Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Correlation of common femoral vein doppler with volume status in a patient on outpatient hemodialysisTimepoint: Baseline (before starting dialysis) and at 4 hours (immediately upon completing hemodialysis session which is usually 4 hours)

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Correlation between change in common femoral vein doppler congestion with hemodialysis & ultrafiltration during outpatient hemodialysisTimepoint: Baseline (before starting dialysis) & at 4 hours (immediately upon completing hemodialysis session, which is usually 4 hours);Correlation between change in common femoral vein doppler parameters with clinical symptoms of volume overload or volume depletion during hemodialysisTimepoint: Baseline (before starting dialysis) & at 4 hours (immediately upon completing hemodialysis session, which is usually 4 hours);To comment upon the utility of common femoral vein doppler in setting target ultrafiltration in outpatient hemodialysisTimepoint: Baseline only
