TL;DR: Frequent hemodialysis, as compared with conventional hemodIALysis, was associated with favorable results with respect to the composite outcomes of death or change in left ventricular mass and death orchange in a physical-health composite score but prompted more frequent interventions related to vascular access.
Journal ArticleDOI

John T. Daugirdas,Glenn M. Chertow,Brett Larive,Andreas Pierratos,Tom Greene,Juan Carlos Ayus,Cynthia Kendrick,Sam James,Brent W. Miller,Gerald Schulman,Isidro B. Salusky,Alan S. Kliger +11 more
TL;DR: In conclusion, frequent hemodialysis facilitates control of hyperphosphatemia and extended session lengths could allow more liberal diets and freedom from phosphorus binders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rita S. Suri,Brett Larive,Susan Sherer,Paul W. Eggers,Jennifer J. Gassman,Sam James,Robert M. Lindsay,Robert S. Lockridge,Daniel B. Ornt,Michael V. Rocco,George Ting,Alan S. Kliger +11 more
TL;DR: In conclusion, frequent hemodialysis increases the risk of vascular access complications, and the nature of the AV access repairs suggests that this risk likely results from increased he modialysis frequency rather than heightened surveillance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Raquel C. Greer,Jessica M. Ameling,Kerri L. Cavanaugh,Bernard G. Jaar,Vanessa Grubbs,Carrie E Andrews,Patti L. Ephraim,Neil R. Powe,Julia B. Lewis,Ebele M. Umeukeje,Luis F. Gimenez,Sam James,L. Ebony Boulware +12 more
TL;DR: Both nephrology providers and PCPs desired improved collaboration, including better information exchange and delineation of roles during the RRT preparation process, to improve patients’ preparation and initiation of optimal RRTs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mark Unruh,Manjula Kurella Tamura,Brett Larive,Anjay Rastogi,Sam James,Brigitte Schiller,Jennifer J. Gassman,Christopher T. Chan,Robert S. Lockridge,Alan S. Kliger +9 more
TL;DR: Findings underscore the link between sleep and daytime function and suggest that improving sleep may provide an opportunity to improve outcomes in ESRD.
