Protocol summary

Study aim
Determine and Comparison of the effect of (low flow) and (high flow) filters on fatigue and sleep quality of patients undergoing hemodialysis treatment
Design
This research is a clinical trial study with a control group, with parallel groups, one score, randomized, on 32 patients. The lottery method is used for randomization.
Settings and conduct
The environment of this research is dialysis centers covered by Zabol University of Medical Sciences. Participants are randomly assigned to two groups. A score means that the subjects do not know which group they are in.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Informed consent, suffering from end-stage kidney disease, at least 6 months have passed since the start of hemodialysis treatment, dialysis three times a week and four hours each time, age more than 18 years, maximum age 60 years... Temporary exclusion criteria: Blood pressure more than 140/90 and less than 100/60 mm Hg at the start of hemodialysis, body temperature more than 38 and less than 36 degrees Celsius at the start of hemodialysis, dialysis interruption for any reason during 3 dialysis sessions, agitation and Restlessness, severe and uncontrollable vomiting during hemodialysis, changes in diet, taking drugs that affect fatigue and sleep.
Intervention groups
In both groups, before each intervention, the fatigue intensity and sleep quality questionnaires are completed. Group A is subjected to hemodialysis by standard method using low flux filter (PES13), for 6 sessions of 4 hours, during two weeks. Group B will undergo hemodialysis for 6 sessions of 4 hours during two weeks using high flux filter (PES130). Questionnaires will be completed by both groups on the day after the third meeting.
