Trial summary

Dialysis is used to control the fluid balance and metabolic state of patients with kidney disease. Control of the metabolic state, via electrolytes, can be monitored using labs that are routinely drawn from patients undergoing continuous hemodialysis. Control of fluid removal is much more difficult. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Observational Study Evaluating the Hemodynamic Relationship Between Volume Removal and Pulse Pressure Variation During Renal Replacement Therapy

Dialysis is used to control the fluid balance and metabolic state of patients with kidney disease. Control of the metabolic state, via electrolytes, can be monitored using labs that are routinely drawn from patients undergoing continuous hemodialysis. Control of fluid removal is much more difficult. This study aims to determine whether changes in the blood pressure associated with breathing correlate with or predict intolerance to fluid responsiveness with continuous dialysis.

We hypothesize that a measurement of changes in blood pressure with breathing called arterial pulse pressure variation may be able to predict the ability to remove fluid during continuous renal replacement therapy.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Predictive value of pulse pressure variation for tolerance of fluid removal on CVVHD

    Measured: Iterative 24 hr periods for the duration of CRRT

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Increased doses of vasoactive agents on CRRT

    Measured: Iterative 24 hr periods for the duration of CRRT

  2. Inability to meet goal ultrafiltration rate

    Measured: Iterative 24 hr periods for the duration of CRRT

  3. Hypotensive events on CRRT

    Measured: Iterative 24 hr periods for the duration of CRRT

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Kidney Failure and Respiratory Failure, run by University of Chicago at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Aug 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Predictive value of pulse pressure variation for tolerance of fluid removal on CVVHD (time frame: Iterative 24 hr periods for the duration of CRRT). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 31 Aug 2016.
