Intervention Details:

Dose of Nesiritide infusion will be 0.005 ug/Kg/min

Other Name: BNP, Nesiritide

Detailed Description:

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled study of low dose nesiritide to prevent renal insufficiency after cardiopulmonary bypass surgery. Patients included are those with greater than mild renal insufficiency preoperatively as defined by having a creatinine clearance of less than 50 mL/minute determined by the Cockroft-Gault formula. The infusion of nesiritide (BNP) 0.005 mcg/Kg/minute or placebo begins 1 hour before surgery and runs for 24 hours started after the induction of anesthesia prior to cardiopulmonary bypass.

Eligibility


Ages Eligible for Study:	18 Years and older
Genders Eligible for Study:	Both
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:	No

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

Patients > 18 years old, undergoing cardiac surgery requiring cardiopulmonary bypass with baseline creatinine clearance < 50 ml/min and who are not dialysis dependent.

Exclusion criteria:

Cardiogenic shock or hypotension with systolic BP < 90 mmHg.
Patients with acute or chronic aortic dissection.
Patients who are enrolled in other studies that have an effect the renal function.
