Trial summary

The aim of the study is to explore association between increased central venous pressure, Ejection Fraction and renal dysfunction (eGFR) in patients with Cardio-Renal Syndromes type 1 and 2. The pilot study was set to provide the expected correlation coefficient for a sample size determination of the subsequent study. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Some Characteristics of Interaction Between Heart and Kidneys in Cardio-Renal Syndrome Type 1 and Type 2

The aim of the study is to explore association between increased central venous pressure, Ejection Fraction and renal dysfunction (eGFR) in patients with Cardio-Renal Syndromes type 1 and 2. The pilot study was set to provide the expected correlation coefficient for a sample size determination of the subsequent study.

OBJECTIVES

The aim of the study is to explore association between increased central venous pressure (CVP), Ejection Fraction (EF) and renal dysfunction (eGFR) in patients with Cardio-Renal Syndromes type 1 and 2.

BACKGROUND

The pathophysiology of impaired renal function in cardiovascular disease is multifactorial. Recent investigations suggest that management of patients based on low-flow theory does not lead to improved outcomes. Relative importance of right heart dysfunction (manifested as increased CVP) has not been evaluated . Precise understanding of bidirectional pathways by which the heart and kidneys influence each other is necessary to define optimal treatment strategies specific to the subtypes, as therapies directed towards one organ system may have beneficial or unfavorable effects on the other.

METHODS

The study is of non-experimental (observational) type, based on retrospective chart review. The patients' personal identifiers are concealed and an anonymized datasets used (unique code given to each patient, which is kept secure under the control of hospital staff).

What participants receive

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

  • CVP measurementOther

    CVP measurements had been performed with an electronic pressure transducer in spontaneously breathing non-ventilated patients. Central vein access was established trough the subclavian or internal jugular veins. Mean CVP was recorded for each patient, measured in mmHg.

What is being measured

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

  1. renal impairment (defined as a Glomerular Filtration Rate less than 60 mL/min per 1.73 m2)

    Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate has been assessed with the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease formula

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Heart Failure, run by Tbilisi State University.

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 1 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 11 Oct 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

renal impairment (defined as a Glomerular Filtration Rate less than 60 mL/min per 1.73 m2) (time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year). 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 11 Oct 2017.
