Clinical Trial: Evaluation of the Efficacy of Ischemic Preconditioning to Protect Against Acute Kidney Injury After Open Surgery for Juxtarenal Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm

U.S., March 3 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07441564) titled 'Evaluation of the Efficacy of Ischemic Preconditioning to Protect Against Acute Kidney Injury After Open Surgery for Juxtarenal Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm' on Feb. 13.

Brief Summary: Juxta-renal abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) are challenging to treat with standard endovascular techniques (EVAR) due to their proximity to the renal arteries. Open surgical repair continues to be used in patients unsuitable for EVAR but carries a high risk of acute kidney injury (AKI), up to 24%. Postoperative AKI is a strong predictor of both short- and long-term cardiovascular mortality. The KDIGO criteria are used to better define and stage AKI. Pha...
