description ABSTRACT Chronic kidney disease–associated pruritus (CKD-aP) is a common complication in dialysis patients which is not fully addressed by pharmacological and dialytic therapy. The objective was to review the literature on the effects of extracorporeal blood purification modalities on CKD-aP. The population comprised patients aged ≥18 years on chronic dialysis. PubMed, Embase, and Medline were systematically searched until February 2024 for clinical studies comparing the effect of different dialysis modalities on pruritus intensity. Two reviewers extracted data independently. Risk of bias for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) was assessed using the Cochrane tool. Any extracorporeal blood purification therapy for the treatment of CKD-aP was included. Outcome was quantitative change in pruritus intensity on a validated itching scale. This review included eight RCTs examining five different dialysis modalities, three observational studies examining three dialysis modalities, and six prospective clinical trials assessing four dialysis modalities. These treatments included peritoneal dialysis, low-flux and high-flux dialysis, hemodiafiltration, expanded hemodialysis, hemadsorption, hemodiafiltration with endogenous reinfusion and dialysis with polymethylmethacrylate membrane. Risk of bias was high in most studies. The largest body of evidence was found for the efficacy of hemadsorption. Limitations of evidence included heterogeneity in diagnostic tools and treatment, risk of selection bias, small sample sizes and short follow-up durations that made it challenging to perform a robust systematic review and meta-analysis. Despite the high prevalence of pruritus among dialysis patients, current evidence for efficacy of standard dialytic treatment is weak. The only technique that appears to be effective is hemoadsorption alone or coupled with hemodialysis. More high-quality studies are needed to confirm the long-term benefits.
