Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The Strength study aim to evaluate the use of the RenalGuard device to protect the patients at high risk to develop acute kidney injury following a complex cardiovascular intervention requiring a high volume of contrast.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The Strength Trial is a randomized, international (France and Germany) and multicentre (7) trial.

The patients population targeted is suffering from kidney insufficiency (estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) between 15 to 40 ml/min/m2) need to go through a complex cardiovascular intervention..

This is a population of patients at high risk to develop AKI following contrast media administration and complex cardiovascular interventions require a high amount of contrast.

Standard treatment is hydration but with risk of hyper and hypohydration for this population of patients. RenalGuard insure the replacement of the urine output by infusion of a matched volume of sterile replacement solution to maintain patients' intravascular fluid volume.

The patients are randomized to be protected from contrast-induced nephropathy with the use of RenalGuard or by standard hydration treatment and will be followed-up during 12 months.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

RenalGuard Arm

In order to prevent patients from acute kidney injury, patients will receive the RenalGuard Therapy delivered by the RenalGuard system from one hour before the cardiovascular intervention to 4 hours after the intervention.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

RenalGuard

Intervention Type DEVICE

Replacement of urine output by infusion of a matched volume of sterile replacement solution to maintain a patient's intravascular fluid volume. Diuretic is administered to reach an optimum urine flow and protect efficiently the patients' kidneys.

Control Arm

Patient will received standard treatment, as per ESC Guidelines 2014, to prevent from acute kidney injury.
