Post by: Roadrunner on May 06, 2008, 05:51:44 AM

Check out this site.  This site lists studies being done using the NxStage.  It gives contact persons if you are interested in participating.  Most are dependent on where you live.

Some of the studies are:

Comparison of Nocturnal Hemodialysis (NHD) and Short Daily Hemodialysis (DHD) With the NxStage® System One™

Phosphorus and Calcium Removal During Long Hemodialysis Treatment Sessions

I'm in the nocturnal study. You need 2 months of stable dialysis before you can start the Nocturnal.
I should be doing it within 3 weeks i believe!! :2thumbsup;

Migaguiar, let us know how it goes.

 It's always good to be in a study, they really look at everything.  You'll learn a lot.

Good Luck! :clap;
