About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Catheter Placement for Renal Replacement Therapy in Patients With Acute Kidney Injury- Assessment of Dialysis Adequacy and Infection Rates

The purpose of this study is to examine the placement, timing, associated complications, efficacy of temporary and tunneled catheters for renal replacement therapy in patient with acute kidney injury.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to examine the placement, timing, associated complications, efficacy of temporary and tunneled catheters for renal replacement therapy in patient with acute kidney injury. In particular, we will be assessing renal replacement adequacy for patients on dialysis and continuous veno-venous hemofiltration by monitoring urea reduction ratios, venous and arterial pressures. We will also be monitoring infection rates. We will compare these outcomes in patients receiving tunneled catheters and patients receiving temporary catheters.

Acute Kidney Injury

What is being measured

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

  1. Dialysis adequacy

    Adequacy will be measured using urea reduction ratio for patients on intermittent hemodialysis. For continuous renal replacement therapy, we will record the maximum blood flow rate achievable. These measurements/recordings will be made on average within 1-3 days of starting therapy.

    Measured: up to 7d after starting renal replacement therapy

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. blood stream infection rates

    Patients will be followed throughout their hospitalization, which can range from a few days to several weeks. Bloodstream infections within 30d of catheter placement will be recorded.

    Measured: within 30d of catheter placement

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Kidney Injury, run by Brigham and Women's Hospital at 1 site in United States.

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 3 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 21 Jul 2015. 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 United States. 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?

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?

Dialysis adequacy (time frame: up to 7d after starting renal replacement therapy). 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 21 Jul 2015; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
