Trial summary

Continuous Veno-Venous Hemofiltration (CVVH) can eliminate metabolic products effectively and replace renal function partly. It is widely used in intensive care units (ICUs), especially for patients with acute kidney injury/failure in an unstable hemodynamic status. Read more about this study

About this study

Continuous Veno-Venous Hemofiltration (CVVH) can eliminate metabolic products effectively and replace renal function partly. It is widely used in intensive care units (ICUs), especially for patients with acute kidney injury/failure in an unstable hemodynamic status. Lactate is a molecule smaller than glucose, which can pass through filtration membrane freely in CVVH. Therefore, the blood lactate concentrations would no longer reflect tissue oxygenation status in patients with unstable hemodynamic status. However, there is no prospective study evaluated the effect of CVVH on lactate removal in critically ill patients. The influence of different dose of CVVH on lactate elimination is not clear in patients with different level of serum lactate. Our study aimed to find out how the dose of CVVH effects on lactate clearance, and then re-estimate the prognostic value of lactate in critically ill patients with CVVH.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Plasma lactate were measuredOther

    Three different doses (20 ml/kg/h, 35 ml/kg/h and 45 ml/kg/h) of CVVH were applied to critically ill patients who experiencing CVVH. Each dose of CVVH was sequentially gave to each patient and lasted for 30 minutes separately

What is being measured

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

  1. plasma lactate

    Each dose of CVVH was lasted for 30 minutes separately. Blood samples were draw pre-(A) and post-dialyzer (V) site after each dosage of CVVH was carried out for 30 minutes and then plasma lactates were measured immediately

    Measured: 30 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Kidney Injury, Acute, run by First Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-Sen University at 1 site in China.

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 6 inclusion and 2 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Jul 2022. 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 China. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

plasma lactate (time frame: 30 minutes). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01824771, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 27 Jul 2022.
