Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • All-cause mortality: Proportion of patients who die from any cause

    Proportion of patients who die from any cause during observation period.

    From date of enrollment until the end of study, assessed up to 3 years

  • Acute nonfatal cerebro-cardiovascular events before dialysis initiation

    Proportion of patients who suffer from acute nonfatal cerebro-cardiovascular events before dialysis initiation. Cerebro-cardiovascular events include acute myocardial infarction,acute coronary ischemia syndrome,acute heart failure, acute exacerbation of chronic heart failure ,severe arrhythmia, stroke, etc.

    From date of enrollment until the date of dialysis initiation, or the date of death from any cause,or the end of study, whichever came first, assessed up to 3 year

  • Acute nonfatal cerebro-cardiovascular events after dialysis initiation

    Proportion of patients who suffer from acute nonfatal cerebro-cardiovascular events after dialysis initiation. Cerebro-cardiovascular events include acute myocardial infarction,acute coronary ischemia syndrome,acute heart failure, acute exacerbation of chronic heart failure ,severe arrhythmia, stroke, etc.

    From date of dialysis initiation until the date of death from any cause,or the end of study, whichever came first, assessed up to 3 year

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Hospitalization: Proportion of patients who are admitted to hospital

    From date of enrollment until the date of death from any cause,or the end of study, whichever came first, assessed up to 3 year

  • Nutrition assessment

    From date of enrollment until the date of death from any cause,or the end of study, whichever came first, assessed up to 3 years, performed every 3 months

  • Patient reported outcome of quality of life

    From date of enrollment until the date of death from any cause,or the end of study, whichever came first, assessed up to 3 years, once every 3 months

  • Complications of dialysis

    From date of dialysis initiation until the date of death from any cause,or the end of study, whichever came first, assessed up to 3 year

  • Costs

    From date of enrollment until the date of death from any cause,or the end of study, whichever came first, assessed up to 3 years, performed every 3 months

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Deffered Dialysis Initiation

EXPERIMENTAL

Algorithm for deferred dialysis intervention: initiating dialysis in the absence of symptoms in patients with an eGFR of 5 ml/min /1.73 m2 or less

Other: Algorithm for deferred dialysis intervention

Routine dialysis Initiation

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Algorithm for routine dialysis intervention: initiating dialysis in the absence of symptoms in patients with an eGFR of 7 ml/min /1.73 m2 (which is the average GFR for patients in Beijing to start dialysis )

Other: Algorithm for routine dialysis intervention

Interventions

Use combined indications to guide researchers to defer dialyzing progressive CKD patients. Asymptomatic patient will not start dialysis treatment until his eGFR becomes less than 5 ml/min/1.73m2. Or until 1. Patient's Kraemer index is \>6 or with overt fluid overload after trying all conservative means(including appropriate medicines) 2. Patient's Subjective Global Assessment method (SGA) assessment is grade C 3. Patients have indications for emergency dialysis 4. Sever symptoms which cannot be relieved by conservative treatment

Deffered Dialysis Initiation

Use combined indications to guide researchers to initiate dialysis in progressive CKD patients routinely. Researchers will start dialysis treatment for a patient when his eGFR reaches 7 ml/min/1.73m2 in asymptomatic patients. Or patients have indications below: 1. Patient's Kraemer index is \>6 or with overt fluid overload after trying all conservative means(including appropriate medicines) 2. Patient's SGA assessment is grade C 3. Patients have indications for emergency dialysis 4. Sever symptoms which cannot be relieved by conservative treatment

Routine dialysis Initiation

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 80 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Nondialysis-dependent stable CKD stage 4-5 patients (eGFR\>7ml/min /1.73 m2)
  • Willing to choose dialysis as his renal replacement therapy method
  • Heart function: grade I or II (NYHA Functional Classification)

You may not qualify if:

  • The life expectancy of patients is estimated to be short (due to causes other than kidney disease);
  • Acute infection occurred in one month;
  • Myocardial infarction, NYHA class IV or stroke events within 3 months;
  • Uncontrolled malignancy;
  • Active viral hepatitis;
  • Active rheumatic disease;
  • Pregnant women, women intending to conceive after enrollment or breastfeeding woman;
  • Planning to take kidney transplantation within the study period;
  • With indices of emergency dialysis;
  • eGFR less than 7 ml/min/1.73m2 in first visit;
  • Under other clinical studies which has an impact on this study;
  • Unable to provide written informed consent.
