Kidney injury after upper digestive tract bleeding
Part of Digestive system, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at whether people who come to the hospital with severe stomach or intestinal bleeding may also develop kidney problems while they are being treated. Researchers want to track how well the kidneys are working to see if the bleeding causes harm.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have signs of bleeding in the upper part of the digestive tract, like throwing up blood, coffee-ground vomit, or black stools
- Your bleeding is in the upper digestive tract (not lower)

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 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 people with acute (sudden) kidney injury, based on changes in a blood test called creatinine. By tracking these patterns during hospitalization, it may help improve how acute kidney injury is identified and managed.
This study helps doctors better assess how well kidneys recover after acute kidney injury (a sudden loss of kidney function during hospitalization). You may be asked to participate in interviews, workshops, or have some medical measurements taken to help improve patient care.
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 looks back at adults who visited certain hospitals in South Korea to understand what leads to acute kidney injury (a sudden drop in kidney function) and how it affects recovery. It compares people who had this condition with similar people who did not, to identify risk factors.
