About this study

Official title: Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin(NGAL): Early Biomarker of Acute Kidney Injury After Cardiac Surgery

The following objectives were used for comparison: 1)primary objective: Evaluate the urinary excretion of NGAL as a marker of early development of acute kidney injury in patients undergoing cardiac surgery.

Read the detailed description

All patients aged greater than 18 years undergoing elective cardiac surgery for coronary artery bypass grafting and / or valve replacement, in need of cardiopulmonary bypass and with the prospect of minimum hospital length stay of 48 hours in ICU, will be candidates for participation in this study.

Criteria for exclusion Patients with IRA before hospitalization in the ICU; Patients with estimated glomerular filtration (MDRD formula simplified) less than 30 ml / min; Patients transplanted kidney; Patients with chronic renal failure on dialysis; Patients anuric the admission in the ICU; Refusal to participate in the study.

Definition of IRA:

IRA will be defined according to the new proposal of AKIN (Acute Kidney Injury Network) (awaiting publication): abrupt elevation (48 hours) of serum creatinine in value greater than or equal to 0.3 mg / dL or an increase of 50% compared to baseline or reduction of urinary volume to 0.5 ml / kg / h for more than 6 hours (Annex 1).

Laboratory Investigations Samples of urine will be collected before surgery, after 2, 4, 6, 12, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours after the end of the CEC for determination of creatinine and urinary NGAL (normalization of NGAL for excretion urinary creatinine).

The serum creatinine is measured before surgery and daily during the first 4 days after surgery for the diagnosis of IRA. If the time of CEC exceed 2 hours, the first sample of urine after the end of the CEC will be considered as "sample 2 hours".

Quantification of NGAL Samples of urine will be centrifuged (5 min at 2000 rpm) and frozen at -20 ° C for later determination of NGAL by method of ELISA (Kit commercial AntybodyShop, Denmark).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Early Acute Kidney Injury, run by Hospital de Base at 1 site in Brazil.

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 8 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 4 Feb 2009. 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 Brazil. 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 Rafael C Miranda, Physician (55 - 17 32015054, rafacmiranda@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Evaluate the urinary excretion of NGAL as a marker of early development of acute kidney injury in patients undergoing cardiac surgery (time frame: 96 hours). 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 4 Feb 2009.
