Study on kidney injury after major surgery in children
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial looks at how often children develop kidney problems after major surgery that isn't on the heart or kidneys. The goal is to learn more about these injuries and how to prevent them.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 0 and 16 years old.
- You need to have a major surgery planned that lasts at least an hour.
- The surgery cannot be on the kidney itself or involve clamping kidney blood vessels.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at people with acute (sudden) kidney injury, based on changes in a blood test called creatinine. By tracking these patterns during hospitalization, it may help improve how acute kidney injury is identified and managed.
This study looks at a protein in the blood that may help predict kidney damage after heart surgery. It aims to find ways to protect kidney function during and after the operation.
This trial studies babies under 28 days old who have acute kidney injury (when the kidneys suddenly stop working well). It aims to better understand the condition in newborns in intensive care, which may help improve care and treatment.
This study looks at acute kidney injury in patients who are very sick in the intensive care unit (ICU). It may help doctors better understand and manage kidney problems in these patients.
This study looks at the healthcare costs of kidney injury after heart surgery. Researchers will review records of patients who had heart surgery at a specific hospital to understand how much kidney injury costs the health system.
This study tests a new light-based method to check kidney function right after heart surgery or imaging tests that use contrast dye. It aims to catch kidney damage early, so doctors can treat it sooner.
