Amnioinfusion for Fetal Renal Failure

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 20 Dec 2024 · Not updated for over 12 months - ask the site whether it is still open

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if serial amnioinfusions can improve the chances of survival for fetuses with severe kidney problems that cause low amniotic fluid (anhydramnios). Low amniotic fluid can affect lung development and may lead to serious health issues for the fetus. The main questions this study aims to answer are: * Can serial amnioinfusion increase the chances of survival for these fetuses? * Does this procedure improve chances of survival until dialysis and/or kidney transplant? Participants will: * Receive regular amnioinfusions, which is a procedure that adds fluid to the amniotic cavity. * Undergo monitoring to check the effects on the fetus and mother. This study will help researchers understand if amnioinfusion is a useful treatment for fetal kidney problems and may provide valuable information for similar cases in the future.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Other illness

  • No fatal findings on Karyotype (e.g trisomy 13, or 18) or Microarray fatal findings excluding those that are related to pulmonary hypoplasia due to fetal renal failure (e.g. Meckel-Gruber, PCKD).
  • Severe maternal medical condition in pregnancy.

Other

  • Cervix less than 2.5 cm in length.
  • Other significant congenital anomalies in the fetus.
  • Evidence of chorioamnionitis or abruptio placentae.
  • Evidence of rupture of membranes or chorionic-amniotic separation.
  • Evidence of preterm labor.
  • Multiple gestation.
  • Clinically diagnosed maternal depression, psychoses, or anxiety that are refractory to treatment.
  • Technical limitations precluding amnioinfusion.
