Active clinical trials for "Hyperkalemia"

It is hypothesized that zirconium silicate is safe and well tolerated and more effective than placebo (alternative hypothesis) in lowering serum potassium levels in subjects with serum potassium between 5 - 6.0 mmol/l versus no difference between zirconium silicate and placebo (null hypothesis). It is hypothesized that zirconium silicate even up to the top dose of 10g three times a day is well tolerated.

This study hypothesizes that the administration of Sodium zirconium cyclosilicate in CKD patients with hyperkalemia while avoiding dietary potassium restriction will normalize their serum potassium levels. Additionally, we aim to assess the effects of a high potassium diet on renal function, endothelial function, acidosis, systemic inflammatory status and gut microbiota.

To investigate whether concomitant treatment with Lokelma can improve the efficacy of standard blockade of the renin-angiotensin system in patients with type 2 diabetes, diabetic nephropathy and hyperkalemia.

Several studies have indicated that albuterol administered either intravenously or by inhalation can significantly reduce plasma potassium concentration in patients suffering from chronic renal failure.In conjunction with the decrease in potassium concentration a modest rise in glucose concentration is usually noted. These metabolic effects are characterized by rapid onset occurring as early as 3-5 minutes following salbutamol administration and lasting for at least 1 hour. The role played by ß2AR polymorphisms in determining the bronchial and vascular response to ß2AR agonist drugs, have been confirmed by several studies. The purpose of the present study is to examine possible causal relationships between genetically based alteration in the structure of ß2AR and the metabolic effects of inhaled albuterol.

This is a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to test a novel artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled electrocardiogram (ECG)-based screening tool for improving the diagnosis and management of potassium abnormalities.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether once-daily dosing of patiromer will reduce the frequency of hyperkalemic episodes in ESRD (end stage renal disease) study participants who receive conventional hemodialysis (HD). The study objective is to determine if patiromer administered orally once a day with breakfast or lunch will reduce episodes of hyperkalemia in ESRD study participants who receive thrice-weekly HD.

The purpose of this study is to find out whether there is a correlation (link) between the level of potassium in blood samples drawn from a vein and those drawn from a heel stick in infants scheduled for elective surgery.

This is an observational study designed to research the effect of mannitol on the concentration of intraoperative serum potassium in patients undergoing craniotomy, and to guide the safe use of mannitol during craniotomy.

To investigate the impact of reminders for serum potassium monitoring and of hyperkalemia alerts during potassium-increasing drug-drug-interactions.

Participant centres and researchers: 20 National Public Health System hospitals. Cardiology specialist physicians Clinical Research Ethics Committee (CREC): Hospital 12 de Octubre, Madrid - Main goal: To estimate prevalence and, in medium term basis (12 months), incidence of hyperkalaemia in heart failure (HF) outpatients with reduced ejection fraction (REF) and its relationship with non-optimal HF therapy and clinical outcomes (mortality and hospital admission). - Study design: National multicentric prospective observational study that includes 12 months follow-up of consecutive cases of HF outpatients with REF. Inclusion baseline visit and follow -up visits at 12 months will be scheduled for collecting clinical and blood sample data of patients. - Study population: The expected number of patients recruited in 20 Spanish research centres is 600.
