Description

Summary

This study is to prospectively compare clinical effectiveness between clinically- matched incremental hemodialysis and conventional hemodialysis in patients with incident kidney dysfunction requiring dialysis and residual kidney function.

Official Title

Comparative Effectiveness of an Individualized Model of Hemodialysis Versus Conventional Hemodialysis

Details

This study will analyze the effects of differentiated care with individualized hemodialysis on patient health related quality of life, fatigue, employment, and caregiver burden in patients with Kidney dysfunction requiring dialysis (KDRD) and appreciable kidney function.

This study will compare the outcomes in survival, hospitalization, preservation of the kidney function and quality of life between hemodialysis tailored to each patient needs (incremental) and conventional hemodialysis.
