Abstract

Background: Cognitive impairment is common in haemodialysis patients with no known beneficial interventions. Cooler dialysate slows brain white-matter changes, but its effect on cognition is unknown. This feasibility trial was performed to inform a fully-powered, randomised trial to assess this. Met...

Methods: We aimed to randomise (1:1) 90 haemodialysis patients to this double-blinded, randomised controlled feasibility trial to standard care (dialysate-temperature 36.5 &#xB0;C) or intervention (35 &#xB0;C).
