This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting

Summary

This study follows 112 critically ill patients with pre-existing kidney disease who receive one or two doses of contrast dye for imaging. Researchers track kidney function, including acute injury and long-term decline, over six months. The goal is to understand how repeated contrast exposure impacts kidney outcomes in this vulnerable group.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
iodinated contrast dye
What this could lead to
If it succeeds, this could help doctors better weigh the risks of using contrast dye in patients with weak kidneys, potentially preventing further kidney damage.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial, so it cannot prove cause and effect. Results may not apply to all ICU patients.
