Identification of Prognostic Urinary Biomarker for Acute Kidney Injury in Preterm Infants by Proteomics...

Acute Kidney Injury

Clinical definitions of acute kidney injury (AKI) have been based on an increase in serum creatinine and a decrease in urine output. However, applying this definition to neonates remains challenging because of the normal renal physiologic features that serum creatinine levels are expected to increase in the first days after birth, and impaired sodium reabsorption and concentrating ability. Because of several limitations of early detection of AKI, investigators are focused on identifying biomarkers that predict AKI before an increase serum creatinine level. Investigators will collect urine from preterm infants before and after administrating ibuprofen for closing patent ductus arteriosus. To identify novel biomarkers, investigators will analyze urine by proteomics. To verify those biomarkers, investigators will use initial urine on the first day of life from preterm infants who diagnosed AKI within 7 days after birth without any risk factors for AKI and enrolled institutional bio-repository.

Effectiveness and Safety of Danshen Injection for Acute Kidney Injury in Primary Nephrotic Syndrome...

Acute Kidney InjuryNephrotic Syndrome1 more

The goal of this real-world observational study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the Chinese herbal-derived therapeutic Danshen injection following immunosuppressive therapy and prophylactic anticoagulation with low molecular heparin for acute kidney injury in primary nephrotic syndrome. The main questions to answer are: Whether or not Danshen injection is beneficial for acute kidney injury patients in primary nephrotic syndrome patients. Whether or not Danshen injection will increase the bleeding risk in primary nephrotic syndrome patients receiving low molecular heparin. Participants' information will be retrieved from hospital files stored in medical records and the electronic patient data registry. Participants received Danshen injection will be compared with control group to evaluate the recovery of renal function and side effects.

Early Dry Cohort : Impact on the Fluid Balance of a Perfusion Based Protocol to Adjust UFnet During...

Acute Kidney Injury

Fluid overload is frequent and associated with mortality in critically ill patients, especially those with acute kidney injury. If fluid loading is a cornerstone of a resuscitation strategy, some authors promote an evacuation phase to limit the fluid overload exposure (deresuscitation strategy). In patients with continuous renal therapy, often presenting an inadequate diuresis, it includes the net ultrafiltration setting. A potential side effect of deresuscitation strategy is to induce iatrogenic hypovolemia. We have implemented a perfusion-based protocol to induce systematic early fluid removal on patients after haemodynamic stabilization. We would like to observe the impact on the fluid balance of such a protocol and to explore the recruitment capacity of our centre and exploratory outcomes to lead a future randomized control study.

Colistin Pharmacokinetics in Critically Ill Patients During Extended Dialysis

Infection Due to Resistant BacteriaAcute Kidney Injury

The emergence of multidrug-resistant bacteria has recently renewed interest in colistin. Data on dosing in critically ill patients undergoing extended dialysis are missing. The aim of this study is to determine the pharmacokinetics of colistin during extended dialysis in critically ill patients and to provide dosing guidelines for this drug.

High Potency Statins and Acute Kidney Injury

Hypercholesterolemia

Statins are a class of cholesterol lowering medications that are prescribed for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease. The purpose of this study is to determine if there is an excess risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) with high potency statins compared to low potency statins. The investigators will carry out separate population based cohort studies using administrative health care databases in nine jurisdictions in Canada, the US, and the UK. Cohorts will be defined by the initiation of a statin, with follow-up until hospitalization for AKI. Analyses will be done separately for groups of patients with and without chronic kidney disease. The results from the separate sites will be combined in a meta-analysis to provide an overall assessment of the risk of AKI in new statin users.

Pancreatic Exocrine Insufficiency and Pancreatic Enzyme Supplementation in Critically Ill Adult...

Critical IllnessSepsis4 more

Malnutrition is a frequent problem in critically ill patients that is associated with detrimental clinical outcomes. To provide adequate nutritional support, current studies focused mostly on the choice of delivery timing, formula selection and the route of administration, little attention was paid to malnutrition related to exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI). In fact, malnutrition is also a major consequence of pancreatic exocrine insufficiency and pancreatic damage is commonly observed in critically ill patients without prior pancreatic diseases. Hence, EPI associated malnutrition should be concerned due to the high prevalence of pancreatic damage in critically ill patients. The aims of this study is to evaluate the incidence of EPI in critically ill adult patients and explore its potential risk factors. Moreover, the efficacy of pancreatic enzyme supplementation therapy on malnutrition in ICU patients with specific clinical characteristics will be investigated.
