The effects of norepinephrine infusion combined with goal-directed fluid therapy on delayed graft function in patients undergoing kidney transplantations: study protocol for a multicenter randomized controlled trial

Paper No results yet Not peer reviewed

Key takeaways

This is the written plan for a trial that has not reported anything yet. Across several hospitals, it will test whether norepinephrine, a drug that raises blood pressure, given along with carefully guided fluids during a kidney transplant, helps the new kidney start working sooner. A slow-starting kidney means the person still needs dialysis after surgery. There are no results yet.
