Blood Salt Levels and Kidney Function After Stroke Treatment
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at how blood salt imbalances and kidney function changes happen in stroke patients who receive emergency catheter-based treatment with contrast dye. It aims to understand which patients are at higher risk for kidney injury after this procedure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older
- You were diagnosed with acute ischemic stroke (sudden blocked blood vessel in the brain)
- You received endovascular therapy (catheter-based treatment) for your stroke between 2018 and 2026
- You had a stroke severity score (NIHSS) of 6 or higher when admitted
- You received contrast dye (iodinated contrast medium) during your treatment procedure
- Your kidney function before and after the procedure can be measured through blood tests

This trial tests if drinking beetroot juice can help protect your kidneys from damage caused by the dye used during heart procedures. It is for people hospitalized with a certain type of heart attack who are at moderate to high risk of kidney problems.
This trial tests whether using a much smaller amount of contrast dye for an invasive heart scan is safer for people with acute kidney injury (AKI). It may help reduce further kidney stress while still allowing doctors to look at coronary (heart) arteries.
This study tests if a simple blood test (cystatin) can detect kidney damage earlier in people with chronic kidney disease who receive contrast dye for imaging. It could help doctors act faster to protect kidneys.
This study helps doctors better assess how well kidneys recover after acute kidney injury (a sudden loss of kidney function during hospitalization). You may be asked to participate in interviews, workshops, or have some medical measurements taken to help improve patient care.
This trial compares drinking fluids by mouth versus receiving fluids through an IV to prevent kidney injury from CT contrast dye. It may be a good option if you have mild to moderate kidney disease and need a contrast CT while in the emergency department.
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.
