Preventing kidney injury after liver cancer treatment
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study tests a nursing program to help prevent acute kidney injury (sudden kidney damage) in patients with liver cancer who are having interventional therapy (a procedure to treat the tumor). If you are at moderate or high risk for kidney injury after the procedure, this program may help protect your kidneys.
