NCT00218790

Brief Summary

A major component of this study is to test a novel application for a safe, non-pharmacologic, cost-effective intervention that is already in use in clinical practice - using cool dialysate during hemodialysis to help stabilize the sleep/wake cycle of chronic hemodialysis patients. We will also evaluate its effects on selected sleep-related physiologic, psychological, behavioral, and general health outcomes.
