Optimizing Pulsatility During Cardiopulmonary Bypass
Cardiopulmonary bypass during cardiac surgery provides blood flow to the body during surgery but has adverse effects on different organs. Blood flow during cardiopulmonary bypass may be pulsatile or non-pulsatile, which may impact normal organ function after surgery. The study will collect data on the type of cardiopulmonary bypass used …
Kidney Sodium Functional Imaging
The corticomedullary gradient is largely responsible for developing the gradients that are needed to concentrate urine (more solutes and less water). The ability of the kidneys to produce concentrated urine is a major determinant of the ability to survive the warm weather. When temperatures are high, we lose water through …
Biomarkers of AKI in Patients Receiving Daratumumab
The goal of this prospective observational study is to understand changes in urinary and blood biomarkers associated with acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients newly diagnosed with multiple myeloma and being treated with Daratumumab SC. The aims of the study are: To measure changes in plasma and urinary biomarkers of …
Novel Treatments in Improving Renal Outcomes in Light Chain Cast Nephropathy
Objective 1: To test whether treatment with plasma exchange improves renal recovery in patients with light chain cast nephropathy Objective 2: To compare renal outcomes among patients treated with plasma exchange versus daratumumab-based regimens versus non-daratumumab based-regimens.
The Predictive Value of Doppler Based Renal Ultrasound and Urinary Oxygen Tension for Prediction of Acute Kidney Injury After Open Heart Surgery
This study aims to investigate the predictive value of Doppler-based renal ultrasound and urinary oxygen tension in the development of acute kidney injury after cardiac surgery.
Novel Biomarkers and Postoperative Kidney Injury in Radical Nephrectomy
The incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) after radical nephrectomy exceeds 40%. Currently, the KDIGO criteria are the recognized diagnostic standard for AKI. These criteria primarily use serum creatinine and urine output as key indicators, but both parameters have certain limitations, such as delayed response, insensitivity, and inaccuracy. This study …
Sensor-based Congestion ALert for Events in Peritoneal Dialysis (SCALE-PD)
To explore the use of the Bodyport Cardiac Scale in predicting worsening of events due to fluid overload in patients with kidney disease on peritoneal dialysis.
Accuracy of Venous Excess Ultrasound Score at Hospital Admission to Predict Acute Kidney Injury
To evaluate diagnostic accuracy of venous excess ultrasound score to predict acute kidney injury
Preoperative Hemoglobin and Acute Kidney Injury in Emergency Surgery
Optimization of hemoglobin levels for organ perfusion is essential, especially in critically ill patients. Although anemia is associated with severe organ failure, especially in coronary artery disease, the effects of blood transfusion or various interventions to increase hemoglobin levels on outcomes continue to be debated. The effects of hemoglobin levels …
miRNA in Septic Acute Kidney Injury
Acute kidney injury is a common and serious complication of sepsis and septic shock, which may be associated with a worse outcome of the patient's condition. The exact pathophysiological mechanism of septic acute kidney injury remains a challenge. One of the possible causes appears to be endothelial dysfunction and mitochondrial …
