Buenos Aires, Buenos AiresAges 18 years+ - NCT06427343RecruitingPhase 4
IV iron: low dose vs high dose for heart failure with low iron
This study compares two different doses of IV iron (low vs high) to see which works better for people with heart failure and low iron levels. It may help you feel less tired and breathe easier.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06659835Recruiting
Amino acid loss during kidney dialysis in the ICU
This study looks at how many amino acids (building blocks of protein) are lost during continuous kidney dialysis in patients in the intensive care unit after surgery. It may help doctors better understand how to support nutrition in these patients.
Vienna, State of ViennaAges 18 years+ - NCT05283512Recruiting
IV versus drink fluids to protect kidneys after CT scan
This study compares giving fluids through a vein versus drinking fluids to lower the risk of sudden kidney injury after a CT scan with contrast dye. It focuses on adults with very poor kidney function who are scheduled for an elective CT scan.
Odense C, FynAges 18 years+ - NCT07309367Recruiting
Web-based advance care planning for dialysis patients
This trial tests a web-based program called 'My Voice' that helps people on dialysis plan ahead for their future care. It's for patients in Singapore who have advanced kidney failure and certain health challenges, and it also involves a family caregiver.
SingaporeAges 21 years+ - NCT04626167RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing a bladder transplant done with a kidney transplant
This early-phase study is testing a combined bladder and kidney transplant approach for people whose bladder problems damage the kidneys. The goal is to see if this treatment can improve bladder and kidney outcomes and be done safely.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 1–60 - NCT05001009Enrolling by invitation
Goals of care conversation support for certain serious illnesses
This study helps primary care clinicians and their patients have structured “goals of care” conversations (about what matters most and care preferences). It may help you get clearer, earlier planning—especially if you have a serious illness and higher risk of hospitalization or death.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06054035RecruitingPhase 4
SGLT2 inhibitor for prediabetes complications
This trial tests if a drug called dapagliflozin (an SGLT2 inhibitor) can help prevent complications in people with prediabetes when added to lifestyle changes. It aims to see if this approach works better than lifestyle changes alone.
BerlinAges 35–75 - NCT06272578Recruiting
Heart and kidney health study for chronic disease patients
This study checks how heart and kidney health are related in people with kidney disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol. It is a single visit with tests to see if certain heart problems are common in these conditions.
Wedding, State of BerlinAges 18 years+ - NCT06297343Recruiting
Study of blood flow risk after fistula surgery
This study looks at the risk of a lack of blood flow (ischaemia) after creating an arteriovenous fistula, which is a small surgical connection made between an artery and a vein for dialysis. The goal is to better understand how often this problem happens and what factors might increase the risk.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT06320509Recruiting
Using urine oxygen to predict kidney recovery in shock
This study is testing if measuring oxygen levels in urine can help predict when kidney injury starts or gets better in ICU patients with shock. It aims to guide treatment earlier and avoid kidney damage.
AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT01893710Recruiting
Collecting children and adult belly fluid and tissue for kidney care research
This study collects samples from the belly (related to the peritoneal lining) to build a “biobank” for future research. It may help patients and families by improving understanding of kidney disease and kidney dialysis-related health issues.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 1 day–90 years - NCT06751602Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
