About this trial

This is an interventional diagnostic trial for End Stage Renal Disease

Eligibility Criteria

21 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients who currently undergo in-clinic hemodialysis treatment prescribed 2 or 3 times per week
  • Patients willing to be implanted with the Reveal LINQ™ device
  • Patients greater than 21 years of age
  • Patients willing and able to comply with the study procedures including giving informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patient has an active implanted cardiac medical device (e.g. IPG, ICD, CRT, etc)
  • Patients who currently undergo home dialysis treatment
  • Patient is enrolled in another study that could confound the results of this study, without documented pre-approval from a Medtronic study manager.
  • Patient with a recent infection defined as 1) bacteremia within 60 days OR 2) (nonbacteremic) infection within 14 days
  • Patient not suitable for Reveal LINQ™ implantation (e.g., severe cachexia, dermatologic conditions of the skin, or major medical or social conditions expected to reduce survival to < 6 months), in the opinion of the investigator

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Diagnostic

Arm Description

'Reveal LINQ™ Insertable Cardiac Monitor' will be used to measure changes in subject subcutaneous impedance and compare with the fluid status assessed by the volume removed from the hemodialysis subject during dialysis sessions.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Average Fluid Volume Removed
The average fluid volume removal during the dialysis session over all patients.
Change in Subcutaneous Impedance
The change in impedance from the beginning to the end of a dialysis session, averaged over all patients and dialysis sessions

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to investigate the use of subcutaneous impedance measured with an implanted Medtronic Reveal LINQ™ insertable cardiac monitor for use as a fluid status monitor in hemodialysis patients. The study will measure the changes in subject subcutaneous impedance and compare with the fluid status assessed by the volume removed from the hemodialysis subject during dialysis sessions. Subcutaneous impedance trends will also be evaluated between dialysis sessions.
