About this study

Official title: The Association of NGAL With the Development of Acute Kidney Injury After Stored Red Blood Cells Transfusion in Critically Ill Patients.

The study aims to explore the association of the novel urinary bio marker NGAL with the age of PRBCs(packed red blood cells) transfusion in critically ill patients.

Read the detailed description

The investigators will measure the urinary NGAL in all patients who received blood transfusion in the intensive care unit during the study period. The age of PRBCs transfusion will be correlated with the incidence of AKI. The rise of NGAL and serum creatinine will be used to diagnose AKI (Acute Kidney Injury).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Kidney Injury and Anemia, run by Kasr El Aini Hospital at 1 site in Egypt.

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 1 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 18 Jun 2018. 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 Egypt. 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?

Incidence of AKI (time frame: within 30 days). 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 18 Jun 2018.
