Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy for Acute Kidney Injury by Cooling Blood
Improving Outcomes in Patients Receiving Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy for Acute Kidney Injury by Cooling Blood in the Dialysis Circuit (CRRiTiCool): a Randomized Controlled Trial
Study Overview
Status
Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
This is a single center, prospective, randomized, open label, controlled trial comparing standard-of-care temperature management with blood cooling CRRT. We will recruit approximately 140 patients (70 in each group) from the Medical Surgical Intensive Care Unit at University Hospital and The Critical Care Trauma Center at Victoria Hospital in London, Ontario.
The study team will randomize patients with acute kidney injury requiring continuous dialysis therapy into one of two groups; either to standard of care continuous dialysis therapy or to cool blood continuous dialysis therapy. All therapy will be delivered using the Baxter PrisMaxTM CRRT machine with TherMaxTM blood warmer.
All participants will undergo a series of echocardiograms (ultrasound of your heart) prior to continuous dialysis therapy initiation, 4-12 hours into therapy, for up to 7 days after therapy initiation, and at discharge from the intensive care unit. Blood work will be collected at 4 time points, prior to continuous dialysis therapy initiation, 4-12 hours into therapy, 24 hours into therapy, and at ICU discharge.
Hourly nasopharyngeal and skin temperatures will be collected. Oral temperature will be collected every four hours.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
No Intervention: Control: Standard of care
Participants in the control group will receive standard-of-care CRRT prescriptions, and have the returning venous blood warmed with an external blood warmer to a temperature of 37°C.
The blood warmer temperature will be adjusted by the CRRT nurse as per usual practice to maintain normothermia.
|
|
Experimental: Intervention: Cooling
Participants in the intervention group will receive standard of care CRRT prescriptions and have the blood warmer set to 35.5°C, as long as the nasopharyngeal temperature remains above 35.5°C.
