NCT ID NCT03590028

What the study statuses mean

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
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing This study
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

Summary

This study tests whether a computer program that spots early signs of acute kidney injury can improve patient care. Hospitalized adults at risk are randomly assigned to get an early kidney specialist visit or standard care. The goal is to see if early specialist advice can prevent kidney function from worsening.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Early nephrology consultation triggered by a risk algorithm
What this could lead to
If it works, this could lead to a standard way to catch kidney injury early and prevent it from getting worse in hospital patients.
What could go wrong
This is a small, single-center trial with 180 participants, so results may not apply to all hospitals. The algorithm may not accurately predict risk for everyone.

Participants

About 180 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Started

Oct 2018

Expected to finish

Feb 2027

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Age \>18 years old 2. Initial ESTOP AKI score ≥0.01 within the last 8 hours. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Voluntary refusal or missing written consent of the patient / legal representative. 2. Patients with a known history of end-stage renal disease on dialysis (including renal transplantation). 3. Patients without a measured serum creatinine value during their inpatient stay. 4. Patients with a creatinine \>4.0 mg/dl at the time of admission or available in the electronic health record (EHR) from the last 6 months. 5. Patients with prior episode of Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) defined AKI during this same hospitalization- regardless of ESTOP AKI score. 6. Patients with prior renal consultation during their admission.
