Fluid balance in acute kidney injury in intensive care
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at how giving fluids to critically ill patients with new kidney injury affects their recovery. It may help doctors decide the right amount of fluid for people with certain health conditions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older and in the intensive care unit (ICU).
- You did not have acute kidney injury when you entered the ICU.
- Your kidney injury is caused by low fluids, after surgery, or related to chronic kidney disease up to stage 3b or compensated heart failure.
- You do not have end-stage kidney disease, stage 4 or worse chronic kidney disease, or a history of dialysis.
- You are not readmitted to the ICU during the same hospital stay.
- You do not have signs of fluid overload like pulmonary edema, pulmonary embolism, or acute heart failure.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how to safely remove excess fluid from patients in the ICU who have sudden kidney failure and are on a special blood-filtering machine (CRRT). Researchers want to understand which patients have trouble tolerating fluid removal and how to prevent complications.
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 whether starting dialysis-related care early, aimed at improving blood flow to tissues, can help people in the ICU who have sudden kidney failure. It may help reduce problems related to poor tissue circulation, but it is very specific about ICU illness and current treatments.
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 looks at how urine output after being in the intensive care unit (ICU) can help detect early kidney problems. It may help doctors better monitor and protect kidney function in critically ill patients.
This trial tests whether giving albumin (a blood protein through an IV) can improve recovery after acute kidney injury in people who are in the ICU and need kidney support treatment. It mainly aims to help the kidneys bounce back better after this serious illness.
