Kidney filter study tests safer dialysis for acute kidney failure

NCT ID NCT07679568

First seen Jul 01, 2026 · Last updated Jul 01, 2026

Summary

This study looks at how well a specific kidney filter (multiFlux 160) works when used with two different blood thinners—heparin or citrate—during continuous kidney replacement therapy. The goal is to see which approach keeps the filter working effectively while avoiding side effects like electrolyte imbalances. The study includes adults and children with acute kidney injury who need this therapy.

What this could lead to

If successful, this study could help doctors choose the best blood thinner for kidney dialysis in critically ill patients, potentially improving treatment safety and effectiveness.

What could go wrong

This is a small observational study, not a large trial. It cannot prove which approach is better overall, and results may not apply to all patients with kidney injury.
