Dietary Potassium Liberalization in Pre-Dialysis Patients (NCT05090865)

Dietary Potassium Liberalization With Fruit and Vegetables Versus Potassium Restriction in People With Chronic Kidney Disease (DK-Lib CKD) Trial

🟒 Recruiting Observational / Diagnostic πŸ“‹ Clinical Research Protocol Sponsor: University of Manitoba

🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

The study will look at the impact of the potassium content in fruits and vegetables, on serum potassium concentrations in people with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) using a randomized crossover design. Participants will receive home delivery of fruit and vegetables with either higher or lower potassium content in a random order. Clinical chemistry markers from blood and urine samples, blood pressure, physical functioning and health related quality of life will be assessed throughout the duration of the trial. This study will also measure their physical functioning, using a chair stand test. The results of this study could change the dietary recommendations for people with CKD related to potassium.
