Study Summary

This trial seeks to reduce AKI rates, dialysis and mortality by targeting AKI alerts to those most likely to benefit.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 who are hospitalized and have acute kidney injury (AKI) as shown by a significant rise in creatinine levels. It's not open to those already on dialysis, with very high initial creatinine, previous participation, hospice care, recent kidney transplant or opted out of health record research.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests if targeting AKI alerts using uplift modeling to patients most likely to benefit can reduce the worsening of AKI, need for dialysis, or death. The alert aims to prompt timely medical response when a patient's condition indicates risk.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this intervention involves an alert system rather than medication or surgery, traditional side effects are not applicable. However, there may be indirect effects related to changes in clinical management following an alert.

Timeline

Screening ~ 3 weeks
Treatment ~ Varies
Follow Up ~assessed from the date of randomization to the cessation of aki during index hospitalization, up to one year
This trial's timeline: 3 weeks for screening, Varies for treatment, and assessed from the date of randomization to the cessation of aki during index hospitalization, up to one year for reporting.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: RecommendedExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Those whose uplift score represents a probability of benefit greater than 0.5 will generate an alert, while those whose uplift score represents a probability of benefit less than 0.5 will not generate an alert.
Group II: Anti-recommendedExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Those whose uplift score represents a probability of benefit greater than 0.5 will not generate an alert, while those whose uplift score represents a probability of benefit less than 0.5 will generate an alert.
