Standard vs. lower dose dialysis for kidney failure in intensive care
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are in intensive care with sudden kidney failure that needs dialysis.
- You are not already on long-term dialysis for chronic kidney disease.
- You do not have severe liver disease (Child-Pugh C).

This trial compares two different timeframes for changing filters during a critical kidney support treatment (CRRT) used when kidneys suddenly fail in hospitalized patients. The goal is to understand which filter-change schedule works better and reduces complications.
This study looks at using a blood thinner called citrate during continuous kidney dialysis (renal replacement therapy) in critically ill patients with acute kidney injury. It aims to see if this approach is safe and workable for patients whose bodies may not process citrate normally.
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 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 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 looks at how a type of continuous kidney dialysis, called CRRT, works in very sick patients in the intensive care unit. It may help doctors learn more about how to best care for people who need this treatment.
