Trial summary

The bioenergetic balance is the sum of energy exchanged during CRRT and is mostly defined by citrate glucose and lactate. When CRRT was performed with the older dialysis fluids, glucose and lactate could be an important source of energy next to citrate when used as predilution (6, 7). Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Retrospective Analysis of the Impact of Non-nutritional Calories During Continuous Veno-Venous Hemofiltration

The bioenergetic balance is the sum of energy exchanged during CRRT and is mostly defined by citrate glucose and lactate. When CRRT was performed with the older dialysis fluids, glucose and lactate could be an important source of energy next to citrate when used as predilution (6, 7). During continuous venovenous hemofiltration (CVVH), a subgroup of CRRT which is performed with the newer dialysis fluids without lactate or glucose as advocated by the KDIGOguidelines, glucose and in a minor way lactate mostly induce a loss of energy. The first aim is to determine how this bioenergetic balance impacts energy need compared to the measured energy with indirect calorimetry and how nutrition therapy needs to be adapted.

Also, disease specific predicting equation have been created for patients suffering from acute kidney injury treated with renal replacement therapy. How this predicting equation and other existing predicting equations agree with the measured REE has not been validated yet. The second aim is to determine how predictive equations correlate with measured REE in patients treated with CVVH.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Kidney Injury and Continuous Venovenous Hemofiltration, run by Universitair Ziekenhuis Brussel at 1 site in Belgium.

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 4 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 3 Jul 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 Belgium. 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?

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?

Energy (time frame: during study completion, on average 4weeks). 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 3 Jul 2024.
