Trial summary

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. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Biomarkers in Estimation for Risk of Acute Kidney Injury in Cardiac Surgery

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.

What is being measured

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

  1. Consecutive values of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL)

    By the changing of NGAL values in consecutive measuring, predict which patients are in increased risk for development of AKI

    Measured: One year

  2. Consecutive values of growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF-15)

    By the changing of GDF-15 values in consecutive measuring, predict which patients are in increased risk for development of AKI

    Measured: One year

  3. Consecutive values of glomerular filtration rate (GFR)

    By the changing of GFR values in consecutive measuring, predict which patients are in increased risk for development of AKI

    Measured: One Year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Kidney Injury (Nontraumatic), run by Nikola Bradic, MD.

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 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Nov 2020. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Nikola Bradic, MD (+385 91 589 3480, nbradic@kbd.hr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Consecutive values of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) (time frame: One year). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 13 Nov 2020.
