About this study

Chronic kidney disease is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease associated with increased mortality rate during cardiac surgery in proportion to the kidney function. Chronic kidney disease is defined by decreased glomerular filtration rate (GFR) as classified by Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcome (KDIGO). Deterioration of kidney function has a complex and multifactorial pathophysiologic derangement. In order to counter kidney injury associated with cardiac surgery, several pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic interventions have been studied to prevent perioperative deterioration of kidney function. Diuretics as pharmacologic measure are often used post-cardiac surgery to treat fluid overload and managing patient with acute kidney injury by preventing anuria. Loop diuretics (furosemide) may improve renal blood flow, decrease reabsorption in renal tubules, decrease oxygen demand and energy consumption (blocking potassium/sodium/2cloride co-transport in loop of Henle), and prevent hypoxic injury of renal medulla. Low dose continuous furosemide hypothetically has a protective effect on cardiac surgery patients with kidney dysfunction, measured improved glomerular filtration rate, decreased indication for therapeutic furosemide infusion, and decreased need of renal replacement therapy. On the other hand, administration of furosemide is rather harmful in severe kidney dysfunction. Therefore, the objective of this study is to determine the protective effect of low-dose continuous furosemide perioperative in cardiac surgery patients with mild to moderate kidney dysfunction.

Read the detailed description

The study was a double-blind randomized controlled trial to determine the protective effect of low-dose continuous furosemide perioperative in cardiac surgery patients with mild to moderate kidney dysfunction. Ethical clearance for the study was approved by Institutional Review Board of National Cardiovascular Center Harapan Kita. Patients eligible for the study was recruited and written informed consent was obtained after clear explanation of the study. Allocation of furosemide and control group was done using simple computer randomization by staff who was not involved in the study. Furosemide infusion and normal saline was prepared by independent pharmacist blinded to the study. Furosemide solution was prepared to contain 40 mg of furosemide diluted with normal saline to a total volume of 40 cc (1 mg / 1 cc) and control solution was prepared to contain only 40 cc of normal saline. Both solution was packaged in 50-cc syringe and prepared in similar fashion. The solution was administered after induction of anesthesia with rate of 2 cc per hour for 12 hours.

Baseline participant were collected before surgery. All cardiac surgery procedure was done in concordance to hospital standard operating procedure. The primary outcomes of the study were glomerular filtration rate, need of diuretic infusion dose after intervention, need of renal replacement therapy and the secondary outcomes were ICU length of stay and in hospital mortality. The calculated sample size estimated was 41 participants per group, accounting for drop-out rate, expected sample size was 45 participants per group (90 participants in total).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Furosemide in 0.9 % NaCl 100 Mg/100 mL (1 mg/mL) and NaCl 0.9% in people with Chronic Kidney Disease and Cardiac Disease, run by National Cardiovascular Center Harapan Kita Hospital Indonesia at 1 site in Indonesia.

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 8 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 5 Jan 2024. 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 Indonesia. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 5 Jan 2024). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Glomerular Filtration Rate at Baseline (time frame: baseline / before induction to anesthesia). The study lists 7 primary outcomes in all. 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 5 Jan 2024.
