Blood test to predict kidney injury in ICU patients
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study looks at whether a simple blood test (the ratio of platelets to albumin) can help predict if patients in the ICU will develop acute kidney injury (a sudden decrease in kidney function). If you are in the ICU, this test might help doctors detect kidney problems earlier and potentially improve care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU), for any reason.
- You are 18 years of age or older.
- You have a blood test measuring creatinine (a kidney waste product) within the first 48 hours of ICU admission.
- You do not have known chronic kidney disease or end-stage renal disease (kidney failure).
- You are not pregnant.
- This is your first time being in the ICU, not a repeat stay.

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 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 tracks how often kidney problems occur in ICU patients. By watching your kidney function during your stay, researchers hope to better understand and prevent kidney injury in critically ill people.
This study uses artificial intelligence (AI) to predict if critically ill patients in the ICU will develop acute kidney injury (sudden kidney failure). It looks at your medical data to spot early signs and help doctors act faster.
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 looks at whether a certain pressure measurement can predict if you might develop a sudden kidney problem while in the ICU. It is an observational study, meaning no extra treatments are given, but the information may help doctors identify risks earlier.
