First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This pilot study tests whether a structured discharge summary template and a chat-based educational messaging program can improve care transitions for adults leaving the hospital after acute kidney injury (AKI). Researchers will enroll 160 adults with moderate-to-severe AKI and compare usual care, the template, the chat program, or both. Participants will complete questionnaires and have a follow-up phone call to see if these tools help with understanding and follow-up care.
