Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

  • SDF is validated by measuring changes in microcirculation in sepsis patients with MOF (Boerma studies).

  • SDF is validated by measuring changes in microcirculation in stable chronic hemodialysis patients (NDT 2009 Bemelmans).

  • Ultrafiltration in stable chronic hemodialysis leads to a decrease in sublingual microcirculatory flow (NDT 2009 Bemelmans).

  • Trendelenburg position improves the sublingual microcirculatory flow at the end of hemodialysis treatment (NDT 2009 Bemelmans).

  • Hemodialysis with ultrafiltration leads to a significant reduction of myocardial perfusion and cardiac output (NDT 2009 Dasselaar)

  • Cardiac output measurement during dialysis is not practical.

  • BVM is a validated method for hypotension due to ultrafiltration to prevent the amount of ultrafiltration online change based on the measured haemoconcentration (ref Dasselaar et al NDT 2005).

  • BCM is a validated measurement to the dry weight in hemodialysis patients measured by a bioimpedance technique (NDT Passauer et al 2009).

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase

    Detailed Description

    The search for an optimal method of ultrafiltration with minimal hypoperfusion of vital organs.

    • Stabile hemodialysis patients with dialysis dependancy for more than 3 months, with adequate access

    • Study duration 3 weeks

    • Number of hemodialysis treatment for purposes of study: 3

    • Timing hemodialysis treatments for Study session Monday or Tuesday after the weekend (randomized design in the sessions)

    • session a: 5 hours total duration: 4 hours HD without UF followed by 1 hour GUF

    • Session b: 4 hours total duration: 4 hours HD with UF

    • session c: 4 hours total duration: 4 hours HD with UF and BVM

    • UF is determined by actual target weight.

    • Measurements during sessions:

    • In each session in advance: blood pressure, pulse, weight, BCM, laboratory tests (Hb, Hct, Na, K, urea, creatinine, calcium, albumin, phosphate, nt-proBNP, troponin T, CRP)

    • During each session at t = 0, t = 1 hour, t =2 hours and t = 4 hours: SDF, blood pressure, pulse, UF at that time, UF rate at that time

    • End each session: blood pressure, pulse, weight, BCM, laboratory tests (Hb, Hct, Na, K, urea, creatinine, calcium, albumin, phosphate, nt-proBNP, troponin T, CRP)
