Trial summary

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common disorder and associated with high morbidity and mortality. However, distinguishing transient AKI from persistent AKI may help in individualizing treatment and limit short and long term consequences of AKI. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Performance of Diuretic Stress Test in Predicting Short Term Renal Recovery in Oliguric Critically-ill Patients

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common disorder and associated with high morbidity and mortality. However, distinguishing transient AKI from persistent AKI may help in individualizing treatment and limit short and long term consequences of AKI. Previous studies suggested usual urinary indices to perform poorly for separating transient from persistent AKI in an unselected population of critically ill patients. The recent KDIGO (Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes) guidelines underlined the need for additional strategies in estimating renal short term prognosis.

Recently, a Furosemide stress test (FST) was validated in a cohort of unselected critically ill patients. This stress test performance was found to be good in predicting capacity to identify those patients that will progress to advanced stage AKI. Additionally, FST performance was higher than those of usual renal biomarker. The limited sample size of this preliminary study however precluded adjustment for usual confounders including oliguria.

The primary objective of this study is to assess diagnostic performance of FST in differentiating transient and persistent AKI. Secondary objectives are to assess diagnostic performance of FST in predicting need for renal replacement therapy, and to confirm FST results after adjustment for confounders.

What participants receive

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

  • FurosemideDrug

    1.0 mg/kg of intravenous furosemide. In order to minimize the risk of hypovolemia, urine output will be replaced ml for ml with either Ringers lactate or normal saline for six hours after the furosemide stress test.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of patients with renal recovery

    Measured: day 3

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. natriuresis(mmol/L)

    Measured: day 0 to day 3

  2. fractional excretion of sodium(%)

    Measured: day 0 to day 3

  3. fractional excretion of urea (%),

    Measured: day 0 to day 3

  4. U/P urea ratio(mg.dl-1/ mg.dl-1)

    Measured: day 0 to day 3

  5. U/P creatinine ratio (mg.dl-1/ mg.dl-1)

    Measured: day 0 to day 3

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Furosemide in people with Critical Illness and Oliguria, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Saint Etienne at 4 sites in France.

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 4 inclusion and 4 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Jun 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in France. 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 was stopped early (reason given: departure of the coordinating investigator from another institution). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Number of patients with renal recovery (time frame: day 3). 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 Jun 2019.
