Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • blood pressure variability.

    visit to visit blood pressure variability in both groups.

    2 weeks after the study duration (3 months).

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • interdialytic weight gain

    2 weeks after the study duration (3 months).

  • antihypertensive medication regimen

    2 weeks after the study duration (3 months).

  • the frequency of intradialytic adverse events

    2 weeks after the study duration (3 months).

Study Arms (2)

Group A: standard hemodialysis.

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

patients who will undergo standard hemodialysis (dialysate sodium concentration 143 mmoL/L)

Procedure: standard hemodialysis

Group B: lower dialysate sodium hemodialysis.

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

patients who will undergo hemodialysis with lower dialysate sodium concentration (140 mmoL/L).

Procedure: lower dialysate sodium dialysis

Interventions

patients who will undergo standard hemodialysis (dialysate sodium concentration 143 mmoL/L)

Group A: standard hemodialysis.

patients who will undergo hemodialysis with lower dialysate sodium concentration (140 mmoL/L)

Group B: lower dialysate sodium hemodialysis.

  • History of acute cardiovascular accidents or infections during 3 months preceding entry into the study.
  • Patients prone to hypotension or other intradialytic adverse events.
  • Patients participating in another interventional study that may affect blood pressure.
