Active clinical trials for "Wounds and Injuries"

Acute kidney injury is a common complication of critical illness and is associated with high morbidity and mortality .Acute kidney injury is a syndrome that is characterized by a rapid decline in renal function and urine output, resulting in retention of waste products such as urea, nitrogen, and serum creatinine. Life-threatening consequences include volume overload, hyperkalaemia, and metabolic acidosis . In its severe form, Acute kidney injury requires renal replacement therapy, which is applied in 5±13% of Intensive Care Unit patients

Septic shock is one of the leading causes of death in patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurs in almost 50% of septic patients and is associated with significant mortality. Progression to the last stage (KDIGO stage 3) of AKI is an important step in the disease, as it usually requires initiation of RRT. Renal biomarkers are unable to accurately identify those patients who will progress to severe AKI (KDIGO 3). However, identification of patients at risk of progression to severe AKI could help the clinician to initiate optimal therapy including RRT. A new urine test, the Nephrocheck™ corresponding to the product of the urinary concentrations of 2 markers of renal tubule injury (TIMP2 and IGFBP7) has been validated. The Investigator have already performed two previous studies including septic shock patients (AKICHECK and BIOOCHECK). those previous datas will be reanalysed to examine whether the new urinary biomarkers TIMP2 and IGFBP7 can predict progression within 24 hours and 72 hours from mild and moderate (KDIGO 1 or 2) to severe AKI (KDIGO 3) in patients with septic shock. -All the datas required will be collected from two previous studies (AKICHECK and BIOCHECK) performed in 3 centers: Amiens medical ICU, Melun medico surgical ICU and Montpellier Medical ICU.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is the most common complication in patients after cardiac surgery. An usual estimation of risk for AKI is estimation of serum creatinine, which is unreliable indicator of AKI risk. Because of that, today different biomarkers are investigated to predict incidence for development AKI after cardiac surgery. This investigation will try to find potentially risk patients for developing AKI after cardiac surgery by using conventional markers (creatinine, glomerular filtration rate) in perioperative period comparing with two different biomarkers neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF-15) which are proven markers in patients with increased risk for AKI development.

This is a prospective registry study to surveil early liver injuries caused by Runzao Zhiyang Capsule (RZZY Capsule) through a non-intervention observational way. And attempt to establish a predictive model to screen susceptibilities to RZZY Capsule.

This is a prospective registry study to surveil early liver injuries caused by Zhuanggu Guanjie Pill (ZGGJ Pill) through a non-intervention observational way. And attempt to establish a predictive model to screen susceptibilities to ZGGJ Pill.

To determine whether MALDI, a type of Mass-Spectometry, can use protein pattern detection within urine to predict postoperative (after an operation) kidney damage in adults who have undergone emergency hip fracture surgery?

The purpose of this study is to track outcomes of the investigator's therapy approach with children of separation/divorce who have been exposed to parental conflict.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a complex disorder with clinical manifestations ranging from mild dysfunction to complete anuric kidney failure. Its leads to sudden and rapid decline in renal excretory function within hours to days,accompanied by accumulation of nitrogenous waste products such creatinine,urea and other clinically un measured products

Postoperative Acute Kidney Injury in Patients Undergoing Prolonged Neurosurgical Operations

This is a proof-of-concept study to collect images to train a CADe algorithm to predict the correct level of amputation in individuals scheduled for amputation secondary to PAD.
