Variability in Micro-CT Imaging Results to Quantify Dialyzer Clotting

Prospective Study of Micro-CT Imaging to Quantify Dialyzer Clotting in Patients With End Stage Kidney Disease Undergoing Hemodialysis

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 22 Feb 2024

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Different cross-over studies have been performed investigating dialyzer fiber patency in different dialysis setups. Herewith, post dialysis micro computed tomography (CT) images of the dialyzer were compared. For the best interpretation of such results, one should have an idea about the intrapatient variability. There is also no clue about the impact of long distance transportation and long cold storage on the reproducibility of the micro CT images. Another bottle neck is that, up till now, no biochemical parameter or test has been found associated with the outcome of dialyzer fiber patency post dialysis. The present study therefore aims at determining the intrapatient variability and the impact on the micro CT results of long distance transportation and long cold storage of the dialyzers. Also, whole blood thrombin generation tests are performed to look for associations with the micro CT results.
