Filter by:Hemodynamic management of critically ill patients has long been focused on the arterial side of the vasculature by assessing adequate perfusion pressure. However, the venous pressure is also of critical importance. Venous congestion can occur in patients with right ventricular failure, pulmonary hypertension or fluid overload. Fluid overload has harmful effects to end organs causing acute kidney injury (AKI), lung edema, multiorgan dysfunction and death. Vice versa, AKI can aggravate fluid retention and inflammation. The measurement of venous pressure usually relies on central venous pressure (CVP) and inferior vena cava diameter (IVC). However, CVP measurement has been associated with measurement errors and has low accuracy in predicting fluid responsiveness. Moreover, IVC collapsibility or distensibility is a static parameter and is associated with subjective variability. Multiorgan Point-of-Care ultrasound (POCUS) can enhance the management of AKI by enabling the evaluation of renal structural abnormalities and hemodynamic status . POCUS allows the clinician to assess intravascular and pulmonary fluid overload. It has been shown that POCUS is a good parameter to predict global fluid status of the patient . Venous Excess Ultrasound (VEXUS) consists of the evaluation of IVC, hepatic vein, portal vein and intrarenal vein flow pattern. Previous studies showed significant correlation between VExUS score with RRT-free days and guide fluid management in critically ill patients with AKI . VExUS is useful in predicting patients at risk to develop AKI post cardiac surgery . Adding modified lung ultrasound score to the VExUS protocol could help clinician to adjust fluid administration and achieve proper fluid balance during continuous kidney replacement therapy (CKRT). However, the role of using combined VExUS and lung ultrasound in the assessment and guidance of fluid management during CKRT is unknown.
The main aim of this study is to assess the safety profile of maribavir when treating refractory cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection after transplantation in adults with kidneys that are no longer functioning on their own (also called end-stage renal disease or ESRD) or have severe chronic kidney disease requiring artificial filtering of the kidney (dialysis) or the blood (hemodialysis). In this study, already existing data will be collected from the participant's medical records. The study will only review data collected as part of the normal clinical routine and will not impact the standard medical care and treatment of participants.
Powerful new drugs that can prevent or delay end stage kidney disease (ESKD) - so called sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) - are now available for patients with type 2 diabetes. Whether these drugs have similar effects in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) remains unknown because of the few studies in this population, due to concerns about the increase in risk of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA, a serious, potentially fatal acute complication of diabetes due to the accumulation of substances called ketone bodies) observed with SGLT2i therapy in T1D. One of the few T1D studies conducted to date showed that implementing an enhanced DKA prevention plan can reduce the risk of DKA associated with the SGLT2i sotagliflozin (SOTA) to very low levels. In the present study, a similar DKA prevention program will be used to carry-out a 3-year trial to test the kidney benefit of SOTA in 150 persons with T1D and moderate to advanced DKD. After a 2-month period, during which diabetes care will be standardized and education on monitoring and minimizing DKA implemented, eligible study subjects will be randomly assigned (50/50) to take one tablet of SOTA (200 mg) or a similarly looking inactive tablet (placebo) every day for 3 years followed by 2-months without treatment. Neither the participants nor the study staff will know whether a person was assigned to taking SOTA or the inactive tablet. Kidney function at the end of the study will be compared between the two treatment groups to see whether SOTA prevented kidney function loss in those treated with this drug as compared to those who took the inactive tablet. The DKA prevention program will include participant education, close follow-up with study staff, continuous glucose monitoring, and systematic ketone body self-monitoring with a meter provided by the study. If successful, this study will provide efficacy and safety data that could be used to seek FDA approval of SOTA for the prevention of kidney function decline in patients with T1D and DKD.
This is an observational study without intervention. It is planned to include 500 patients with AMI from October 2023 to July 2026.The study was divided into three parts. Part I: To investigate the effect of CHIP on renal insufficiency in AMI patients. Part two: To investigate the effect of CHIP on cardiovascular outcomes in patients with AMI complicated with CKD stage II-IV nephropathy. Part three: To investigate the effects of CHIP on cardiovascular and renal outcomes in AMI patients with ESRD. Study endpoint: Primary end points: all-cause death, cardiac death, and nonfatal myocardial infarction. Secondary endpoints: angina pectoris requiring hospitalization, nonfatal stroke, and nonfatal heart failure.
The goal of this study is to assess the efficacy of induction treatment with daratumumab-hyaluronidase (dara SC) with cyclophosphamide, bortezomib, and dexamethasone (Dara-CyBorD) for four cycles in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma who have new onset renal failure. This study will also investigate the difference responses in African American (AA) patients versus non-African American patients. The primary questions this study aims to answer are: 1. To evaluate the very good partial response rate (VGPR) after 4 cycles of Dara-CyBord. 2. To evaluate the renal response rate (RRR) after 4 cycles of Dara-CyBord.
The study is being conducted to evaluate and compare the pharmacokinetics of HRS-7535 tablets in subjects with moderate renal insufficiency and healthy subjects.
The goal of this RCT is to address the feasibility of conducting a 12-week virtual pre-habilitation intervention, which includes exercise and education, in kidney transplant candidates. The intervention also includes a 5-month maintenance phase with independent home exercises (maximum of 8 months of intervention/ended early if the participant undergoes a kidney transplant). The main questions it aims to answer are: - estimate the proportion of screened patients who meet eligibility criteria - estimate the proportion of eligible patients who consent to randomization - estimate the proportion of patients who adhere to the interventions - estimate follow-up completion rates - inform the calculation of sample size requirements for a full-scale RCT - assess the acceptability of the intervention by the participants. Participants in the control group will receive usual outpatient care.
A prospective, randomised, open-labelled, multi-center study. The aim of the Steno 1 study is to test multifactorial intervention in individuals with type 1 diabetes at high risk of CVD with ambitious treatment targets. We will include 2000 participants. Follow-up is 5 years.
This is a prospective observational study in people treated with peritoneal dialysis for kidney failure to investigate whether estimated intraperitoneal pressure (eIPP) is correlated with non-infectious PD-related complications in end-stage renal failure patients. It looks to understand how both peritoneal dialysis complications (including fluid leaks and hernias) along with gastrointestinal symptoms are associated with eIPP in people treated with PD.
This is a multicenter, non-randomized, open-label, parallel-controlled study. The main objective is to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of HRS-1780 in subjects with mild and moderate renal impairment versus healthy subjects, and to provide a basis for dose selection of HRS-1780 in patients with chronic kidney disease.
