View clinical trials related to Renal Insufficiency.
Filter by:The goal of this project to better understand the immune-modulatory effects of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) in neonatal and pediatric patients, particularly those receiving extracorporeal life support (ECLS). Little is known about the effects of CRRT in this particular population and improved knowledge will be useful clinically and may lead to novel therapeutic approaches and improved outcomes for these critically ill patients.
Pre-market, single-arm, prospective, open-label, multi-center clinical trial aimed at assessing the safety and the performance of the Medyria TrackCath system in patients undergoing endovascular intervention.
Monocentric, randomised, controlled and open study. Subjects will be included prospectively and consecutively and randomly assigned into two groups. Intervention group A will benefit a medication adherence support program during 12 months while intervention group B during 6 months only. Adherence will be monitored using an Electronic Monitoring system (EM, named MEMS®; Aardex Ltd.) during 24 months. At each pharmacy visit, the pharmacist will conduct a semi-structured interview in 15 minutes based on Fisher's sociocognitive model with the patients. A summary of the interview and the adherence graph will be send to the patient' health professionals.
Despite many advances in our understanding of the natural history and progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and cardio vascular disease (CVD) in the parent CRIC study over the past 15 years, important questions about key risk factors for these diseases remain unanswered in the AI population. To address this burden of CKD in AI communities Investigators formed a consortium of investigators with extensive experience in conducting research of chronic diseases including diabetes, cardiovascular and kidney disease in AIs of Southwestern US. The proposed CRIC ancillary cohort study of 500 AIs (AI-CRIC) will rapidly improve our understanding of both potential risk factors for CKD progression, as well as the scope of this disease among AIs. This study leverages the current CRIC study and incorporates the planned activities of the next phase of the study - "CRIC 2018" - by implementing contemporary CRIC protocols for kidney and cardiovascular measurement and outcomes.
Heart transplantation (TC) is the standard treatment for terminal heart failure. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a common complication responsible for increased mortality and morbidity. The main risk factors for progression to CKD are advanced age, pre-transplantation CKD, degradation of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in the first year post-transplantation, and nephrotoxicity of calcineurin inhibitors (CNI). Indeed, these molecules (cyclosporin and tacrolimus), the cornerstone of immunosuppressive treatment, have nephrotoxic effects in the short term (by a hemodynamic effect) and in the long term (by a pro-fibrosin effect). In renal transplantation (TR), belatacept, a costimulation-inhibiting molecule, used de novo, without CNI, with induction by anti-receptor antibody of Interleukines 2, preserves kidney function. Despite this great advantage, its development is still hampered by a higher number of rejections compared to the CNI group in this originator study. Based on the experience gained in TR, which has since validated its use, the hypothesis is that in heart transplantation, belatacept (Nulojix) combined with minimization of CNI (with induction by antilymphocyte serum), could significantly improve glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in patients at risk of CKD (by removing them from dialysis and possible kidney transplantation) without increasing the risk of rejection.
This is a single-center evaluation of Aldafermin (NGM282) in an open-label, single-dose and parallel group study in participants with Impaired Renal Function.
Evaluation of the pharmacokinetics (PK) of TBPM-PI-HBr in subjects with normal renal function, subjects with various degrees of renal insufficiency, and subjects with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) receiving hemodialysis (HD) therapy.
This is two stage design, open-label, multi-center, non-randomized trial evaluating the PK of a single, subcutaneous dose of 10 mg glepaglutide in subjects with varying degrees of renal function. The renal function will be calculated by the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) according to the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) equation.
The aim of this study to test efficacy of adding dexmedetomidine to articaine on sensory, motor and duration of analgesia during hemodialysis fistula creation under ultrasound guided supraclavicular block
In this observational study, data from patients treated with the antibiotic ceftobiprole in the past will be collected. The sponsor of the study is Correvio International Sárl, based in Switzerland. Correvio has committed to the health authorities to obtain further information on possible side effects especially in patients suffering from impaired liver or renal function or immune system deficiency and compare these effects to the ones observed in patients without these health problems. Patient data are collected from historic patient charts, patients will not be treated for the purpose of this data collection. All efforts are being made to capture the data of all patients who meet the inclusion criteria and have received at least one dose of ceftobiprole since this drug was first prescribed at the site.
