Filter by:OCE-205 is being tested to treat participants who have developed Hepatorenal Syndrome-Acute Kidney Injury as a complication of cirrhosis with ascites. The study aims are to evaluate the safety and efficacy of OCE-205 at various doses. Participants will receive treatment by intravenous infusion. Participants will continue with this treatment until participants meets primary endpoint or any discontinuation criteria.
The increasing number of patients who develop perioperative acute kidney injury (AKI) is partly related to the aging population and the increasing number of individuals with chronic comorbidities, particularly those with premorbid chronic kidney disease. Anesthesiologists and surgeons will increasingly have to deal with such patients who are elderly and have comorbidities and require major surgery. The aim of this study was to determine the incidence of postoperative acute kidney injury (primary aim) in patients aged 65 and over who underwent elective major gynecological-oncological surgery under general anesthesia in Ankara City Hospital Gynecology-Oncology Operating Room between January 2020-2022 and were followed up in the PACU in the postoperative period. To investigate risk factors and their results in a retrospective manner in line with the KDIGO criteria (secondary purpose).
Critically ill patients with acute kidney injury and fluid overload who are frequently treated by fluid removal during dialysis are at an increased risk of complications and death. Both slower and faster rates of fluid removal may cause injury to the vital organs. This proposed clinical trial will examine the feasibility of restrictive compared with a liberal rate of fluid removal in order to develop effective treatments for fluid overload and to improve the health of critically ill patients.
The purpose of study is to verify the predictability of TV Chalange test during laparoscopic abdominal surgery for early postoperative AKI and intra-operative hypotension. .
Acute kidney injury (AKI) has been traditionally defined as an abrupt loss of kidney function leading to a rapid decline in the glomerular filtration rate (GFR), accumulation of waste products such as blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine, and dysregulation of extracellular volume and electrolyte homeostasis . Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a very common condition, especially among hospitalized patients. this work aims to study the demographics, etiology, clinical characteristics, and outcome of acute kidney injury in children in Sohag University Hospital - Pediatrics Department.
A phase 1 study investigating the tolerability and pharmacokinetics of caffeine citrate in neonates with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy receiving therapeutic hypothermia. This study is an essential first step to develop caffeine as a kidney protective medication in this in this vulnerable group of newborns.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether patients with acute kidney injury requiring renal replacement therapy have a higher incidence of muscle wasting than controls and whether the course of recovery is longer compared to controls.
Surgical treatment of hip fracture may be complicated by acute kidney injury. The aim of this study is to investigate whether the investigators can find a better biomarker than creatinine to recognize this problem at an earlier stage.
The use of contrast media (CM) poses a risk of post-contrast acute kidney injury (PC-AKI), especially among patients chronic kidney disease (CKD). International guidelines recommend intravenous (IV) hydration with isotonic 0.9% NaCl for three-four hours pre-contrast and four-six hours post-contrast. Recent studies have proven that oral hydration or no hydration is non-inferior to IV hydration in patients with mild to moderate CKD (eGFR 30-60 mL/min/1.73 m2). However, no randomized controlled trials have evaluated alternative hydration methods against the guideline-recommended hydration protocol for the prevention of PC-AKI in high-risk patients with severe CKD (eGFR < 30 mL/min/1.73 m2). Thus, the main focus of this trial is to evaluate IV hydration vs. oral hydration for their efficacy to prevent of PC-AKI in patients with severe CKD, who are scheduled for an elective contrast-enhanced CT-scan (CECT) with IV contrast-administration. Our research hypotheses consist of the following: 1. Oral hydration with bottled tap water is non-inferior to IV-hydration with isotonic 0.9% NaCl as renal prophylaxis to prevent PC-AKI in patients with severe CKD referred for an elective IV CECT. 2. NGAL and cfDNA are early and precise plasma and urinary biomarkers of PC-AKI with excellent diagnostic and prognostic accuracy for PC-AKI, dialysis, renal adverse events, hospitalization, progression in CKD-symptoms, and all-cause mortality.
The prediction and early detection of acute renal failure associated with cardiac surgery (ARF-CS) are desirable in order to try to reduce its magnitude. Indeed, its incidence is high (29 to 36%, reaching up to 81% in some series, depending on the vulnerability of the target population) and its consequences are often serious: prolongation of the length of stay in the intensive care unit and in hospital, death, and evolution towards chronic renal failure, possibly end-stage (justifying long-term extra-renal purification and/or renal transplantation). The challenge is all the more crucial given the high volume of cardiac surgery. In this context, the objective of identifying early on patients at high risk of developing AKI-CC - and therefore eligible for "nephroprotective" measures has generated, in the last decade, a strong interrest around preoperative scores and biomarkers. Thus, more than ten models predicting AKI-CC have been developed and more than 150 candidate biomarkers have been identified since 2004. This insterest is not waning. The DETECT-AKI project aims to evaluate, in a large population (N=400 patients) with varied patient profiles, not only the performance of the most innovative and promising preoperative scores and biomarkers described in the literature, but also the combination of biomarkers with relevant perioperative clinical and biological data in the framework of a clinico-biological score for the early identification of AKI-CC
