NCT02860130
The purpose of this research is to determine if an investigational new drug solution called Prismocitrate 18 lengthens extracorporeal circuit life in patients treated with continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). Patients who receive CRRT treatment with Prismocitrate 18 as the anticoagulant will be compared to patients who receive CRRT treatment with no anticoagulation.
NCT03954678
Patients who are being scheduled for an operative procedure with an inpatient postoperative stay are eligible for this study. Participants will be selected to start a physical fitness plan or a nutrition plan at the time of surgical scheduling. Each participant will be asked to continue their current lifestyle for two days after their pre-operative appointment to get a baseline of activity (by pedometer and functional tests) and nutritional risk (by questionnaire). After two days, patients in the activity group will start their activity plans. They will be encouraged to get 10,000 steps per day and to perform whole body strength training exercises 3 times a week. Five days before and after surgery, participants in the nutrition group will be asked to consume a standard liquid nutrition supplement (i.e. Boost or Ensure) two times per day. Participants in the activity group will record steps and number of strength training sessions completed, while patients in the nutrition group will record the number of supplements consumed.
