Trial summary

An observational study of the state of the renal and systemic circulations in patients with early septic shock. Both macro and microvascular parameters will be assessed using echocardiography, sublingual incident dark field video-microscopy and renal contrast enhanced ultrasound. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Macro and Micro Haemodynamic Responses to Shock in the Renal and Systemic Circulations; a Prospective Observational Study

An observational study of the state of the renal and systemic circulations in patients with early septic shock. Both macro and microvascular parameters will be assessed using echocardiography, sublingual incident dark field video-microscopy and renal contrast enhanced ultrasound. Patients will be categorised by KDIGO degree of kidney injury at Day 7 and stratified. Haemodynamic and perfusion based variables over time for these groups will be compared to assess the impact of changes in same on the development of AKI. Lab based work to quantify renal injury biomarkers will also be undertaken.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Kidney Injury and Septic Shock, run by King's College London at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Dec 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 United Kingdom. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Sam Hutchings, PhD (0203286000, sam.hutchings@nhs.net), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

KDIGO AKI grade (time frame: Day 7). 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 NCT03713307, 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 10 Dec 2018; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
