Brief Summary

End-stage renal disease (ESRD) is a common clinical condition. In this population, the prevalence of systemic hypertension is high and its adequate control can determinate the outcome. The first step for a good control of blood pressure in renal patients is adjusting his/her dry weight. Actually, dry weight is assessed based on clinical examination and blood pressure. The electrical bioimpedance is a simple and portable device. The investigators design a randomized clinical trial for evaluating two ways of getting the best dry weight for hemodialysis patients. A basal 24h ABPM will be taken before the randomization. Then, 2 weeks later the dry weight be revised, the investigators will get a second 24h ABPM.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Diastolic and systolic blood pressure assessed by ABPM

    A basal measure will be taken at the start point. Then, the dry weight will be evaluated by clinical or BIA method. After 2 weeks of tree times-week sections of hemodialysis under the revised dry weight, a second measure of ABPM will be performed.

    after 2 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • intradialytic signals and/or symptoms

    during two weeks

Study Arms (2)

Clinical dry weight

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Group which the dry weight will be assessed based on clinical examination.

Procedure: Clinical

Bioimpedance

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Group which the dry weight will be assessed by bioimpedance data.

Device: electrical bioimpedance

Interventions

ClinicalPROCEDURE

Each patient will be submitted a clinical evaluation, considering signals of overload.

Clinical dry weight

From electrical bioimpedance data, will be fixed a revised dry weight for each patient.
