Acute normovolemic hemodilution (ANH) is performed as a blood conservation technique during surgical procedures with high risk for significant blood loss. It is done by taking out some of the patients blood before surgery actually begins and storing this blood inside of the operating room and giving it back to …
In this exploratory study we explore the use of Shear Wave Elastography to differentiate between Acute Kidney Injury after vascular surgery and among the healthy population.
Acute kidney disease (AKD) happens between 7 and 90 days after an initial kidney injury (AKI). This period is crucial because it can determine whether the condition worsens into chronic kidney disease (CKD). Despite knowing this, there is no proven treatment to improve outcomes for people with AKD. Recent studies …
An estimated 10-15% of critically ill patients with acute kidney failure in the intensive care unit receive acute dialysis therapy. The majority of these patients initially receive a continuous form of dialysis therapy call continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). Prior studies have suggested that higher CRRT dose-intensity improved health outcomes …
To determine the clinical utility of serum cystatin C in early detection of acute kidney injury (AKI).
The main goal of this clinical trial is to learn if evaluation by ultrasound of venous congestion of liver and kidneys can guide treatment and prevent and treat acute kidney injury post cardiac surgery (CSA-AKI). Participants will: Be evaluated by liver and kidney veins ultrasound (treatment group) or a placebo …
The aim of this study is to evaluate the safety of ultra-low contrast coronary angiography in patients with pre-existing acute kidney injury.
The central hypothesis of this research study is that perioperative administration of the proton pump inhibitor (PPI) pantoprazole could reduce the development of acute kidney injury (AKI) following cardiac surgery by activation molecular pathways for kidney protection. The investigators propose a single-center, randomized, controlled, single-blinded trial to determine whether perioperative …
Method: Randomized Controlled Trial Study Duration: 3 Years Study Centre(s) University of Calgary and University of Alberta Objectives: To fill care gaps by implementing strategies to reduce length of hospital stay, readmission rates, and improve long-term outcomes after Acute Kidney Injury (AKI). Number of Participants: Three Hundred and fifty four …
The goal of this observational study is to know if, in patients with acute kidney injury, naive for renal injurie, admitted to different ICUs, the change in plasma concentration of c-cistatin, between initiation and discontinuation of CRRT, is a predictive finding to optimize the withdrawal time of renal support
