NCT ID NCT06995222

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
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tests whether a non-invasive ultrasound measurement called the renal resistive index (RRI) can predict if acute kidney injury (AKI) will progress to a severe stage in intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Researchers will measure RRI in 120 adults with early-stage AKI within 24 hours of ICU admission and track their kidney function daily. The goal is to see if RRI can identify patients who may need renal replacement therapy (dialysis) and to assess its link to mortality at 14 and 28 days.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Renal resistive index measurement using Doppler ultrasound
What this could lead to
If effective, this non-invasive ultrasound measure could help doctors predict which ICU patients with kidney injury will worsen and need dialysis, enabling earlier intervention.
What could go wrong
The trial is relatively small and early, and the renal resistive index's reliability in this setting is debated. It may not accurately predict outcomes for all patients.
