Renal Doppler to predict kidney injury in ARDS patients
Part of Kidney & urinary, Lungs & breathing, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study uses a non-invasive ultrasound of the kidneys (renal Doppler) to see if it can predict acute kidney injury—sudden kidney damage—in patients who are on a ventilator for ARDS. If you qualify, you will help doctors learn a safer way to monitor kidney health.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You are in the intensive care unit with a diagnosis of ARDS (a serious lung condition that makes it hard to breathe).
- You have started on a breathing machine (ventilator) within the last 48 hours, or your doctor has decided you need one.
- You are expected to live for more than 24 hours.
- You (or your legal representative) have signed a form saying you understand and agree to take part.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how the way a breathing machine (ventilator) is used might affect the kidneys in patients with severe lung injury. It aims to find patterns that could prevent kidney damage.
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.
This trial tests ways to protect the kidneys in intensive-care patients who have moderate or severe acute kidney injury. If you are on a ventilator or medications to support blood pressure, this study may offer extra kidney care to help prevent further damage.
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.
This study tests if using a special ultrasound (Doppler) to check blood flow in the kidneys can help predict and manage sudden kidney damage in patients in the intensive care unit. It aims to find a safer way to monitor kidney health without invasive tests.
This study tests whether a special ultrasound with a contrast dye can help doctors better assess acute kidney injury (a sudden drop in kidney function) in patients in the intensive care unit. If you or your loved one has been diagnosed with acute kidney injury within 24 hours of ICU admission, this imaging test may help guide care.
