About this study

Blood transfusion strategies in cardiac surgery are a research topic that has been studied more for adults. There is not enough data on this subject for children in studies. Investigators aim to examine the renal damage risk level of blood transfusion volume, which is one of the modifiable risk factors that can cause acute kidney injury in pediatric cases undergoing cardiac surgery.

The main question it aims to answer is:

What is the effect of blood transfusion volume on the risk of renal damage in pediatric cardiovascular surgery? The names of the patients who were operated on by the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery will be accessed from the system records and their files will be reviewed. The patients' demographic information, anesthesia management and postoperative renal function tests will be scanned.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Congenital Cardiac Defect and Acute Renal Injury, run by Hacettepe University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 21 Mar 2025. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

postoperative acute renal failure (time frame: From registration to the end of the second postoperative day). 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 21 Mar 2025.
