Recruiting studies
- NCT05855954Recruiting
Early kidney protection during heart surgery
This trial looks at whether a specific heart-surgery technique (called CLCVP) can help protect kidney function soon after surgery. It is mainly for adults with otherwise normal kidney tests before certain types of heart operations.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT07022314Recruiting
Monitoring urine output in cardiac ICU patients
This trial tests a new device that tracks urine output after heart surgery to see how the body responds to fluids and diuretics. It may help doctors manage your recovery more closely.
Petah TikvaAges 18 years+ - NCT07017933Recruiting
Kidney support device for heart surgery patients
This trial tests a new device that helps support kidney function during heart surgery. It is for people with mild to moderate kidney problems who are having bypass or valve surgery.
Weston, FloridaAges 22–85 - NCT07013175Recruiting
Wise Choices in the Intensive Care Unit
This study looks at how decisions are made in the ICU. It may help improve care for adult patients in Swedish intensive care units.
StockholmAges 18 years+ - NCT06174610Recruiting
Kidney ultrasound for ICU patients on dialysis
This study looks at how kidney ultrasound can help monitor critically ill patients who need continuous dialysis for acute kidney injury. The results may help doctors better manage treatment.
Opole, Opole VoivodeshipAges 18 years+ - NCT06987604Enrolling by invitation
Dialysis intensity for high ammonia in liver failure
This trial tests if a higher intensity of continuous dialysis (CRRT) better lowers ammonia levels in patients with liver failure. It aims to find the best approach to reduce brain complications from high ammonia.
Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do SulAges 18 years+ - NCT06431919Recruiting
Adding statin to carvedilol for cirrhosis with heart problems
This trial tests whether adding a statin (simvastatin) to the usual heart medication carvedilol helps people with both cirrhosis and a related heart problem live longer and avoid serious liver complications.
ChandigarhAges 18–65 - NCT04968587Recruiting
Compare two ways to clean blood during dialysis
This study compares two methods for removing waste products from the blood in people who need dialysis. It aims to see whether one method works better or is safer during extra-renal (outside the body) blood purification.
MelunAges 18 years+ - NCT06921603Recruiting
Ultrasound-guided diuretics for heart failure
This trial tests whether using a bedside ultrasound to guide diuretic treatment improves outcomes in people hospitalized for worsening heart failure. It may help find the right dose of IV diuretics faster.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06889974Recruiting
Timing of kidney treatment in tumor lysis syndrome
This study looks at when to start kidney dialysis for patients in the ICU who develop tumor lysis syndrome (a rapid breakdown of cancer cells after chemotherapy that can harm the kidneys). It aims to find the best timing for this treatment.
AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT06615102RecruitingPhase 3
Testing if angiotensin II prevents kidney injury after heart surgery
This trial tests whether giving a medicine called angiotensin II during heart surgery can help prevent acute kidney injury (a sudden drop in kidney function). It is for adults having certain types of heart surgery who have a higher risk of kidney problems.
BerlinAges 18 years+ - NCT06696235RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing fast vs standard kidney therapy for heart shock patients on ECMO
This trial tests whether starting kidney replacement therapy faster or at the usual time improves outcomes for people with severe heart failure (cardiogenic shock) who are on a heart-lung machine (ECMO) and develop sudden kidney injury.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT03629977Recruiting
Timing dialysis in critically ill ICU patients
This study looks at the best timing for starting kidney support treatment (dialysis) in very sick people in the ICU. It may help improve outcomes by comparing different start times.
StockholmAges 18 years+ - NCT06537453Recruiting
Virtual home hospital with remote monitoring for kidney injury recovery
This trial tests a virtual home hospital program that lets you go home early with remote monitoring, if you have a new kidney injury and meet other criteria. The goal is to reduce time in the hospital and help you recover safely at home.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT06440759Recruiting
Filter Comparison for Septic Shock with Kidney Failure
This study compares two types of filters used during continuous kidney replacement therapy in patients with septic shock and severe acute kidney injury. The goal is to see which filter works better and is safer.
Kubang Kerian, KelantanAges 18 years+ - NCT06446739Recruiting
Low-dose vs standard-dose kidney therapy for ICU patients
This study compares two different doses of continuous kidney replacement therapy (CRRT, a type of dialysis) for patients in the intensive care unit with acute kidney injury. It aims to find out if a lower dose is as safe and effective as the standard dose.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT05988658Recruiting
Using scores and biomarkers to predict kidney injury in hospital patients
This study uses a risk score and blood tests to predict which hospitalized patients might develop acute kidney injury (sudden kidney damage). If you are at high risk, researchers will follow you closely to see if early detection can help prevent serious kidney problems.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06386796Recruiting
Using ultrasound to predict kidney trouble in high-risk patients
This study uses a simple ultrasound test (kidney artery scan) to see if it can predict kidney problems early in people who are very ill. It may help doctors protect your kidneys during your hospital stay.
Aswān, Aswan GovernorateAges 18–80 - NCT04144894Recruiting
Kidney ultrasound and health measurements for people without diabetes or high blood pressure
This trial looks at how well a “kidney ultrasound index” (a measurement from an ultrasound and health factors) can reflect kidney health. It may help researchers better understand which people are most likely to stay healthy and who may be at risk.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 19 years+ - NCT06369064Recruiting
Comparing dialysis methods for kidney injury in the ICU
This trial compares two types of dialysis (hemodialysis and hemodiafiltration) to see which is better at removing waste from the blood in ICU patients with sudden kidney failure. It may help doctors choose the best treatment for you.
NîmesAges 18 years+ - NCT03329313RecruitingPhase 2
Adjusting dialysis salt levels for ICU kidney injury
This study tests whether using a specific salt (sodium) level in the dialysis fluid affects outcomes for adults in the ICU with sudden kidney failure. It may help your care team optimize dialysis settings during acute kidney injury.
Montpellier, MontpellierAges 18–80 - NCT06179771Recruiting
Filter during dialysis or ECMO for severe illness
This study tests a special filter (HA380 column) used during dialysis or ECMO to remove harmful substances from the blood. It is for critically ill patients with severe infection, injury, or breathing problems who also need kidney or lung support.
Leicester, LeicestershireAges 18–65 - NCT06150742Recruiting
Nafamostat for dialysis patients who can't use heparin
This trial tests a new medicine called nafamostat to prevent blood clots during continuous dialysis (CRRT), for people who are at high risk of bleeding or can't take heparin.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - NCT06038162Recruiting
Kidney treatment for patients on ECMO
This study compares two ways of giving kidney dialysis to patients who are on a heart-lung bypass machine (ECMO). It aims to find which method works better for filtering the blood.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for kidney injury?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 204 recruiting kidney injury studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a kidney injury trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a kidney injury trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
