Monitoring urine output in cardiac ICU patients
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests a new device that tracks urine output after heart surgery to see how the body responds to fluids and diuretics. It may help doctors manage your recovery more closely.

This trial tests if using a special ultrasound score (VeXUS) to guide fluid removal can improve recovery in patients with acute kidney injury after heart surgery. It compares this approach to standard care to see if it leads to better outcomes.
This study uses ultrasound to help doctors decide how much fluid to give patients after heart surgery. It aims to improve recovery by checking if patients need more fluids.
This study compares two ways to manage fluid balance in ICU patients with acute kidney injury who are on continuous dialysis. One method uses a special ultrasound test to guide fluid removal, while the other uses standard care. The goal is to see which approach helps patients recover better.
This study looks at how well the kidneys and body handle stress during heart surgery. By checking blood tests before and after the operation, researchers aim to find ways to protect kidney function.
This trial tests an automated system that tracks urine output in ICU patients using a urinary catheter. It may help the care team notice important changes sooner and manage fluid needs more efficiently.
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.
