U.S., Jan. 30 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT06799299) titled 'Collapsibility Index of the Inferior Vena Cava and Kidney Transplantation' on Jan. 23.
Brief Summary: Delayed graft function following renal transplantation is common occurrence and is associated with an increased risk of acute rejection and chronic allograft nephropathy. Post transplant patients are usually hyperhydrated to optimize renal blood flow and thus graft function. However, cardiac failure to respond adequately to volume expansion can lead to renal venous congestion and visceral interstitial sodium and water overload, both of which are associated with the delayed kidney graft function. To our knowledge, no predictive index...
