aerobic exercise program can lower uric acid levels and improve quality of life in people on hemodialysis. 32 patients aged 40-60 will either exercise or receive standard care. The goal is to see if exercise can reduce heart and joint risks co…

This study tests whether progressive muscle relaxation exercises can ease depression and fatigue in people receiving hemodialysis. Sixty patients will practice these simple, guided exercises to see if they improve mood and energy. The goal is to offer a safe, drug-free way to sup…

This study tests whether one-on-one support from a specially trained nurse and an exercise teacher can help people on hemodialysis become more physically active at home. The study will include 70 adults who have been on dialysis for less than a year. Researchers will measure acti…

This pilot study looks at how the magnesium level in dialysis fluid affects inflammation and blood cell activation in people with kidney failure. Researchers will collect blood samples and rinse the dialysis machine to count immune cells and platelets. The goal is to find better …

This study tests a new device called PatenSee that uses light and sound to check the health of the blood vessel access used for dialysis, without touching the skin. About 90 adults with kidney failure on regular dialysis will participate. The goal is to see if the device works as…
