NCT03057392

Brief Summary

Immersion to the neck before and during hemodialysis session may increase intravascular volume, potentiate the ability to ultrafiltrate excess water, with less symptoms of shock, muscle crumps etc. The aim of the present study is to compare blood volume, hemodynamic and endocrine parameters of chronic ESRD patients undergoing forth dialysis session in water immersion vs. control regular session.
