Predicting acute kidney injury in children in the ICU
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study is testing a way to predict acute kidney injury (sudden kidney damage) in children admitted to intensive care. It looks at early signs to help doctors act sooner, which might prevent further kidney issues.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child is admitted to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) or Pediatric Cardiac Intensive Care Unit (PCICU).
- Your child is between 1 month and under 18 years old.
- Your child was not discharged from the hospital within the first 12 hours of admission.
- Your child does not already have acute kidney injury (sudden kidney damage) detected by blood tests 12 hours after being admitted.

This study looks at whether certain blood test results (triglyceride and glucose) can help predict acute kidney injury in ICU patients. It aims to find early warning signs so doctors can act sooner.
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 certain proteins in the urine (albumin) can help predict if a person with acute heart failure will develop sudden kidney injury while in the ICU. It aims to find early warning signs to improve care.
This study looks at what factors might predict acute kidney injury (sudden kidney damage) in people who come to the emergency room with acute decompensated heart failure (a sudden worsening of heart failure). The goal is to help doctors identify who is at highest risk so they can take steps to protect the kidneys.
This study is testing new ways to predict kidney problems after heart surgery. Researchers will look at special markers in the blood or urine to see if they can better identify patients whose kidneys may not recover well.
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.
