The investigation is a prospective cohort study, where two patient groups will be monitored by a wearable bioimpedance sensor during their scheduled treatment. The overall objective is to assess the bioimpedance sensor's ability to detect local and systemic fluid accumulation. Sub-investigation A will investigate the ability of the device to detect fluid accumulation in patients with stable chronic kidney disease undergoing regular and planned hemodialysis. Sub-investigation B will investigate the ability of the device to track hydration status in patients scheduled for an "intensive" dialysis treatment regime, due to severe overhydration.
