About this study

Official title: Influence of Preoperative Fluid Intake on the Onset of Postoperative Acute Kidney Injury in Cardiac Surgery Patients: the HYDRATE-CSX Trial

To investigate the influence of preoperative fluid and food intake in cardiac surgery patients on the development of postoperative AKI.

Read the detailed description

Acute renal failure (ARF) and the need for renal replacement therapy (RRT) is a major complication after cardiac surgery, associated with mortality and an increased risk to develop end-stage renal disease. Cardiac surgery patients are at increased risk to develop acute kidney failure due to ischaemia-reperfusion injury, cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) induced inflammation and haemolysis, hemodynamic alterations, vasoconstriction and resulting reduced renal perfusion. According to the current literature, AKI occurs in average in 20-30% after cardiac surgery with an incidence of RRT in 1-5%. Several reviews revealed the literature and concluded that , inter alia, euvolemia, adequate nutrition, the avoidance of nephrotoxic drugs and anemia optimization belong to the most effective prevention strategies.

Patients are instructed to follow the nil per os (NPO) guidelines, including abstinence of clear liquids for >2 hours preoperative as well as fasting time of light foods for > 6 hours and fatty foods for >8 hours prior to surgery. However, these guidelines encourage patients to continue PO hydration until 2 h before surgery in order to optimize the volume status. Besides the fact that NPO lasts in average critically longer than required, surgery delay is a common issue and may lead to an exceedance of NPO up to twice as long as required.

Data about the exact mechanism is still sparse, but preoperative iv hydration may correct or even expand intravascular volume, improve renal perfusion and induce diuresis, stimulate endogenous natriuretic peptides release and inactivate the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS).

Large trials on this very relevant topic in these high risk cardiac surgery patients are absolutely missing. Therefore, this prospective observational study aims to investigate the influence of varied preoperative fluid and food intake in cardiac surgery patients on the development of postoperative AKI.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Thoracic Surgery and Acute Kidney Injury, run by RWTH Aachen University at 1 site in Germany.

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 6 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 11 Sep 2019. 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 Germany. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Julia Krieger (+49 241 88726, jukrieger@ukaachen.de), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Acute kidney injury (time frame: 30 days). 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 11 Sep 2019.
