Comparing two types of dialyzers for ESKD patients with sepsis
Official title: Comparing Super High-flux and High-flux Dialyzer Performance Among Hemodialysis Patient With Sepsis : a Randomized Control Trial
Run by Navamindradhiraj University · NCT06989892 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study is testing whether a new type of dialyzer can help patients with end-stage kidney disease and sepsis live longer and have better health outcomes compared to a standard dialyzer.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are ESKD patients with sepsis and elevated interleukin-6 levels.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients requiring continuous kidney replacement therapy or those expected to pass away within 24 hours will not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This study compares the efficacy of super high-flux dialyzers to high-flux dialyzers in patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) who are experiencing sepsis. It is an open-label, single-center, randomized control trial that aims to determine if the super high-flux dialyzer can improve mortality rates and outcomes in these patients. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the two dialyzer groups, with a focus on those exhibiting high levels of interleukin-6. The primary endpoint of the study is mortality within 28 days of treatment.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved survival rates and better management of sepsis in ESKD patients.
How similar studies have gone: While this approach is novel in the context of ESKD and sepsis, similar studies have shown promising results with high-flux dialyzers in other patient populations.
