First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Aug 06, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study tests whether a furosemide stress test can predict if acute kidney injury will get worse in ICU patients. Researchers will give furosemide to 140 patients and measure urine output over 2 hours. The goal is to see if the test can identify who will need dialysis, helping doctors make faster decisions.

- Active substance
- furosemide
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this test could help doctors predict which ICU patients with acute kidney injury will worsen and need dialysis, enabling earlier treatment decisions.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage study (140 participants) testing a diagnostic tool, not a treatment. The test may not accurately predict outcomes in all patients, and results may not apply to broader populations.
