Filter by:The Cardiorenal Syndrome during Acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) with persistent congestion despite high dose IV diuretic therapy is associated with remarkable morbidity, which can include the need for renal dialysis or ultrafiltration, an increased length of stay, and high mortality rates. The aims and purpose of this feasibility clinical research trial are: 1. to evaluate the safety profiles associated with performing negative pressure diuresis for the treatment of hypervolemia associated with the cardiorenal syndrome during ADHF with persistent congestion despite high dose IV diuretic therapy via the investigational JuxtaFlow® System, and 2. to evaluate the effectiveness of the investigational JuxtaFlow System in treatment of hypervolemia associated with ADHF.
Diuretic therapy is the cornerstone of the management of fluid overload in heart failure. Resistance to diuretic therapy is the most common reason for treatment failure in patients affected by the combination of heart failure and kidney disease. Currently, there is no way of predicting whether heart failure patients will develop resistance to diuretic therapy and what dose of diuretic is necessary to overcome diuretic resistance. Answering these questions would allow doctors to be able to prescribe an accurate dose of diuretic therapy to prevent diuretic resistance and potential side effects of an excessive diuretic dose. With magnetic resonance imaging, it is possible to measure the kidney sodium (salt) content and observe the diuretic response in patients with heart failure and kidney disease. The investigators speculate that measuring kidney sodium content will allow to predict diuretic response in these patients. The aim of this study is to compare the kidney sodium content in patients with chronic cardiorenal syndrome with and without diuretic resistance. Secondly, in a sample of patients with diagnosed diuretic resistance,the aim will be to observe the changes in kidney sodium content induced by an additional dose of diuretic therapy and to observe whether these changes are associated with a response to diuretic therapy.
The Aortix CRS Pilot Study: An Evaluation of the Safety and Performance of the Aortix System for Intra-Aortic Mechanical Circulatory Support in Patients with Cardiorenal Syndrome
First in Human feasibility and sfafety study of the alfapump DSR system in the treatment of Heart failure subects resistant to diuretic therapy. Up to 10 subjects will be enrolled in up to 3 centres in Belgium and Georgia and will be iplanted with the alfapump DSR system. Subjects will undergo DSR titration during a 2 week hospitalisation period, and will continue titrated DSR therapy as outpatients for 4 more weeks.
Randomized, controlled, unblinded, adaptive design clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of PolyCore (Polydextrin, L-Carnitine, D-xylitol) peritoneal ultrafiltration (PUF) in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the selective cytopheretic device on the immune dysregulated state of congestive heart failure(CHF) with CRS and to assess the benefit of the device to improve cardiovascular and renal function. The study will enroll eligible patients in the ICU with acute on chronic systolic heart failure and worsening renal function due to cardiorenal syndrome while awaiting LVAD implantation. In this study patients who are eligible and agree to participate will receive treatment with the SCD. The treatment will be for 6 hours a day up to 6 days. Additionally, participants will have additional study procedures and be evaluated to determine if their kidney function improves enough to undergo LVAD implantation.
The prospective single-center study investigates the association between changes in Doppler-derived renal venous flow and cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI).
Following cardiac surgery, right ventricular function may be altered leading to increase central venous pressure and decrease in renal blood flow. The investigator's standard care includes use of diuretic to avoid interstitial fluid accumulation. The aim of the study is to assess cardiac and renal function before and after depletion by using diuretics
This is prospective cohort study with the purpose of improving our understanding of morbidity and mortality risk in patients with heart failure and chronic kidney disease.
The investigators performed a retrospective, single-center observational study, and the participants with acute fulminant myocarditis were included.Then, the investigator analyzed the risk factors of in-hospital death in these participants with acute fulminant myocarditis.
