Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study was to quantify overall blood flow and renal cortical perfusion in patients with septic acute kidney injury (AKI) using ultrasound (US) Doppler and contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS).


Clinical Trial Description

Kidney ultrasound is the most widely used imaging modality in initial AKI workup as it is widely available and free of complications. It is clinically feasible to use US Doppler and contrast-enhanced US (CEUS) to detect macroscopic and microscopic changes in renal blood flow, and also cardiac output alterations.The aim was to analyze changes in US Doppler and CEUS quantitative parameters in patients with septic AKI to explore perfusion within the renal parenchyma, and also measure global renal blood flow and cardiac output. ;
