Filter by:Cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI) is a major complication which may result in adverse impact on short- and long-term mortality. The researcher here developed several prediction models based on machine learning technique to allow early identification of patients who at the high risk of unfavorable kidney outcomes. The retrospective study comprised 2108 consecutive patients who underwent cardiac surgery from January 2017 to December 2020.
The investigators will evaluate the impact of dialysis modality (intermittent hemodialysis or continuous renal replacement therapy) in coagulation and platelet function in critically ill patients
Among patients with SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia, approximately 20% have an acute kidney injury (AKI) and 5% require renal replacement therapy. Occurrence of AKI in patients with COVID-19 is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Early detection of patients at risk of AKI would allow to prevent onset or worsening of AKI. The aim of this study is to determine if urine biomarkers of renal tubular damage such as TIMP-2 and IGFBP7 could early identify patients with SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia at risk of developing AKI.
It is estimated that there are currently over 3 million patients receiving dialysis treatment worldwide. With effective pre-dialysis counselling, a majority of patients choose the home-based therapy peritoneal dialysis (PD) but only approximately 11% of prevalent dialysis patients use this modality. Connection-assist devices can overcome the challenges posed by decreased manual dexterity and/or visual acuity, and can allow more patients to be treated with home-based therapies. As part of the CE marking authorization, a connection device has been evaluated for safety and ease of use in a usability study.
This observational study reports meropenem and piperacillin plasma concentrations in patients treated with either antibiotic and simultaneous continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT).
The primary objectives of the BiPhox-Trial are to demonstrate, that the use of Biphozyl® as a replacement fluid in adult critically ill acute kidney injury (AKI) patients, results in a lower rate of pH excursions and of bicarbonate (HCO3-) excursions compared to the use of Phoxilium® during the studied continuous veno-venous hemofiltration (CVVH) interval with regional citrate anticoagulation (RCA). The secondary objectives of the BiPhox-Trial are to evaluate the time to pH level normalization and the HCO3- substitution rates after initiation of CVVH treatment. Further, to demonstrate that the use of Biphozyl® as a replacement fluid in adult critically ill AKI patients, results in a more stable acid-base-status as well as improved respiratory situation due to lower intracorporeal HCO3- and carbon dioxide levels compared to the use of Phoxilium® during the studied CVVH interval with RCA.
Prospective observational study of all consecutive cardio-vascular surgical patients treated with post-dilution hemofiltration with regional citrate anticoagulation as first-choice anticoagulation method. The filter life-span was assessed in the context of postoperative cardiac surgical antithrombotic prophylaxis. Reasons for termination of hemofiltration sessions were assessed. The second aim of this study was to assess the influence ACD-A based anticoagulation protocol on acid-base and ion homeostasis in cardiac surgical patients with acute renal failure.
Objective: The primary aim of this 60 patient feasibility trial is to determine if, for critically ill patients treated with SLED for AKI, randomization to receive albumin (25%) boluses versus normal saline placebo boluses is feasible, with respect to the recruitment rate, blinding and adherence to the protocol.
Data show that episodes of bleeding may often be observed in critically ill patients with dialysis-dependent acute renal failure (ARF) on renal replacement therapy (RRT). From a clinical perspective, patients with dialysis-dependent ARF and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) may be considered a high risk population in regard to e.g. development of gastrointestinal (GI-) bleeding. In the current prospective subanalysis "SIREN" of the randomized placebo-controlled clinical trial "SUP-ICU" (NCT02467621), the investigators seek to elucidate whether the subpopulation of critically ill patients with acute kidney injury requiring renal replacement therapy (RRT) benefit from prophylactic treatment with a proton-pump-inhibitor such as pantoprazole.
The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of a membrane gas exchange device in the venovenous circulation of a continuous renal replacement therapy for the purpose of CO2 elimination and pH compensation. Thus, the primary endpoint is the modification of the PaCO2 and/or the ventilator settings (tidal volume VT and plateau pressure Pplat).
