NCT01468363

Brief Summary

There is no easily applicable method to determine extra cellular volume and consequently estimate DW. Thus DW has to be clinically defined by ''trial and error'' and several indirect methods. Recently, devices to measure DW by Bioimpedance spectroscopy (BİS) have become available. This non-invasive, cheap easily repeatable method has the potential to improve dialysis outcome in the majority of patients all over the world, The aim of the present project is to assess the feasibility of volume control by using a BİS device.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Evidence of hypervolemia confirmed by non-invasive bioimpedance spectroscopy technique

    within 1 year

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Achievement of normal blood pressure level without using anti-hypertensive medication

    within 1 year

Study Arms (2)

Group 1

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

"Overhydration (OH) in liters" will be estimated with the BCM (Body Composition Monitor, Fresenius Medical Care, Deutschland GmbH) in order to determine dry weight as needed before a dialysis session. 1. If OH is positive value, we will try to reach dry weight by ultrafiltration without regard to the level of blood pressure. 2. If OH is negative value , we will not change dry weight.

Device: Dry weight adjustment

Group 2

NO INTERVENTION

BCM results obtained at the beginning and 12th months will not be given to the treating physicians. Dry weight estimation will be guided by clinical findings, telecardiography, and echocardiography as used to be.

Device: Dry weight adjustment

Interventions

Dry weight adjustment according to BCM results

Also known as: Group 1: BCM Adjusted Group, Group 2: Classical Group
