Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
The primary outcome is intradialytic hypotension. We defined intradialytic hypotension as the presence of a decrease in blood pressure from pre-dialysis blood pressure of 20 mmHg or more at any time during dialysis. Blood pressure will be measured every hour during dialysis. <br><br>[Dialysis parameters during intervention and non-intervention period will be recorded during the entire duration of the study (7 weeks). These parameters will be measured during every dialysis (three times a week) in the treatment period and non-treatment period. ]
