Blood Pressure Control With Thiazide Diuretics in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

November 26, 2025 updated by: Chan Chun Kau Gordon, Chinese University of Hong Kong
To evaluate the blood pressure lowering effects of thiazide diuretics in patients on peritoneal dialysis

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This prospective, single-center treatment-withdrawal crossover study enrolled 10 patients on chronic peritoneal dialysis (PD) and uncontrolled hypertension (SBP >140 mmHg and/or DBP >90 mmHg).

Following written informed consent, participants entered the treatment arm, receiving oral hydrochlorothiazide once daily on top of their standard of treatment for 90 days. This was followed by a 14-day washout period, after which participants entered a 90-day control period.
