To evaluate the percentage of subjects with AKI within 7 days following on-pump cardiac surgery defined by the KDIGO (Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes) criteria: Increase in baseline (pre-surgery) serum creatinine (SCr) by ≥26.5 μmol/L (≥0.3 mg/dL) within 7 days; OR Increase in baseline SCr to ≥1.5 times baseline, which …
Prismocitrate 18 is a continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) solution to be used as a renal replacement solution and as an anticoagulant to prevent blood clotting in the extracorporeal circuit. The delivery of CRRT therapy is provided by the PrisMax System which includes regional citrate anticoagulation (RCA) software to facilitate …
Cardiac surgery and cardiopulmonary bypass can lead to systemic organ failure trough excess inflammation and endothelial injury. The angiopoietin family represented by angiopoietin 1 and 2 can reflect endothelial injury by a decrease in angiopoietin 1 and an increase in angiopoietin 2. The investigators hypothesized that angiopoietin dysregulation could reflect …
Introduction Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host immune response to infection, and it is a common critical condition in the ICU. Early and timely fluid resuscitation is the cornerstone of sepsis treatment. However, excessive fluid loading can lead to interstitial edema and iatrogenic organ damage, …
Pressure injury (PI) is characterized as damage to the skin and/or underlying tissues resulting from sustained pressure or a combination of pressure and shear forces between the patient and the support surface. Prolonged pressure is a well-established risk factor in the development of PIs. Frequent repositioning and routine patient care …
There is currently no standard treatment to prevent burn depth conversion in partial-thickness burns. Conversion into deeper wounds is associated with higher complications and morbidity. The most common theory attributes this depth conversion to the prolonged inflammatory response that occurs after burn injury. Therefore, the investigators propose testing the safety …
This project will identify the efficacy of whole body skin wetting aimed to attenuate excessive elevations in internal body temperatures during physical activity in well-healed burn survivors. The investigators will conduct a randomized crossover design study. Non-burned control subjects, subjects who experienced burns covering \~20% to 40% of their body …
This project will identify the efficacy of cooling modalities aimed to attenuate excessive elevations in skin and internal body temperatures, and associated indices of cardiovascular stress, during physical activity in well-healed burn survivors. The investigators will conduct a randomized crossover design study. Non-burned control subjects and subjects who experienced burns …
The use of imaging is increasing in clinical practice, either for diagnosis or intervention. In these imaging processes, contrast medium (CM) is widely used. However, CM administration can induce contrast-induced nephropathy (CI-AKI). CI-AKI is the third most common cause of renal insufficiency, and its incidence varies from 2% to 50% …
Acetaminophen (APAP) is the most commonly used NSAIDS in clinic, and it is also a common cause of drug-induced liver injury (DILI). In 2012, the proportion of DILI caused by APAP in the United States was 51%, while in Asia, it was only 7.10%. Previously, a small cohort study in …
