Brief Summary

Hyperkalemia is common in End-Stage Renal Disease on chronic hemodialysis patients. The most common cause of mortality in End-Stage Renal Disease patients is sudden cardiac death caused by hyperkalemia. Hyperkalemia also increased urgent dialysis and hospitalization rate. Thus, the management for hyperkalemia in End-Stage Renal Disease patients is crucial, including restricting dietary potassium, medication control, and dialysis dosage adjustment. In the ordinary diet, the significant sources of potassium are vegetables and fruit. In our study, the investigators try to find out the influence of low potassium content vegetables for serum potassium control in End-Stage Renal Disease on chronic hemodialysis patients. This study is a prospective cohort study; the investigators enroll forty End-Stage Renal Disease on hemodialysis patients and perform this study in eight weeks period. The investigators conduct a randomized, double-blind and cross-over trial for investigating the influence of low potassium content vegetables on End-Stage Renal Disease patients. The serum potassium level will record under different potassium content vegetables. The possible adverse effects of low potassium content vegetables, cardiac arrhythmia, will also obtain by chart records during this study.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change of serum potassium level

    Measure pre-dialysis serum potassium

    two weeks

Study Arms (2)

Low potassium then normal potassium

EXPERIMENTAL

After giving the vegetables with low potassium content vegetables for 2 weeks, the serum potassium level was recorded; after 2 weeks of washing time, the normal potassium content vegetables was given for 2 weeks, and the serum potassium concentration was recorded and the test was terminated.

Dietary Supplement: Low potassium content vegetables

Normal potassium then low potassium

EXPERIMENTAL

After giving the normal potassium content vegetables for 2 weeks, the serum potassium concentration was recorded; after 2 weeks of washing time, the low potassium content vegetables use for 2 weeks, then the serum potassium level was recorded at the time. The test was terminated.

Dietary Supplement: Low potassium content vegetables

Interventions

use low-potassium content vegetables

Low potassium then normal potassiumNormal potassium then low potassium

Model Details: This study will enroll 40 End-Stage Renal Disease on chronic hemodialysis patients. We will perform a randomized, double-blind, cross over study. In one group, low potassium content vegetables use as study intervention for two weeks (study phase), then shift to placebo (ordinary vegetables) for two weeks. In another group, ordinary vegetables will use firstly, then change to low potassium content vegetable use. Serum potassium, blood pressure, and biochemistries will analyze at the end of the study.
