Understanding kidney emergencies in children
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tracks children who come to the emergency room with signs of kidney problems—like swelling, blood in urine, or high blood pressure—to learn how they're treated and what happens to them. By studying these cases, doctors hope to improve emergency care for children with sudden kidney issues.

This study looks at how a kidney-related blood-pressure system works in children and teenagers, comparing those with newly diagnosed primary (no known cause) high blood pressure to those with normal blood pressure. It may help doctors better understand childhood blood-pressure changes and guide future care.
This study looks at children admitted to the emergency unit at Assuit Children's University Hospital to understand why they came, how sick they were, and how they did. It aims to find patterns that can improve care for children in the ER.
This study looks for warning signs that help doctors predict which children in intensive care might develop acute kidney injury (sudden loss of kidney function). By identifying these risk factors early, doctors may be able to help prevent or manage kidney problems better.
This trial looks at how often children develop kidney problems after major surgery that isn't on the heart or kidneys. The goal is to learn more about these injuries and how to prevent them.
This study looks at the health records of people who needed emergency dialysis or a similar blood-filtering treatment in the emergency department. It aims to understand their outcomes, which may help improve care for people with sudden kidney failure.
This research study is collecting information about people with moderate to severe acute kidney injury (sudden kidney damage) who are treated in specialized kidney hospital units. The goal is to better understand how patients recover and what happens to their kidney function 3 months after admission.
