NCT07397663

Brief Summary

This prospective observational study aims to evaluate the ability of transthoracic echocardiographic and bedside ultrasonographic parameters to predict intradialytic hypotension and hemodynamic instability at the initiation of continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration (CVVHDF) in adult intensive care unit patients.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Hemodynamic Instability During CVVHDF Initiation

    Occurrence of hypotension (mean arterial pressure \<65 mmHg), requirement for fluid bolus (≥500 mL), or initiation/increase of vasopressor or inotrope support within the first 60 minutes after CVVHDF initiation.

    First 60 minutes after CVVHDF initiation

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • LVOT Velocity Time Integral

    Before CVVHDF initiation

  • Mitral Annular Plane Systolic Excursion (MAPSE)

    Before CVVHDF initiation

  • Tricuspid Annular Plane Systolic Excursion (TAPSE)

    Before CVVHDF initiation

  • Pulse Pressure Variation (PPV)

    Before CVVHDF initiation

  • Renal Resistive Index (RRI)

    Before CVVHDF initiation

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

The study population consists of adult patients (aged 18 years and older) admitted to the intensive care unit of a tertiary care academic hospital who have a clinical indication for continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration (CVVHDF). All participants are critically ill and require renal replacement therapy as part of standard clinical care. Transthoracic echocardiography and bedside ultrasonographic and hemodynamic assessments are performed as part of routine intensive care evaluation and are recorded for observational purposes only. No healthy volunteers are included in this study. Written informed consent is obtained from the patients' legal representatives prior to study inclusion.

You may qualify if:

  • Adult patients (≥18 years) admitted to the intensive care unit
  • Indication for continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration
  • Adequate transthoracic echocardiographic image quality
  • Written informed consent obtained from legal representatives

You may not qualify if:

  • Acute coronary syndrome
  • Severe valvular heart disease or pericardial effusion
  • Significant arrhythmias interfering with Doppler measurements
  • Presence of pacemaker, ICD, or ventricular assist device
  • Poor echocardiographic imaging window
  • Life expectancy less than 24 hours
