Hidden kidney boost may undermine brain injury meds

NCT ID NCT07410624

Summary

This study aims to understand a condition called 'augmented renal clearance,' where the kidneys work faster than normal, in patients with severe brain injuries, strokes, or infections. Researchers will measure kidney function and drug levels in over 500 adult ICU patients to see if this condition causes medications to be cleared too quickly, leading to under-dosing. The goal is to gather information to help doctors better identify this condition and adjust medication doses to improve treatment success.
