Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Effect of meal versus no meal consumption during hemodialysis on intradialytic blood pressure

    Meal consumption is expected to lower intradialytic blood pressure and increase hypotensive events during hemodialysis. Intradialytic blood pressure will be evaluated with the use of the brachial cuff-based oscillometric device Mobil-O-Graph NG (IEM, Stolberg, Germany) during the midweek dialysis session.

    3 weeks

  • Effect of high versus low protein meal consumption during dialysis on intradialytic blood pressure

    High protein meals are expected to affect less intradialytic blood pressure than low protein meals. Intradialytic blood pressure will be evaluated with the use of the brachial cuff-based oscillometric device Mobil-O-Graph NG (IEM, Stolberg, Germany) during the midweek dialysis session.

    3 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Effect of high versus low protein meal consumption during dialysis on 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure

    3 weeks

  • Effect of high versus low protein meal consumption during dialysis on Pulse Wave Velocity

    3 weeks

  • Effect of high versus low protein meal consumption during dialysis on Augmentation Index

    3 weeks

  • Effect of high versus low protein meals during dialysis on hemodialysis adequacy.

    3 weeks

  • Effect of high versus low protein meals during dialysis on patients nutritional status

    3 weeks

Study Arms (3)

High-protein meals

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients with End Stage Renal disease on maintenance hemodialysis will consume high protein meals during their dialysis sessions for one week.

Other: High-protein meals

Low-protein meals

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients with End Stage Renal disease on maintenance hemodialysis will consume low protein meals during their dialysis sessions for one week

Other: Low- protein meals

No meals

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients with End Stage Renal disease on maintenance hemodialysis will not consume meals during their dialysis sessions for one week

Other: No meals

Interventions

Patients on maintenance hemodialysis will consume high protein meals during dialysis for one week (3 dialysis sessions)

High-protein meals

Patients on maintenance hemodialysis will consume low protein meals during dialysis for one week (3 dialysis sessions)

Low-protein meals

Patients on maintenance hemodialysis will not consume meals during dialysis for one week (3 dialysis sessions)

No meals
