NCT02002949

Brief Summary

The purpose of this randomized study is to determine if the home SDHD is a suitable alternative to conventional dialysis performed in a dialysis center for patients suffering from chronic kidney disease from Peritoneal Dialysis (HAPD/CAPD). The adequacy of this alternative dialysis technique confirms that the SDHD at home is a viable option for patients coming from HAPD/CAPD and indeed support the clinical benefits of home SDHD compared with those of conventional dialysis: lowering blood pressure and lower use of antihypertensive drugs , improving the quality of life, maintenance of residual renal function related to a reduced risk of death and reduction in operating costs of dialysis and patient transport.

Study Arms (2)

Short daily hemodialsysis

EXPERIMENTAL

Short Daily Hemodialysis (SDHD) - 5 or 6 treatments per week for approximately 3 hours (range 2 to 4 hours) per treatment, to be performed at the patient's home, using any hemodialysis machine as chosen by the responsible clinician in each participating center

Procedure: Short daily hemodialysis

Conventional hemodialysis

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Conventional Hemodialysis (CHD) - 3 treatments per week for approximately 4 hours (range 3 hours and 30 minutes to 4 hours) per treatment, to be performed in a dialysis clinic using any hemodialysis machine as chosen by the responsible clinicians in each participating center

Procedure: Conventional hemodialysis

Interventions

5 or 6 treatments per week for approximately 3 hours (range 2 to 4 hours) per treatment, to be performed at the patient's home, using any hemodialysis machine as chosen by the responsible clinician in each participating center

Short daily hemodialsysis

3 treatments per week for approximately 4 hours (range 3 hours and 30 minutes to 4 hours) per treatment, to be performed in a dialysis clinic using any hemodialysis machine as chosen by the responsible clinicians in each participating center
