Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  Fresenius 4008S(Fresenius Medical Care AG & Co. KGaA, Bad Hambourg, Germany)  The market standard Fresenius 4008S hemodialysis machine that can perform both dialysis and isolated ultrafiltration. This device has been designed and developed with the aim to reduce the coast of hemodialysis within India and developing countries. The machine is fitted with standard extracorporeal consumables available in the market. The aim of utlising a baseline HD session is to compare the outcomes of the intervention RxT17. 
Intervention  Renalyx RxT17 HD  An indigenous hemodialysis machine that can perform both dialysis and isolated ultrafiltration. This device has been designed and developed with the aim to reduce the coast of hemodialysis within India and developing countries. The machine is fitted with standard extracorporeal consumables available in the market. The aim of the study is to test the safety and efficacy of the Renalyx RxT17 HD in addition to test the remote monitoring faeture of the hemodialysis device.

Individual Participant Data (IPD) Sharing Statement

Will individual participant data (IPD) be shared publicly (including data dictionaries)?  

Brief Summary   This is a prospective study, open labelled, controlled crossover interventional study designed to provide the phase-2 trial data of the first Indian hemodialysis device (RxT17). One hundred and thirty sessions of hemodialysis involving stable chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage -V subjects, receiving regular intermittent hemodialysis (HD) treatment via an arteriovenous fistula  as vascular access, will be studied. The RxT17 device is intended to potentially respond to the unmet public health needs of the rural Indian CKD-V patients. The patients will also be monitored using a remote care delivery model in addition to the conventional care using the Fresenius 4008S machine for comparision of primary outcomes. It is expected to improve outcomes, reduce costs and provide treatment access to patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD), especially in rural India and developing world.
