简要总结
It is very common for hemodialysis patients to have problems with low blood pressure while on hemodialysis. Low blood pressure on dialysis is not a good thing and it is associated with an increased risk of death and hospitalizations. It might be possible to minimize or even prevent these low blood pressure episodes with a software that can be added to the dialysis machine which detects the patient's changes in blood pressure and automatically slows down how much fluid is being removed from the person.
The investigators hypothesize that a blood pressure guided biofeedback system (called BioLogics RR) will result in a 30% reduction in the number of hypotensive episodes on hemodialysis.
详细描述
This is a randomized cross over trial in which 30 chronic hemodialysis patients with a history of intradialytic hypotension, IDH will be randomized to receive either standard hemodialysis or hemodialysis with blood pressure guided biofeedback (BioLogics RR Comfort, B braun). After the initial period of 8 weeks patients will cross over to the other group for the final 8 weeks of the study.
The primary outcome is the reduction in the number of IDH episodes associated with patient symptoms or nursing symptoms.

结局指标
主要结局
intradialytic hypotension episodes
时间窗: By the end of the 8 week intervention period
A 30% reduction in the frequency of HD sessions complicated by IDH. IDH is defined as a reduction in systolic BP of \> = 20 mmHg if the pre-dialysis BP is \>= 100 mmHg and with patient symptoms or nursing intervention. IDH is defined as a reduction in systolic BP of \>=10 mmHg if predialysis BP \< = 90mm Hg and with patient symptoms or nursing interventions
次要结局
- urea clearance(8 weeks)
- Brain natriuretic peptide(8 weeks)
- intradialytic hypotension (blood pressure criteria alone)(8 weeks)
- Intradialytic symptoms(8 weeks)
