Study tracking kidney injury using blood creatinine changes
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at people with acute (sudden) kidney injury, based on changes in a blood test called creatinine. By tracking these patterns during hospitalization, it may help improve how acute kidney injury is identified and managed.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You were diagnosed with sudden kidney injury based on changes in blood creatinine (KDIGO 2012 criteria)
- You have creatinine blood test results at least twice during your hospital stay
- You do not already have end-stage kidney disease (kidney failure stage 5)
- You have not had a kidney removed (nephrectomy) and have not had a kidney transplant
- Your highest creatinine level is at least 53 µmol/L
- Your creatinine cannot be changing only because of amputation (it should not decrease after amputation)

This study looks at whether certain blood tests can help predict if a patient in the intensive care unit (ICU) will develop acute kidney injury (a sudden loss of kidney function). It may help doctors detect kidney problems earlier and improve care for ICU patients.
This study looks at acute kidney injury in patients who are very sick in the intensive care unit (ICU). It may help doctors better understand and manage kidney problems in these patients.
This study tests whether a simple scoring tool can help doctors predict which ICU patients may develop kidney problems. It may help identify patients at risk early so they can receive closer monitoring.
This study helps doctors better assess how well kidneys recover after acute kidney injury (a sudden loss of kidney function during hospitalization). You may be asked to participate in interviews, workshops, or have some medical measurements taken to help improve patient care.
This study looks back at adults who visited certain hospitals in South Korea to understand what leads to acute kidney injury (a sudden drop in kidney function) and how it affects recovery. It compares people who had this condition with similar people who did not, to identify risk factors.
This trial looks at how often children develop kidney problems after major surgery that isn't on the heart or kidneys. The goal is to learn more about these injuries and how to prevent them.
