Kidney risk after low-blood-pressure anesthesia for jaw surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Heart & circulation, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at factors that may increase the risk of kidney injury during jaw surgery when a special low-blood-pressure anesthesia technique is used. It helps doctors understand who is more likely to have complications.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study compares two medications given during surgery to see which one better protects the kidneys after the procedure. If you are having major non-cardiac surgery that lasts at least 2 hours and you need medication to support your blood pressure, this trial may be a good fit.
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 tests if numbing the nerves around the kidney artery during laparoscopic surgery can better control high blood pressure. It is for people already needing surgery for certain kidney or adrenal conditions who also have hypertension.
This study looks at whether a patient's level of frailty (overall weakness and health before surgery) affects their risk of acute kidney injury after non-cardiac surgery, and whether blood pressure changes during surgery play a role in that link.
This trial tests whether noradrenaline is better than standard care for preventing dangerously low blood pressure during surgery. If you are having non-cardiac surgery that lasts at least an hour and are expected to stay overnight, this study may be for you.
This study tests whether breathing in a gas called nitric oxide during and after heart surgery can help prevent kidney damage. The treatment is given through a mask or tube to support kidney function.
