Comparing Post Cardiac Surgery Outcomes in ESRD Patient's With Early Dialysis Versus Standard Care
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
End-stage renal disease (ESRD) is an important risk factor for coronary and valvular cardiac disease leading to cardiac surgery. with concern for higher post-op complications with volume overload and coagulopathies in this patient' outcomes as mentioned above in patients who receive early post-op dialysis versus hemodialysis on day 1 or thereafter.
ed for mechanical ventilation and rs of clinical course and mortality. Previous studies have demonstrated that presence of ESRD is an independent risk factor for post-operative respiratory failure and mortality in patients undergoing cardiac surgery, partially mediated through volume overload and prolonged mechanical ventilation, as well as coagulopathy attributed to platelet dysfunction and uremia.
Prolonged mechanical ventilation after cardiac surgery has been shown to be associated with higher morbidity and mortality. Fluid overload is a predictor of length of mechanical ventilation and intensive care unit (ICU) stay. Therefore early restoration of volume and electrolyte homeostasis and clearance of uremic toxins should be one of the principal goals in the immediate post operative period in patients with ESRD. However, to the best of our knowledge, the effect of timing of post-operative renal replacement therapy, specifically hemodialysis, on clinical outcomes has not been studied in ESRD patients undergoing cardiac surgery.
Accordingly, we have conducted this study to evaluate the effect of early population affecting their overall hospital course including longer duration of ICU stay, need for mechanical ventilation support and blood products transfusion we are planning to conduct this study and compare the short term hemodialysis treatment after cardiac surgery, on clinical outcomes related to volume overload and coagulopathy (i.e. duration of mechanical ventilation, transfusion requirements, and length of ICU stay) in patients with ESRD

Detailed Description
End-stage renal disease (ESRD) is an important risk factor for coronary and valvular cardiac disease leading to cardiac surgery. Both volume overload and coagulopathy in the immediate post-operative period after cardiac surgery are important predictors of clinical course and mortality. Previous studies have demonstrated that presence of ESRD is an independent risk factor for post-operative respiratory failure and mortality in patients undergoing cardiac surgery, partially mediated through volume overload and prolonged mechanical ventilation, as well as coagulopathy attributed to platelet dysfunction and uremia.
Prolonged mechanical ventilation after cardiac surgery has been shown to be associated with higher morbidity and mortality. Fluid overload is a predictor of length of mechanical ventilation and intensive care unit (ICU) stay. Therefore early restoration of volume and electrolyte homeostasis and clearance of uremic toxins should be one of the principal goals in the immediate post operative period in patients with ESRD. However, to the best of our knowledge, the effect of timing of post-operative renal replacement therapy, specifically hemodialysis, on clinical outcomes has not been studied in ESRD patients undergoing cardiac surgery.
Accordingly, we are planning to conduct this study to evaluate the effect of early hemodialysis treatment after cardiac surgery, on clinical outcomes related to volume overload and coagulopathy (i.e. duration of mechanical ventilation, transfusion requirements, and length of ICU stay) in patients with ESRD
Study Design
Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Experimental: Arm A group participants receive same day post-op dialysis Arm A group participants receive same day post-op dialysis |
Procedure: Hemodialysis
Renal replacement therapy is considered standard of care for end stage renal disease patients for clearing the blood and also helping with volume optimization, has different modalities, in our study we are using intermittent hemodialysis.
|
| No Intervention: Arm B group participants receive dialysis per standard care Arm B group participants receive dialysis per standard care |
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- length of mechanical ventilation [A minimum of 1 day up to 7 days]
the duration of mechanical ventilation related to pulmonary congestion in anuric end stage kidney disease patients affected by early dialysis and fluid overload optimization
- intensive care unit (ICU) stay [A minimum of 1 day up to 7 days]
following above, requirement for mechanical ventilation support and pulmonary edema affected by early dialysis helping fluid overload optimization and earlier weaning from ventilator, therefor shorter ICU stay
Secondary Outcome Measures
- blood product requirement postoperatively [A minimum of 1 day up to 7 days]
coagulopathy and platelet dysfunction in end stage kidney disease patients being corrected faster with early dialysis
