New study aims to solve diagnostic puzzle for kidney patients with lung fluid
NCT ID NCT07547852
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at why fluid builds up around the lungs in people with advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD). Researchers will test 100 adults to see if standard diagnostic methods work well for these patients. The goal is to improve accuracy so doctors can treat the right cause, whether it's fluid overload, heart failure, or infection.
