About this study

Official title: Assessment of Volume Status by Doppler Ultrasound to Predict Acute Kidney Injury in Critically Ill Patients

Fluid are used to increase cardiac output (CO) and blood pressure in patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) .Fluid is an important line of therapy that needed in shocked patient, hypovolemic and following surgery to correct the volume state and avoid acute kidney injury. However, excess fluid administration may be harmful leading itself to increase rates of acute kidney injury (AKI), prolonged days of mechanical ventilation and death . Excess fluid administration may increase right and left atrial pressure leading to congestion and edema.

Read the detailed description

Increasing cardiac output more than 15% following fluid administration was used as fluid responsiveness method by the Surviving Sepsis Campaign (SSC) guidelines. However, these strategies may promote over-resuscitation as most recommend continuing fluid administration until the patients are no longer VR. VR-based strategies do not assess elevations in right atrial pressure (RAP) or assess for venous congestion which could occur earlier.

The elevations of left atrial pressure can be seen clinically with hypoxia, cephalization on chest X-ray and B-lines on ultrasound resulting from pulmonary edema, while the elevation in right-sided pressure is much more difficult to detect.

It is possible that rightsided venous flow changes detect clinically important elevations in right atrial pressure that lead to venous congestion and end organ injury . Doppler flow patterns of hepatic veins (HV), portal vein (PV) and intra-renal veins (RV) are noninvasive and accurately identify early stages of right-sided venous congestion in patients who have cardiac dysfunction and congestive heart failure with elevated right atrial pressures . If HV, PV and RV can be validated as reliable measures of elevated RAP, such indicators might have utility in modulating fluid resuscitation in other critically ill patient populations.

Being tested
doppler US of portal vein, hepatic veins, intrarenal veins

What participants receive

    Hepatic Vein Doppler : To obtain the HV PW, a phased array transducer is used with cardiac pre-sets. ECG leads are placed to assist in the interpretation of HVD in sinus rhythm as well as atrial fibrillation. The middle hepatic vein is identified from mid-subcostal or lateral views during the end-expiratory phase of the patients respiratory cycle.

    Portal vein Doppler: From a lateral costal or subcostal window, the portal vein is identified in the coronal plane using a phased-array transducer. The PV were considered abnormal if the pulsatilty index was greater than 30%. The portal pulsatility index was defined as: (VMax - VMin/VMax) * 100%. Here, VMax is the maximal velocity and VMin is the minimal velocity during the cardiac cycle.

    Intra-renal venous Doppler: From lateral costal window, the kidney is located in the coronal plane and a color flow box placed over the distal renal calyceal junction to cortex.

What is being measured

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

  1. Changes in Doppler flow patterns of hepatic veins (HV), portal vein (PV) and intra-renal veins (RV) in critically ill patients and their relations to the patients' volume state.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Fluid Assessment by Doppler us Changes, 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 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 Nov 2021. 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?

Contact Mohammed Alyamany Kobeisy, MD (01002228914, mohamed.hussien10@med.au.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Changes in Doppler flow patterns of hepatic veins (HV), portal vein (PV) and intra-renal veins (RV) in critically ill patients and their relations to the patients' volume state. (time frame: 1 year). 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 NCT05115539, 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 Nov 2021.
