Filter by:Prolonged periods of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) cause high levels of plasma free haemoglobin(Hb) and are associated with increased morbidity. We hypothesized that repletion of nitric oxide (NO) during and after the surgical procedure on CPB may protect against endothelium dysfunction and organ failure caused by plasma-Hb induced NO scavenging.
A central goal of this data repository is to collect data from a large population of subjects with a variety of renal disease states. Cohorts will include subjects with diabetes, inflammatory/autoimmune and transplant related renal conditions. Additionally, the repository will have the capacity to store biospecimens and electronic data in control subjects without established renal disease. This initiative will provide an opportunity to compare data from various disease states and controls with the objective of determining clinical and biological factors that predict disease progression, response to therapy and identify discriminating noninvasive clinical and biological features that predict renal biopsy findings.
To investigate the Pharmacokinetics (PK) of oral administered Lacosamide in renal impaired subjects and healthy subjects.
Patients with renal impairment are the target population for PF-04634817. The clearance mechanism of this drug means that exposure may be increased in subjects with renal impairment. This study will investigate the effect of the drug in subjects with varying degrees of renal impairment. Pharmacokinetics, safety and toleration will be assessed.
The general objective of this open, pilot study is to characterize biological parameters related to acute kidney injury among patients undergoing a programmed coronarography with injection of contrast material. The study focuses on two main factors that may influence acute kidney injury: (1) sodium chloride hydration strategy versus sodium bicarbonate hydration strategy and (2) presence of oral L-carnitine treatment versus absence of oral L-carnitine treatment. We will also test for a potential interaction between these two factors.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether sugammadex reverses a profound neuromuscular blockade induced by rocuronium in patients with end-stage renal disease just as effectively and safely as it does in patients with normal renal function.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the signs of nephronic reduction in preterm infants who have presented neonatal acute renal failure. The investigators hypothesize that signs of nephronic reduction would appear earlier in former preterm with neonatal acute renal failure than in control preterm infants.
This study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Huaren Peritoneal Dialysate and Baxter Peritoneal Dialysate, investigate the proper dialysis dose for Chinese CAPD patients.
Multi-center, non-randomized, open-label, single-dose, parallel group study to determine the effect of impaired renal function on the PK of deferiprone and its 3-O-glucuronide metabolite following a single oral dose of 33mg/kg Ferriprox®.
Background: Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is under-recognized and under-treated in primary care offices and primary care physicians are generally not familiar with treatment guidelines. Even when diagnosed properly, as a chronic condition CKD is frequently associated with co-morbidities that make effective treatment difficult due to complexity of care. Availability of Clinical Decision Support (CDS) for CKD may help promote effective, evidence-based care, but evidence suggests that CDS alone may not be sufficient for quality improvement and other interventions such as CDS plus practice facilitation may be needed. Purpose: The project aims to: 1) assess the viability of CDS in implementing evidence-based guidelines for Primary Care Practices (PCPs) and 2) to develop evidence-based practice guidelines that PCPs may use to enhance the care they provide to a difficult to manage segment of the healthcare population. Methods: This is a randomized controlled trial of point-of-care CDS plus full TRANSLATE model of practice change, versus CDS alone. The study aims to analyze differences in promoting evidence-based care in primary care practices. Thirty-six practices will be recruited for this study. Patient inclusion criteria: adult patients with estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) of <60 and >15ml/min/1.73m2 confirmed with repeat testing over three or more months. A process evaluation will be conducted between the CDS practices with facilitation and the CDS only practices to assess clinical outcomes of CKD progression and all-cause mortality. Lastly, a cost-effective analysis will compare the cost-to-benefit ratio of CDS alone to that of CDS plus TRANSLATE (i.e. practice facilitation) in relation to cost per quality adjusted years of life. This study is funded by NIH NIDDK under R01 mechanism starting on 07/01/2011 and ending on 06/30/2016.
