Filter by:This study will involve measurement of levels of a novel urinary biomarker of renal ischemia, L-FABP. The purpose of the study is to perform a clinical validation of the ability of L-FABP measurements in urine using the RENISCHEM L-FABP POC Test to predict the development of AKI within 2 days following cardiac and vascular catheterization procedures involving exposure to radiocontrast media.
We will look for the possible effect of SGLT2i as a single agent to prevent post-contrast Acute Kidney Injury in diabetic kidney disease.
Historically, innovations for acute kidney injury (AKI) and continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) have centered around an adult population. However, research has shown that over 10% of pediatric patients develop severe AKI within the first week in an intensive care unit (ICU). When a pediatric patient requires renal replacement therapy for AKI in the ICU, CRRT is usually the modality of choice. The HF20™ is indicated for supporting patients weighing 8 to 20 kilograms, addressing a critical clinical need for critically ill children who require CRRT. Current US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved CRRT filters are designed for patients weighing more than 20 kg or less than 10 kg, leaving a gap in appropriately designed filters for pediatric patients. A previous trial in the US showed that the HF20™ is safe and effective, however the membrane composition of the HF20™ used in that trial is different than what is currently manufacturer and available. Baxter Healthcare Corporation has received an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for the currently available HF20™ to be used in the era of the COVID-19 pandemic, however participants do not need to be infected with the SAR-CoV-2 virus in order to be treated. The EUA for the HF20™ allows for treatment for any children weighing between 8 and 20 kilograms in need of CRRT. This registry will collect clinical data related to the safety and efficacy of the HF20™ filter for CRRT in pediatric patients weighing 8 to 20 kilograms at participating institutions, however participation in this registry is not a requirement in order to be treated with the HF20™ filter.
1. Title: Effects of Sodium Bicarbonate Ringer's Injection and Sodium Lactated Ringer's Injection on postoperative acute kidney injury in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery: a randomized, controlled, open-label clinical study 2. Objective: To evaluate the effect of BRS and LRS infusion on acute renal injury in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery 3. Primary outcome: Incidence of AKI at 28 days postoperative (defined as acute kidney injury, according to Kidgo 2012 definition and classification). 4. Study Design: Randomized, controlled, open-label clinical study.
This is a monocentre randomized pilot study. All patients received two consecutive RRT: CVVHD with MCO filter (Ultraflux® EMiC®2) and post-Continuous Veno-Venous Hemodiafiltration (CVVHDF) with HFF(AV1000S®) in a controlled randomized (1:1) blinded manner. Crossover randomized to sequence (A+B or B+A) for 48 h total without washout.
The purpose of the clinical study is to assess safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of RMC-035 for the prevention and treatment of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients undergoing cardiac surgery.
A study to evaluate the prevalence of Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) in patients with Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA) and sepsis using data collected prospectively to a patient registry. The primary objective is to compare the prevalence of AKI in sepsis and DKA in different age groups in children and investigate the difference in the prevalence of hyperchloremia in the two groups.Secondary objectives are Compare the prevalence of AKI in sepsis and DKA in different age groups in children and investigate the difference in the prevalence of hyperchloremia in the two groups.
This is a prospective multi-center observational study which purpose is to evaluate the ability of blood-based inflammatory markers to risk-stratify patients hospitalized for Covid-19. Blood-based biomarkers examined include: soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR), C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin, D-dimer, ferritin, lactate dehydrogenase and interleukin-6.
An interventional clinical trial using oral nicotinamide riboside (NR) in hospitalized patients with COVID-19 infection and acute kidney injury to determine the effect of NR on whole blood nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) levels and to evaluate safety of the use of NR.
Left heart catheterization and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has become a useful tool in interventional cardiology, in which iodinated contrast media is used. Although the use of iodinated contrast media (CM) is considered to be safe in patients with normal renal function, it is risky in patients with known chronic renal insufficiency (CKD) and diabetes mellitus. Contrast induced nephropathy (CIN) remains one of the most leading causes of in hospital acute kidney injury (AKI), affecting morbidity and mortality. There are various mechanisms through which CM develop their nephrotoxic effects, including renal vasoconstriction and medullary hypoxia, tubular cell toxicity and reactive oxygen species formation. Inhibitors of type 2 sodium- glucose co-transporter (SGLT2i) is a relatively recent addition to the array of anti-diabetic agents, becoming part of everyday clinical practice. However, although SGLT2i were first used solely as antidiabetics because of their glycosuric effect, further research demonstrated that these drugs may independently reduce cardiovascular events, especially in patients with heart failure, a benefit that was consistent among diabetic and non-diabetic patients. Moreover, pleiotropic effects have been observed, including a reno-protective action. In addition to the effects mediated by intrarenal hemodynamic changes, SGLT2-i also have direct anti-inflammatory and antifibrotic nephroprotective effects. Indeed, SGLT2-i suppress the production of reactive oxygen species, lessening glomerulosclerosis and tubulo-interstitial fibrosis. These findings suggest that the use of SGLT2i could offer benefit by reducing/ preventing the nephrotoxic effects of contrast media leading to the assumption that the use of these drugs could prevent the incidence nephropathy after cardiac catheterization and percutaneous coronary intervention.
