Check hemodilution’s effect on urine kidney stress markers
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests a technique used during planned heart bypass surgery to see whether it changes substances measured in urine that reflect kidney stress or injury. If you have upcoming elective bypass surgery, your team may collect blood and urine samples to study how your kidneys respond.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for elective (planned) coronary artery bypass graft surgery
- You are between 18 and 70 years old
- Your heart-lung machine time is expected to be under 2 hours
- You weigh more than 70 kilograms
- Your blood hemoglobin is higher than 12 g/dL before surgery

This study is testing new ways to predict kidney problems after heart surgery. Researchers will look at special markers in the blood or urine to see if they can better identify patients whose kidneys may not recover well.
This study tests whether a special way of running the heart-lung bypass machine during planned heart surgery can help protect your kidneys and reduce the risk of kidney injury after the operation.
This trial tests a new way to manage fluids during heart surgery with the goal of protecting your kidneys. It uses a special device to guide fluid levels and checks early signs of kidney injury.
This study looks for signs in blood or samples that could show early kidney damage after cardiac surgery. If the markers work, they may help doctors diagnose acute kidney injury faster and safer.
This trial tests a targeted way to manage blood pressure before and after off-pump heart bypass surgery, with the goal of reducing acute kidney injury (sudden kidney problems). It may help some people by lowering stress on the kidneys during and right after surgery.
This trial studies ways to control the “pulsatility” (how the blood pressure pulses during circulation) while you are on a heart-lung bypass machine. It may help improve safety and heart function during planned heart surgery.
