About this trial

The study aims to evaluate whether preoperative albumin supplementation in pediatric patients with hypoalbuminemia undergoing cardiac surgery can reduce inflammatory responses and prevent acute kidney injury (AKI) following cardiopulmonary bypass.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Pediatric patients under 7 years of age undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass

Preoperative serum albumin level of 4.0 g/dL or lower

Disqualifiers

abnormal preoperative creatinine level

history of dialysis

liver dysfunction

diabetes

Trial design

Design model

Parallel

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Albumin solution

    Drug

    A 20% albumin solution is administered over one hour starting from the induction of anesthesia, using the following formula: (4.0-preoperative serum albumin (g/dL))×plasma volume (kg×0.65-0.8 dL)

  • Crystalloid solutions

    Drug

    The same volume of crystalloid solution as the administered albumin is infused.
