Kidney check: do current AKI tests really work in the ICU?
NCT ID NCT07624721
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 1416 very sick adults in the ICU to see how well different stages of acute kidney injury (AKI) match the kidneys' actual ability to filter waste. Researchers used a urine test to measure kidney function and compared two common ways to diagnose AKI: one based on urine output and the other on blood creatinine levels. They also explored how factors like treatments, age, and other health conditions affect this relationship.
