NO During CPB in Neonates to Reduce Risk of AKI
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Acute kidney injury (AKI) following cardiac surgery for congenital heart defects (CHD) in children affects up to 60% of high risk-patients and is a major cause of both short- and long-term morbidity and mortality. Despite effort, to date, no successful therapeutic agent has gained widespread success in preventing this postoperative decline in renal function. Nitric oxide is an intricate regulator of acute inflammation and coagulation and is a potent vasodilator. The investigators hypothesize that nitric oxide, administered during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), may reduce the incidence of AKI.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- AKI [72 hours]
Incidence of AKI in the first 72 hours postoperative as defined by the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) diagnostic classification
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Biomarker evidence of AKI - NGAL [72 hours]
Incidence of structural AKI in the first 72 hours postoperative will be assessed by measurement of urine biomarker neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL)
- Biomarker evidence of AKI - KIM-1 [72 hours]
Incidence of structural AKI in the first 72 hours postoperative will be assessed by measurement of urine biomarker kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1)
- Biomarker evidence of AKI - IL-18 [72 hours]
Incidence of structural AKI in the first 72 hours postoperative will be assessed by measurement of urine biomarker interleukin-18 (IL-18)
- Biomarker evidence of AKI - L-FABP [72 hours]
Incidence of structural AKI in the first 72 hours postoperative will be assessed by measurement of urine biomarker liver-type fatty acid-binding protein (L-FABP)
- Biomarker evidence of AKI - urinary nitrite [72 hours]
Incidence of structural AKI in the first 72 hours postoperative will be assessed by measurement of urine biomarker urinary nitrate.
- Impact on GFR [72 hours]
Postoperative GFR measured using serum cystatin C.
- Low Cardiac Output [48 hours]
Incidence of low cardiac output syndrome (LCOS) during the first 48 hours postoperative
