Active clinical trials for "Renal Insufficiency, Chronic"

The purpose of this study is to assess health-related Quality of Life (QoL) changes in participants with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and secondary hyperparathyroidism (sHPT) undergoing hemodialysis and receiving paricalcitol intravenous (iv).

This ia a prospective, randomized, double blind, placebo controlled trial. patients schedule for primary PCI or elective PCI will randomly allocated to receive either a single dose of EPO (Recormon, Roche, Epoetin beta) or saline intravenously before PCI. The investigators assume that the incidence rate of CIN will be significantly lower in the EPO group compared to placebo. In addition, EPO administration will result in a decrease of infarct size.

This retrospective observational study will evaluate the hemoglobin levels in patients with renal anemia over 6 months treatment with Mircera (methoxy polyethylene glycol-epoetin beta).

This prospective observational study will assess the efficacy and safety of Mircera (methoxy polyethylene glycol-epoetin beta) in clinical practice in patients with chronic kidney disease, in pre-dialysis or on dialysis, initiated on Mircera treatment. Data from each patient will be collected over 12 months of treatment.

Coronary artery disease is a major cause of death in patients with renal dysfunction Among patients who undergo coronary artery bypass grafting ,renal dysfunction is known To be a major predictor of in-hospital and remote mortality As little is known about the impact of non-dialysis-dependent renal dysfunction on short and mid term Outcomes following coronary surgery we have decided to investigate the effect of prophylactic Hemodialysis on the mortality and morbidity of the patients with ckd (stage 3,4 ) and compare these Effect with the control group

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is common, but it is often over-looked in patients with this disease when they are getting medical treatment. Patients with CKD have special needs for their medical treatment. When these special needs are not considered their medical care may lead to unintended harm (called safety events) which can cause hospitalization, more kidney problems, and even death. This research study has two purposes. The first purpose is to determine how participants feel about wearing a medical alert bracelet or necklace that alerts health care workers that the user of the bracelet or necklace has decreased kidney function. Medical alert bracelets are often recommended for people who have other medical problems, such as diabetes. This medical alert bracelet or necklace has an address to an informational website about the safe care of patients with kidney problems. The investigators think that alerting health care workers that a person has decreased kidney function may decrease their chances of having a medical injury and improve the safety of their care. The second purpose of this research study is to track how often people with kidney problems may be exposed to medicines, tests, or procedures that might increase their chance of having an accidental medical injury or safety event. Though some medical injuries can not be prevented, the investigators want to find out what medical events in patients with kidney problems might be preventable. The investigators also want to find out if other things might increase a patient's chances of getting a medical injury, such as physical weakness or medical instructions that might be confusing.

To examine the effect of ergocalciferol treatment on 25-hydroxyvitamin D and PTH levels in patients with CKD stage 3 and 4

The purpose of this study is to investigate clinical non-inferiority, pharmacodynamic effect and safety of Actparin® (heparin sodium - Laboratório Químico Farmacêutico Bergamo Ltd.) compared to Heparin Sodium (APP Pharmaceuticals) in patients with renal failure under hemodialysis treatment.

This observational study is conducted globally. The aim of the study is to investigate the effectiveness and safety of real-life treatment with Norditropin®. The study population will consist of children and adults who are on treatment with Norditropin® in accordance with normal clinical practice.

The purpose of this study is to establish the long-term safety and efficacy of Biogeneric Epoetin, the attainability of therapeutic target for anaemia management, and the impact of Epoetin treatment on long-term health outcome and its cost effectiveness.
