Clotting With Different Dialyzer Membranes (TAGPSOLACEA)

October 22, 2018 updated by: University College, London

Pilot Study to Determine the Effect of Different Dialyzer Membranes on Clotting During Haemodiafiltration Treatments in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease

Primary Objective:

The purpose of this study is to measure the amount of convection achieved with two different haemodiafilters designed for haemodiafiltration and clotting during haemodiafiltration treatment.

Conditions

Detailed Description

This is a prospective observational cohort pilot study of patients under the care of the Royal Free Hospital with chronic kidney disease who have been established on regular thrice weekly haemodiafiltration treatments in a dialysis centre. Information on the study will be disseminated to the Royal Free consultant nephrologists at the dialysis centre with primary responsibility for the individual patient.
