Influence Continuous Veno-venous Hemodialysis the Autoregulation (dARICUCVVH)

April 12, 2013 updated by: Patrick Schramm, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz

Influence of Continuous Veno-venous Hemodialysis on Cerebrovascular Autoregulation in Patients With Acute Renal Failure

The aim of the study is to characterize the influence of continuous veno-venous hemodialysis on the cerebrovascular autoregulation.

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Conditions

Detailed Description

Patients at the intensive care unit who suffered acute renal failure with the need of continuous veno-venous hemodialysis will be investigated with continuous veno-venous hemodialysis and in a time window without continuous veno-venous hemodialysis to investigate the influence of continuous veno-venous hemodialysis on the cerebrovascular autoregulation.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change from Baseline cerebrovascular autoregulation to cerebrovascular autoregulation during continuous veno-venous hemodialysis
Time Frame: 1 Year
Is there an influence of continuous veno-venous hemodialysis at the cerebrovascular autoregulation, which would be a side effect with limiting use in patients with brain injury or the need of intensive monitoring of cerebral perfusion pressure in this patients.
