What is being measured

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

  1. Comparison of the the peak creatinine level during the postoperative 48h by more than 0.3 mg/dL between two groups.

    We would investigate if the peak creatinine level during the postoperative 48h would differ by more than 0.3 mg/dL between two groups. The primary outcome was decided based on the AKIN criteria which defines acute kidney injury if serum creatinine increases more than 0.3 mg/dL during the postoperative 48 h.

    ; increase in serum creatinine of 0.3 mg/dL or >50 percent developing over <48 hours

    Measured: postoperative 48 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing sodium bicarbonate and Saline in people with Acute Kidney Injury, run by Yonsei University at 1 site in South Korea.

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 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Jul 2018. 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 South Korea. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Comparison of the the peak creatinine level during the postoperative 48h by more than 0.3 mg/dL between two groups. (time frame: postoperative 48 hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01920126, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 17 Jul 2018.
