Nupur Gupta
This study investigates how to best evaluate fluid levels in people who are on home dialysis, which includes peritoneal dialysis and home hemodialysis. The study compares three methods: a patient-reported symptom scale called the modified Medical Research Council (mMRC) dyspnea scale, physical exams by kidney doctors, and lung ultrasounds. These …
