Study Summary

Intra-dialytic hypotensive (IDH) events can be defined as an abrupt decline in blood pressure that cause symptoms and/or require an intervention. They are common, affecting up to one third of maintenance HD sessions. Detrimental associations include: development of myocardial stunning, cerebral hypo-perfusion, vascular access thrombosis and greater mortality. Rapid solute removal by HD generates temporary osmotic gradients between the intra-vascular and intra-cellular compartments, promoting trans-cellular fluid movement and resultant hypotension. Manipulation of osmotic gradients, e.g. using higher dialysate sodium (DNa), may ameliorate excess SBP decline during HD. This study aims to assess the effects of higher (142 mmol/L) versus lower (138 mmol/L) dialysate sodium (DNa) use in adult chronic hemodialysis patients admitted to hospital on intra-dialytic blood pressure and biomarkers of cardiac ischemia. The investigators will randomly assign subjects to higher versus lower DNa during their hospital stay, up to a maximum of six HD sessions.

Primary Outcome

Pre-dialysis SBP minus lowest intra-dialytic SBP. The data table reflect the change in systolic blood pressured (SBP) assessed at up to 6 HD sessions, where the change for each session was calculated as the pre-SBP minus the lowest SBP (during the session), and the change values from the multiple sessions were then averaged for a participant.

Interventions

  • DRUG Lower dialysate sodium (138 mmol/L; using Renasol hemodialysis concentrate)
  • DRUG Higher dialysate sodium (142 mmol/L; using Renasol hemodialysis concentrate)
