Preventing kidney injury after heart bypass surgery
Part of Heart & circulation, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests whether combining two natural supplements (CoQ10 and glutathione) can protect your kidneys during heart bypass surgery. It may help prevent acute kidney injury, a common complication after these procedures.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 70 years old
- You are scheduled to have heart surgery using a heart-lung machine (cardiopulmonary bypass)
- Your kidney function is normal or only mildly reduced (measured by a blood test showing GFR of 45 or higher)
- You do not have a single kidney or a kidney transplant

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 whether personalized care can prevent acute kidney injury (sudden kidney damage) after heart or major blood vessel surgery. If you are having planned heart valve repair, bypass, or aortic surgery, you may be able to join.
This study tests a treatment called RenalGuard to help protect your kidneys from damage that can happen after heart surgery. It may be helpful if you have certain risk factors like diabetes or kidney disease.
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 study tests whether taking coenzyme Q10 can improve chronic kidney disease in adults with moderate kidney function and higher urine protein. It also looks at safety, especially for blood pressure and potassium levels.
This study tests whether CoQ10 (a natural nutrient) can lessen harmful inflammation and help protect organs after cardiovascular surgery. If you qualify, you may receive CoQ10 during the surgical period and be followed for how your body responds.
