Kidney injury detection study pulled before it began
NCT ID NCT03974347
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study planned to test two new methods for spotting acute kidney injury early in adults after heart surgery. Researchers wanted to see if these methods could predict kidney damage better than current tools. However, the study was withdrawn before enrolling any participants, so no results are available.
