Clinical Trial: Diastolic Shock Index for Predicting Hemodynamic Instability During Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy

U.S., Nov. 6 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07918742) titled 'Diastolic Shock Index for Predicting Hemodynamic Instability During Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy' on Nov. 01.

Brief Summary: Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is commonly used in critically ill patients with acute kidney injury. A frequent complication of CRRT is a drop in blood pressure that requires treatment, known as CRRT-associated hemodynamic instability. This complication is linked to higher mortality and poorer kidney recovery.

The diastolic shock index (DSI) is a simple bedside measure calculated by dividing heart rate by diastolic blood pressure. It requires no additional devices, blood tests or invasive ...
