Sponsor's own description

Determination of dry weight in patients with end-stage renal disease treated with hemodialysis is an unmet challenge in clinical nephrology. Current methods are imprecise, and thus many patients are hype- or hypovolemic, and suffer respective consequences such as hypertension, pulmonary congestion, cardiac hypertrophy, chronic dehydration, hypotension and shock. Several techniques have been proposed to asses hydration status in dialysis patient, among them measurement of bioimpedance and biochemical markers. Sonographic measurement of the inferior vena cava diameter (IVCD) is a method under investigation for assessing hydration status. It is available, inexpensive and efficient, yet operator-dependent. In a single-center, blinded and controlled trial it has been shown to improve clinical outcomes in patients receiving hemodialysis. In this study, we aim to assess the applicability and clinical utility of this method in our dialysis units. A crossover design is intended to examine the effect of IVCD measurement on quality of life and rate of hemodynamic adversities as compared with traditional estimation of dry weight.
