研究概览
简要总结
The present study is aimed at comparing different strategies of UF profiling, dialysate sodium individualization and sodium profiling (even combining one with the other) and at evaluating the effectiveness of a new UF profile which has an ascending/descending shape. The goal of the study is to provide better dialysis tolerance and lower rates of intradialytic hypotensive events by the application of this UF profile design in combination with a neutral sodium balance.
详细描述
This is a prospective, randomized, crossover trial. The study will be performed in 2 phases. Each phase will be divided in several sub-phases (see "4.1 Study phases"). Phase 1 will consist of 9 weeks of treatment (27 HD sessions) for each patient; phase 2 will consist of 11 weeks of treatment (33 HD sessions) for each patient. Each subject will be used as his/her own control. Dry weight, anti-hypertensive medications and dialysis parameters will not be modified during the study phases, except for UF rate and dialysate sodium concentration.
Study phases
1 - First phase: validation of the new UF profile with a standard dialysate sodium concentration
- run-in: constant Na concentration, constant UF rate - 2 weeks (6 sessions)
- 2-step descending Na profile, linear descending UF profile - 3 weeks (9 sessions)
- washout: constant Na concentration, constant UF rate - 1 week (3 sessions)
- 2-step descending Na profile, ascending/descending UF profile - 3 weeks (9 sessions)
2 - Second phase: combination of UF profiles and individualized dialysate sodium concentration

结局指标
主要结局
Occurrence of intradialytic hypotensive episodes (number of episodes within every HD session and time interval from HD start)
时间窗: Within each dialysis session from the time of enrolment to the end of each study phase (9-11 weeks)
Hypotensive events and symptoms (headache, cramps, nausea and vomiting) will be recorded and analyzed as both number of occurrences and time of occurrence from the beginning of the HD session. IDH will be defined as follows: * "symptomatic IDH": decrease in SBP ≥ 20 mmHg or in MAP ≥ 10 mmHg associated with symptoms (KDIGO definition) * "asymptomatic IDH": drop in BP (SBP ≥ 20 mmHg or MAP ≥ 10 mmHg) within a 20 minutes interval, regardless of symptoms * for patients whose SBP is \< 100 mmHg at the beginning of treatment, the investigators will consider as IDH any decrease of SBP ≥ 10%
次要结局
- Achievement of UF(Within each dialysis session from the time of enrolment to the end of each study phase (9-11 weeks))
- Dialysis dose(Within each dialysis session from the time of enrolment to the end of each study phase (9-11 weeks))
