| Scientific title | Safety and efficacy study of high cut-off haemodialysis as a maintenance therapy for end stage renal failure: a randomised crossover trial |
| Study objectives | The increased removal of middle molecules and protein bound toxins by high cut-off haemodialysis will reduce inflammation in chronic dialysis patients. |
| Ethics approval(s) | Leicestershire, Northamptonshire and Rutland Research Ethics Committee 2, ref: 10/H0402/31 |
| Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | End stage renal failure, haemodialysis |
| Intervention | High cut-off dialysis |
| Intervention type | Other |
| Primary outcome measure(s) |
Safety as defined by the maintenance of serum albumin. |
| Key secondary outcome measure(s) |
1. Kinetics of removal of uraemic toxins (middle molecules and protein bound toxins) and the corresponding sustained reductions seen with the different dialysis schedules evaluated. |
