NCT ID NCT01544231
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 197 emergency room patients with rhabdomyolysis (severe muscle breakdown) to see if a blood test for a protein called NGAL could predict who would develop acute kidney failure within 48 hours. The goal is to help doctors identify high-risk patients earlier and start treatment faster.
