Brief Summary: This study will determine whether a new form of home hemodialysis carried out at night during sleep reduces blood levels of hormone-like substances called cytokines that may cause fatigue and increase blood fats and sugar Participants will stay twice in the Rockefeller Hospital and receive a standard diet and blood testing Training for nocturnal hemodialysis will be provided at the nearby Manhattan Dialysis Center of The Rogosin Institute affiliated with The Rockefeller University
Detailed Description: Patients treated with conventional hemodialysis for at least 3 months and interested in learning home nocturnal hemodialysis will be screened in the Rockefeller Outpatient Research Center If eligible during the first 8 day hospital stay participants will receive a standard diet and dialysis treatment nearby at the Rogosin Institute Dialysis Center During the last 2 days their blood will be frequently sampled for cytokines fats and sugar Dialysate will also be sampled They will have the same diet and tests repeated during a second admission after either 4 months of conventional dialysis or 1 month training for nocturnal dialysis followed by 3 months of home nocturnal dialysis randomized 11 After the second admission patients treated with conventional dialysis will be discharged from the study and trained in nocturnal hemodialysis Off-site computer monitoring will be utilized when patients dialyze themselves at home or during the admission in The Rockefeller University Hospital
