Kidney transplantation improves the health and quality of life for those Veterans with end stage kidney disease (ESKD). While early patient and graft survival are excellent, long-term outcomes continue to be challenging. Patient death with existing kidney graft function occurs in about half of all recipients over time. This is …
Kidney biopsy play a key role for the investigation of either acute kidney injury or chronic kidney disease. Despite possible complications due to the invasive nature of the biopsy, such procedure is still essential in a number of clinical situations to improve the diagnosis specificity of kidney disease, better inform …
Acute kidney injury affects more than 30% of patients after cardiac surgery, and is associated with an excess in mortality. There is a clinical continuum between acute kidney injury (transient if \<48h, persistent if \>48h), the development of acute kidney and chronic renal failure. Each of these entities characterising renal …
This clinical trial aims to evaluate the effect of dexmedetomidine in Sepsis-Associated Acute Kidney Injury in critically ill patients by answering the following questions: What is dexmedetomidine's effect on kidney functions? What is the safety and efficacy of dexmedetomidine in Sepsis-Associated Acute Kidney Injury? The investigator will compare dexmedetomidine to …
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 …
Acute kidney injury is a well-recognized complication in critically ill patients. Up to date there is no clinically established method to reduce the incidence or the severity of acute kidney injury. Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) will be induced by three cycles of upper limb ischemia. The aim of the study …
The study compares the effectiveness and safety of TIPS implantation in patients with HRS-AKI (stage1, 2 and 3) and liver cirrhosis with standard therapy (drug therapy with terlipressin + albumin).
PrismaLung+ is a sterile, single-use medical device aimed at performing partial removal of carbon dioxide (CO2) from the patient's venous blood via diffusion through a membrane. The goal of this prospective, open label, randomized controlled study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of PrismaLung+ on extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal …
The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a modified continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) protocol in maintaining electrolyte balance in adult patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). The study assesses whether the use of continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration (CVVHDF) with …
The hypothesis is that renal function will improve following tricuspid valve intervention. A reduction in renal biomarkers is also expected. Furthermore, based on previous assessments, it is anticipated that there will be an improvement in volume status (reduced edema), symptom burden, and physical capacity in patients. Additionally, the study will …
