Study inflammatory signals in sudden kidney injury in ICU
Part of Infections, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at substances related to inflammation to better understand sudden kidney problems in people who are very sick in the ICU. It may help improve how kidney injury is predicted and treated after severe illness or major events.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are currently in an intensive care unit or a post-operative care unit
- Your ICU stay is because of one of these: septic shock, major surgery, or chemical poisoning
- You can provide informed consent (you or your legal representative)
- You are not pregnant
- You are not breastfeeding
- You do not have chronic kidney disease

This study looks at how severe infections like sepsis can hurt the kidneys. By using special scans (PET-CT), researchers hope to better understand why this happens, which could lead to better treatments.
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 trial looks at acute kidney injury that can happen during sepsis (a serious body-wide infection or suspected infection). It may help improve how doctors detect and manage kidney problems early, especially in intensive care or around major surgery.
This study follows adults who stay in the ICU for more than 24 hours to see how an episode of acute kidney failure affects kidney health over the long term. Your participation helps researchers understand which ICU patients may need closer kidney monitoring later.
This study measures a protein called uromodulin in the blood of patients with sepsis and acute kidney injury (AKI) to see if it can help predict outcomes. It aims to find a better way to assess kidney damage early.
This study looks for signs in blood or samples that could show early kidney damage after cardiac surgery. If the markers work, they may help doctors diagnose acute kidney injury faster and safer.
