About this study

There are currently no clear recommendations on hemodynamic targets during kidney transplantation and most anesthesiologists rely on empiric or obsolete parameters such as CVP.

The aim of this study is to investigate hemodynamic management of these patients applying a new generation of advanced monitoring systems such as MOSTCAREUP which can potentially provide a clear overview of the circulatory status beat by beat and to adjust fluid therapy in every single patient or clinical condition.

Read the detailed description

Renal transplantation is actually considered the optimal elective treatment for end stage kidney disease.

Successful renal transplantation involves the optimization of several parameters. Previous studies have suggested that perioperative hemodynamic factors influence immediate and long-term graft survival.

Perioperative hemodynamic management of this kind of surgery is nowadays focused on optimization of fluid therapy concerning both the donor and the graft and their interaction. Postoperative graft function is not exclusively determined by donor and graft characteristics. Several studies over the last 30 years indeed demonstrated that hemodynamic status of the recipient during kidney transplant surgery relates to graft function and proper management of balancing fluid plays a critical role through maintaining optimal blood volume and so assure an adequate supply of oxygen to the tissues.

Aggressive expansion of the intravascular volume during transplantation surgery has been recommended by most previous studies supporting the so called "liberal" approach to fluid management suggesting that a massive intravascular volume expansion was necessary improve renal blood flow and minimize hypoperfusion caused tissue damages. Nowadays it is clear that adequate early graft function requires perfusion of the transplanted kidney, which may be enhanced by expansion of the intravascular volume in the recipient. However, some studies have reported that aggressive intraoperative volume expansion is not always warranted in kidney transplantation and can expose patients with preexistent cardiac disease or poor myocardial function to the risk of fluid overload, acute respiratory failure, and prolonged ventilation. Moreover fluid overload has been demonstrated to be harmful even for graft perfusion, microcirculation and tissue oxygen delivery.

There are currently no clear recommendations on hemodynamic targets during kidney transplantation and most anesthesiologists rely on empiric or obsolete parameters such as CVP.

The aim of this study is to investigate hemodynamic management of these patients applying a new generation of advanced monitoring systems such as MOSTCAREUP which can potentially provide a clear overview of the circulatory status beat by beat and to adjust fluid therapy in every single patient or clinical condition.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Fluid replacement based on MOSTCARE up in people with Transplant Dysfunction, run by University of Padova at 1 site in Italy.

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 1 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 3 Jan 2019. 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 Italy. 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?

Urine output in the first hour post unclamping (ml) in the two groups (time frame: first hour post unclamping during kydney transplanation). 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 NCT03446196, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 3 Jan 2019.
