Adjusting dialysis salt levels for ICU kidney injury
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are over 18 years old.
- You have sudden (acute) kidney injury that requires dialysis using a machine treatment called online sustained low efficiency dialysis—filtration.
- Your ICU illness severity score (SOFA score) is above 5.
- Your current blood sodium level is between 135 and 145 mmol/L.
- You are not in late-stage long-term kidney disease (stage IV or V).

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.
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.
This study looks at how fluid levels affect kidney injury in ICU patients. It may help doctors find the best way to manage fluids for people whose kidneys get injured during their ICU stay.
This trial looks at different types of continuous kidney dialysis (CRRT) to see which best helps kidney recovery in ICU patients with sudden kidney injury. It also studies how the dose and timing of dialysis affect long-term kidney function.
This trial compares the usual dose of continuous dialysis with a lower dose to see if a lower dose is just as safe and effective for critically ill patients with sudden kidney failure.
This trial looks at whether starting dialysis-related care early, aimed at improving blood flow to tissues, can help people in the ICU who have sudden kidney failure. It may help reduce problems related to poor tissue circulation, but it is very specific about ICU illness and current treatments.
