Furosemide Stress Test Predicting Early Graft Function in Kidney Transplantation

Furosemide is an old drug that has been used frequently in the postoperative period of kidney transplantation, aiming to achieve adequate urine output. There is no previous study that directly evaluate the urine response to standardized dose of furosemide in the postoperative period. The objective is to measure the urine output after standardized dose of furosemide is delivered, as a biomarker to predict the graft function in perioperative period.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Deceased donor kidney transplantation at KCMH
  • informed consent is accepted

Exclusion criteria

  • Known allergy to furosemide
  • Surgical complication of allograft
  • Urgently needed for dialysis (refractory hypervolemia, uremic symptoms, and hyperkalemia)

Treatment and study plan

Furosemide Injection

Drug

Furosemide 1.5 mg/kg intravenously at 3 hours post-reperfusion of kidney allograft

Primary outcomes

  1. Urine output

    Time frame: 6 hours

    Urine output per hour (milliliters/hour) after furosemide injection

Secondary outcomes

  1. Delayed graft function

    Time frame: 7 days

    Delayed graft function is defined by the necessity of dialysis within the first week after kidney transplantation. (yes/no)

  2. Creatinine reduction ratio

    Time frame: At postoperative day 0,7 and 14

    Ratio of serum creatinine at postoperative day 7 and 14 to day-zero creatinine
