简要总结
For the end stage renal disease (ESRD) patients undergoing hemodialysis treatment, specifically, reflex mediated calf muscle pump stimulation has the potential to significantly reduce the number and magnitude of hypotensive episodes thus enhancing the effectiveness of the dialysis process. Fewer hemodialysis complications during the patient's hemodialysis treatment, would allow treatment sessions to continue to the prescribed volume removal, with much reduced patient recovery time, and the costs associated with this recovery.
详细描述
Recruit individuals who consistently miss their dialysis goal. Maintain the goal over a six week period of time. Utilize exogenous calf muscle pump stimulation during each dialysis session to enhance fluid return from the lower limbs with the objective of assisting the patient in reaching ultrafiltration goal.
Track number of hypotensive events during dialysis, as well as goal success.
