About this study

Acute kidney injury (AKI) affects approximately 20% of hospitalized patients and up to 67% of those admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU), making it among the most common organ dysfunctions among the critically ill.Major adverse cardiac events (MACE) after non cardiac surgery are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. The reported incidence of postoperative myocardial infarction (POMI) among patients undergoing noncardiac surgery is between 3% and 6%.The aim of this study is to Identify the impact of acute kidney injury on the development of myocardial injury after non cardiac surgery and to correlate it with other risk factors of for MINS.

Read the detailed description

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is classically described as an abrupt or rapidly reversible reduction in the excretion of nitrogenous waste products, including urea, nitrogen, and creatinine. Acute kidney injury (AKI) affects approximately 20% of hospitalized patients and up to 67% of those admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU), making it among the most common organ dysfunctions among the critically ill. Depending on severity, AKI contributes to short-term mortality rates between 40% and 70%, and survivors are at increased risk for chronic kidney disease. Because surgical care and perioperative events and comorbidities interact to contribute to renal dysfunction in different patterns than in nonsurgical patients, surgical patients have unique risk factors for renal dysfunction.

Major adverse cardiac events (MACE) after non cardiac surgery are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. The reported incidence of postoperative myocardial infarction (POMI) among patients undergoing noncardiac surgery is between 3% and 6%. Early recognition and timely treatment of POMI after surgery are very important. Therefore, routinemonitoring of cardiac troponin has been recommended to identify patients at risk of early postoperative cardiovascular events after surgery. Myocardial injury after noncardiac surgery (MINS) is defined as follows: myocardial injury caused by ischemia (that may or may not result in necrosis), has prognostic relevance, and occurs duringor within 30 days after noncardiac surgery. MINS can be measured by postoperative troponin elevation in the presence or absence of clinical symptoms. MINS occurs in 8% to 22% of adults undergoing major non cardiacsurgery. To date, there have been few studies investigatingthe risk factors of MINS in critical patients.

The postoperative AKI is a new risk factor of MINS in critical patients, and the impact of AKI on MINS has not been evaluated in previous studies.

It is unclear by what mechanisms AKI influences theMINS in critical patients. A possible explanation of this finding is that in patientswith postoperativeAKI, disturbed autonomic nerve functions may induce postoperative hypotension and hypoperfusion, which may lead to MINS .

Other idependent risk factors for myocardial injury after non cardiac surgery such as emergency surgery and long time operation.The aim of this study is to Identify the impact of acute kidney injury on the development of myocardial injury after non cardiac surgery and to correlate it with other risk factors of for MINS.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Assesse Prevalence of Acute Kidney Injury and Myocardial Injury After Non Cardiac Surgery, run by Assiut University.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 May 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

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?

Assessment of Acute Kidney Injury as a Risk Factor for Myocardial Injury after non Cardiac Surgery in Critical Patients (time frame: one year). 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 1 May 2017.
