High-flux Hemodialysis Versus Hemodiafiltration for End-Stage Renal Disease

March 5, 2018 updated by: Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital
This study evaluates the effect of high-flux hemodialysis compared to hemodiafiltration on small and moderate molecule substances clearance. Meanwhile, this study evaluates the effect of high-flux hemodialysis compared to hemodiafiltration on cardiac function. In this self matching study, participants will receive high-flux hemodialysis compared to hemodiafiltration.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Hemodialysis using diffusion, ultrafiltration and convection principle to remove harmful substances in the blood and excessive water, is one of the most commonly replacement therapy.

Hemodiafiltration is a combination of hemodialysis and hemofiltration with two modes of treatment advantages, both by diffusion and convection principle to remove harmful substances in the blood.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Clearance of moderate molecule substance
Time Frame: 4 hours after dialysis
Clearance rate of b2-microglobulin for one dialysis.
4 hours after dialysis

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Left ventricular ejection fraction
Time Frame: 4 hours after dialysis
Left ventricular ejection fraction is calculated by dividing the volume of blood pumped from the left ventricle per beat, also known as stroke volume, by the end-diastolic volume.
4 hours after dialysis
