A Comparison of Protein-bound and Large Molecular Weight Uremic Toxin Removals With Novel Super High-flux Dialyzer Between Hemodialysis and High Volume Online Hemodiafiltration Modalities : A Crossover Randomized Controlled Study

The goal of this prospective, randomized, crossover study is to study about using super high-flux dialyzer in the chronic hemodialysis patients.

The main questions aim to answer are the reduction ratio of protein bound uremic toxins

Participants will undergone the pre-dilution online hemodiafiltration and conventional hemodialysis for each 8 weeks followed by washout phase for 4 weeks.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Predilution online hemodiafiltration
The dialysis mode will be set as predilution online hemodiafiltration for 8 weeks.
Super-high flux dialyzers (ELISIO21HX) will be used. The blood flow rate and dialysate flow rate will be set as 400 and 800 ml/min respectively for 4 hours of dialysis.
Other Names:
  • Super-high flux dialyzer
Active Comparator: Hemodialysis
The dialysis mode will be set as conventional hemodialysis for 8 weeks.
Super-high flux dialyzers (ELISIO21HX) will be used. The blood flow rate and dialysate flow rate will be set as 400 and 800 ml/min respectively for 4 hours of dialysis.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Protein bound uremic toxin reduction ratio (percent)
Time Frame: 8 weeks
The reduction ratio of indoxyl sulfate will be calculated as percent by pre and post dialysis data. The measurement will take place in the pre-dialysis of the first and the last time of intervention
8 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Beta2 microglobulin, kappa and lambda free light chain and urea reduction ratio (percent)
Time Frame: 8 weeks
The reduction ratio of the beta2 microglobulin, kappa and lambda free light chain and urea will be measure at the first and the last time of intervention by pre and post dialysis level.
8 weeks
Serum albumin and dialysate albumin loss
Time Frame: 8 weeks

Serum albumin will be followed at the midweek pre-dialysis at the first and 8th weeks of intervention.

Dialysate albumin will also be assessed at the 1st and the 8th weeks.

8 weeks
Quality of life assessment in each group
Time Frame: 8 weeks
Quality of life was assessed by the KDQOL36 questionnaire in each intervention
8 weeks
