About this study

Official title: The Effect of Renastart Formula Supplementation on Serum Electrolytes in Children With Acute Kidney Injury

This clinical trial will evaluate Renastart formula effectiveness in children with acute kidney injury (AKI) and acute on top of chronic kidney disease (CKD), in maintaining normal serum electrolytes levels without using electrolyte binders,24 patients will be recruited from Pediatric Nephrology Unit (PNU), Children's Hospital, Ain Shams University, they will be assigned randomly in to two arms, arm 1 including patients who will be treated by electrolytes binders, arm 2 including patients who will be treated by Renastart formula, after initial assessment serum electrolyte evaluation will be followed up monthly for 3 months.

Being tested
Renastart formula, calcium carbonate (phosphorus binder) with / or sodium polystyrene sulfonate (potassium binder) with dosage 0.5-1mg/kg/day orally.
Medical subject headings
Acute Kidney Injury

What participants receive

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

  • Renastart formulaDietary supplement

    • Renastart formula is an artificial formula is made by Vitaflo USA, Nestle Health Science Company.
    • Renastart formula preparation: Adding one level scoop of Renastart to 30 ml water.
    • Renastart formula will be used with breast milk, standard infant formula, standard pediatric infant feed and/ or mixed with diet.
    • Renastart formula dosage will be adjusted to be 1/4 Renastart and 3/4 breast milk, standard infant formula or standard pediatric infant daily caloric feed ratio.
    • Readjusting dosage ratio according to serum electrolytes levels especially potassium.
  • calcium carbonate (phosphorus binder) with / or sodium polystyrene sulfonate (potassium binder) with dosage 0.5-1mg/kg/day orally.Drug

    calcium carbonate (phosphorus binder) in dosage of 45-65 mg/kg/day orally with / or sodium polystyrene sulfonate (potassium binder) in dosage of 0.5-1mg/kg/day orally.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Renastart formula and calcium carbonate (phosphorus binder) with / or sodium polystyrene sulfonate (potassium binder) with dosage 0.5-1mg/kg/day orally. in people with Acute Kidney Injury, run by Ain Shams University 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 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

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?

To evaluate the effectiveness and tolerability of Renastart formula in children with AKI and acute on top of CKD to correct and maintain normal serum levels of electrolytes. (time frame: monthly for 3 months). 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.
