Brief Summary: Hemodialysis remains associated with a high mortality approximately 22 per year and many complications despite improvements over the last twenty years Several nephrologists have suggested that increasing the frequency and amount of dialysis will result in improved outcomes In fact various forms of daily dialysis have been performed in over 300 patients in the last 30 years with improvements in blood pressure quality-of-life bone disease and other complications of renal failure Whether this form of treatment can be expanded to the 220000 Americans on hemodialysis is unknown The primary outcome of this study is to determine the effectiveness of nocturnal dialysis in hemodialysis patients in St Louis If the pilot study is effective then participation in a larger multicenter trial is expected The endpoints measured are use of antihypertensive medications improvement in secondary hyperparathyroidism and use of phosphorus binders quality-of-life measured by SF-36 surveys and improvement in physical function as measured by maximal oxygen uptake
