Predicting kidney injury in adult ICU patients
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You are admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU).
- You have blood tests to check kidney function at the time of ICU admission and 24 hours later.
- You have a kidney function test result from within the 6 months before your ICU stay.
- You (or a legal representative) can provide written consent to participate.

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 how kidney ultrasound can help monitor critically ill patients who need continuous dialysis for acute kidney injury. The results may help doctors better manage treatment.
This study uses a risk score and blood tests to predict which hospitalized patients might develop acute kidney injury (sudden kidney damage). If you are at high risk, researchers will follow you closely to see if early detection can help prevent serious kidney problems.
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 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.
