Conditions

Renal failure

Interventions

Creatine will be added to the dialysis fluid and will thus be continuously administered during the whole hemodialysis session. We will study the effect of four increasing dosages of creatine (3 out

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The main parameters for the pilot study are the plasma creatine concentration and intra-erythrocytic creatine concentration of both pre- and post-hemodialysis samples. Intra-erythrocytic creatine concentration will be used as a non-invasive proxy for creatine tissue uptake.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary study parameters are hand grip strength as a measure of muscle strength, the combined interdialytic urinary and intradialytic dialysate excretion of creatinine as a measure of muscle mass [1], and bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) as a measure of body composition and nutritional status. Other study parameters are N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) as a cardiac function marker, high sensitivity troponin T (hs-TNT) as a cardiac ischaemia marker, C-reactive protein as an inflammation marker, self-reported physical health using the EQ-6D, SF36, and the DSI, fatigue using the CIS and cognitive functions using the CFQ.
