Simple ultrasound therapy can prevent acute kidney injury post surgery

 A simple and non-invasive ultrasound-based therapy might prevent acute kidney injury that commonly arises after major surgery, a new study has revealed.

Researchers found that a drug-free, non invasive  ultrasound-based treatment could prevent acute kidney injury in mice.

When they exposed anaesthetized mice to ultrasound with a routine clinical imaging system 24 hours prior to blood disruption to the kidneys, the mice exhibited preserved kidney health after blood flow was restored.


In contrast, sham-treated mice exhibited significant kidney injury. Further analyses revealed that the ultrasound treatment likely stimulated an anti-inflammatory response that originated from the spleen and was responsible for protecting the kidneys.
