Dialysis sparks new insights: tiny electrical changes measured
NCT ID NCT04892745
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This pilot study looked at how hemodialysis changes the electrical properties of skin and muscle in 18 adults on chronic dialysis. Researchers measured these changes to better understand fluid shifts during treatment. The goal was to gather knowledge, not to test a new treatment.
