Summary

This study tests whether a common blood pressure medication (angiotensin receptor blocker) can prevent serious heart problems and kidney decline in patients who had acute kidney injury while in the intensive care unit. About 508 adults aged 18–75 will receive either the drug or a placebo for one year after leaving the ICU. The goal is to see if the drug reduces the risk of heart failure, stroke, heart attack, and chronic kidney disease.
