About this study

Official title: Assessment of Preventive Effect of Vitamin E +Selenium on Acute Kidney Injury Through NGAL in Patients Undergoing Controlled Hypotension During Neurosurgery Operations

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Kidney injury happens in controlled hypotension during brain operations by using Neutrophil Gelatinase Associated Lipocalin ELISA Kit and if so, does VitaminE+Selenium prevent it

Read the detailed description

NGAL(Neutrophil Gelatinase Associated Lipocalin) is a 25KD protein which bounds with Gelatinase in Neutrophil granules.It is also expressed in epithelial cells of kidney tubules.NGAL increases in ischemic and toxic injuries of kidney. During controlled hypotension in brain operations injury to the kidneys might occur . This study is designed to assess this possibility and evaluate the effect of VitaminE+Selenium on prevention of this problem

Being tested
vitamin E +Selenium

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing vitamin E +Selenium in people with Acute Kidney Injury, run by Tehran University of Medical Sciences at 1 site in Iran.

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.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Mar 2012. 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 Iran. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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 Mahmoodreza Torkaman, resident (0098 917 105 0954, MRZTORKAMAN@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

increased amount of urinary or serum NGAL after controlled hypotension (time frame: from 2 hours to 24 hours after controlled hypotension). 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 14 Mar 2012.
