Brief summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the effect of RenalGuard Therapy in reducing the rates of Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) within 72 hours after cardiac surgery in patients at risk of developing Cardiac Surgery Associated AKI (CSA-AKI) compared to standard-of-care (SoC). The study is planned to be conducted in 2 clinical sites in the Malaysia - Universiti Malaya Medical Centre and Institut Jantung Negara, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Participants will be randomized (1:1) to one of the two study groups. The Treatment study group will be managed with the RenalGuard System. The RenalGuard treatment will start after induction of anesthesiology and will run during surgery and for 6-7 hours in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). The treatment will aim to achieve a urine rate above a predefined urine rate threshold. Patients in the control group will be managed based on the usual clinical practice in cardiac surgery centres as detailed in the recommendations for CSA-AKI prevention by accepted clinical guidelines. For both study groups general anaesthesia, cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) run and overall patient care will be based on SoC for cardiac surgery. Patients will be followed up for up to 7 days post surgery or until discharge, which ever comes first. Long-term follow up will be performed at 90 days post surgery.

Exclusion criteria
1. Patient requiring emergency surgery 2. Surgery to be performed without CPB 3. Patient receiving furosemide at a dose\>100 mg/day orally (or the equivalent dose of an alternative loop diuretic) in the last week 4. Patient who cannot be urethrally catheterize for any reason 5. Patients already dialysis dependent 6. Patients with CKD-EPI eGFR \<20 mL/min/1.73 m² 7. Known or suspected AKI (KDIGO criteria) at the time of screening 8. IV contrast within 48 hours of surgery 9. Patients participating in another interventional drug or device study or have received an investigational drug or device treatment within the last 30 days 10. Pregnant patient, self-reported 11. Patients whose planned surgery to be performed under conditions of circulatory arrest or hypothermia with rectal temperature \< 28°Celsius (82.4° Fahrenheit) 12. Patient with suspected or confirmed bacteraemia, endocarditis, or pyelonephritis at hospital admission 13. Patients with pneumonia, aspiration, or bilateral pulmonary infiltrates from an infectious aetiology reported on chest x-ray or CT scan in the last 7 days 14. Patients in cardiogenic shock or hemodynamic instability which require inotropes or vasopressors or other mechanical devices (Impella, IABP) within 24 hours prior to surgery 15. Patients on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) or durable ventricular assist device (VAD) at the time of screening, or planned use within 24h prior to surgery 16.

Patients underwent major surgery within the last 3 months 19. Any condition which, in the judgement of the investigator, might increase the risk to the patient
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Incidence of cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI) occurring within 72 hours following surgery in the RenalGuard versus Control group | Within 72 hours | Rate of CSA-AKI as defined by the KDIGO definition i.e. as when any one of the following three criteria are met: 1. An increase in serum creatinine (SCr) by ≥0.3 mg/dl (≥26.5 umol/l) within 72 hours compared to the baseline value; OR 2. An increase in SCr by ≥1.5 times from SCr value at baseline within 72 hours; OR 3. Use of Renal Replacement Therapy (RRT) within 7 days of surgery or by hospital discharge |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| AKI severity as defined by KDIGO stage definition, with stage distribution between the study groups at 72 hours post-surgery AKI stage | 72 hours | The staging of AKI (KDIGO) is based on the following criteria: Stage 1 Increase ≥ 26 μmol/L within 72 hrs or Increase 1.5 to 1.9 times from baseline Stage 2 Increase 2 to 2.9 x reference creatinine Stage 3 Increase ≥3 X reference creatinine or increase 354 μmol/L or need for RRT |
