Coronavirus disease 2019 is a novel viral disease caused by the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 virus. The original cases occurred in Wuhan, China, in December 2019 and rapidly spread to other areas worldwide, constituting a pandemic with unimaginable health and economic consequences. the World Health Organization elevated the disease to the category of a pandemic on March 11, 2020. In children, the reported mortality rates were far below 1%, while in people above the age of 70 years it was above 5% or higher. So, in this retrospective study, the investigators describe the clinical features and outcomes of children with chronic kidney diseases who were diagnosed with Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 infection at pediatric centers in Doha from 1st March 2020 till January 20th, 2022. This review looks into the literature on pediatric patients with chronic kidney diseases to verify whether they were more prone to developing more severe symptoms when diagnosed with Coronavirus disease 2019 compared to children without chronic kidney diseases and adults with chronic kidney diseases, and the Prevalence of COVID-19 infection between patients with chronic kidney diseases, and the role of COVID-19 infection in increasing the relapses and deterioration of chronic kidney diseases.
There is no specific therapy for acute kidney injury. It is presumed that supportive measures improve the care and outcome of patients with acute kidney injury. To investigate whether an implementation of a supportive extended care "bundle" in high-risk patients for persistent acute kidney injury (AKI) can reduce the occurrence of persistent surgical AKI. In order to investigate whether the extended KDIGO bundle can prevent persistent AKI in patients with high chemokine ligand 14 (CCL14) as well as in patients with low CCL14, patients will be randomized with stratification by the CCL-value.
The patients discharged from intensive care units (ICU) have a high incidence of cardiovascular events and mortality rate during the year following ICU discharge. Among patients admitted to the ICU, patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) display high risk of such events. The investigators furthermore demonstrated that AKI could induce remote cardio-vascular injury and fibrosis, which may be involved in the poor prognosis of AKI. Strategies that may prevent the cardiovascular consequences of AKI in most severe patients (i.e. post-AKI ICU survivors) may therefore improve long term outcomes. AKI has been associated with activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS). Activation of the RAAS has been further associated with long-term health consequences especially with cardiovascular damages. Potential protective effects of RAASi following acute injury have been reported in observational studies. With this randomized controlled trial, the investigators aim at investigating the impact of treatment with RAAS inhibitors after AKI on cardiovascular and kidney outcomes.
This VIDAS® NEPHROCLEAR™ CCL14 (VIDAS® NCL™ CCL14) Sample Stability clinical trial is a multicenter, prospective, and qualitative study. The main study objective is to determine sample stability conditions for the VIDAS® NEPHROCLEAR™ CCL14 Test. This test is intended to be used in conjunction with clinical evaluation in ICU patients with moderate to severe (stage 2 or 3) acute kidney injury (AKI) as an aid in the risk assessment for developing persistent severe AKI (stage 3 AKI lasting ≥ 72 hours) within 48 hours of patient assessment. The VIDAS® NEPHROCLEAR™ CCL14 Test is intended to be used in patients 21 years of age or older.
This prospective cohort study aim to investigate the ability of multiple types of assessments including 1) the modified Venous Excess Ultrasound (VExUS) assessment, 2) non-invasive estimation of absolute blood volume (ABV), and 3) change in carotid Doppler at the start of IKRT to predict IDHE in acutely ill hospitalized patients. The secondary aim will be to determine whether each modality improves the prediction of IHDE compared to the evaluation of the attending physician and whether they also predict cerebral hypoxia during IKRT measured by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). Finally, detailed hemodynamic data including relative blood volume monitoring, tissue oximetry, and other parameters will be collected continuously during IKRT sessions enabling exploratory analyses aimed at identifying hemodynamic phenotypes related to IDHE during IKRT.
Developing new tools for early detection of AKI in open-heart surgeries.
This study will determine the renoprotective effect of febuxostat in prevention of contrast induced acute kidney injury in chronic kidney disease patients Stage 3 undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.
Renal replacement therapy is a life-saving treatment for patients who have sudden and severe kidney failure. However, some of these patients blood pressure who receive this treatment could become unstable, thus resulting in more injuries to their kidneys and may limit the ability of kidney recovery. In order to mitigate the instability in blood pressure, the mitochondrial functions should be studied. Mitochondria are organelles within our bodies' cells that serve as the main source of energy for cell function. Kidney cells have many of these organelles and when they are damaged, it could contribute to kidney disease. At this time, it is not known whether boosting mitochondria health and function in humans could reduce the harm of instability in blood pressure. This research study is being done to try to explore the impact of HIRRT on mitochondria health and kidney recovery by assessing critically ill patients with AKI who are undergoing SLED treatment in ICU at The Ottawa Hospital.
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the most common complication after restricted fluid therapy for major surgery. The aim of this study is to evaluate the incidence of AKI as defined by Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria in living liver donor hepatectomy in which applied intraoperative protocolized fluid restriction targeting a low central venous pressure (CVP) level and high pulse pressure variation (PPV) / systolic pressure variation (SPV).
