Kidney Support Treatment and ICU Hospital Stay Length
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at how continuous kidney support (a machine that helps filter waste when kidneys aren't working well) affects how long patients stay in the intensive care unit. Researchers want to understand if this treatment changes recovery time for critically ill patients.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You were admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU) in Sweden between 2010 and 2023
- You are or were critically ill—meaning you had a serious, life-threatening condition requiring ICU-level care
- You are 18 years old or older

This trial looks at how a type of continuous kidney dialysis, called CRRT, works in very sick patients in the intensive care unit. It may help doctors learn more about how to best care for people who need this treatment.
This study looks at how long it takes for patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) to recover from a sudden kidney injury (acute kidney injury). It aims to help doctors understand what factors affect recovery time, so they can better care for patients.
This study looks at the best timing for starting kidney support treatment (dialysis) in very sick people in the ICU. It may help improve outcomes by comparing different start times.
This study looks at whether kidney injury (a sudden drop in kidney function) affects how well and how quickly people in the ICU can come off a breathing machine. If you are on a ventilator and your kidneys are being monitored, this trial may help doctors understand your recovery.
This trial looks at different types of continuous kidney dialysis (CRRT) to see which best helps kidney recovery in ICU patients with sudden kidney injury. It also studies how the dose and timing of dialysis affect long-term kidney function.
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.
