Study Summary

Individuals with kidney failure receiving maintenance hemodialysis (HD) have high mortality rates, driven largely by cardiovascular causes. Volume-related factors are critical, modifiable contributors to cardiovascular complications. Reversing volume overload has been shown to improve blood pressure and cardiac remodeling. Use of loop diuretics may represent a pragmatic, low-cost, and low-burden strategy to improve outcomes in people receiving HD. Lack of data on optimal furosemide dosing, safety, and acceptability are barriers to expanded use. This study investigates whether oral furosemide is safe and effective at increasing urine volume in HD patients.

Primary Outcome

Participants will follow standard dialysis clinic protocols for 24-urine volume collection. Classifying participants as has having an increase in 24-hour urine volume will be contingent on the amount of urine the participant makes at baseline. * Among participants with baseline 24-hour urine volume ≥200 mL: ≥25% increase in urine volume is considered an increase. * Among participants with baseline 24-hour urine volume \<200 mL: ≥50 mL increase in urine volume to a urine volume of at least 100 m

Interventions

  • DRUG Furosemide (loop diuretic) Tablets
