About
Biomarkers that provide an early indicator of kidney stress could be useful in clinical practice to detect silent episodes of acute kidney injury (AKI) or for early identification of subjects at risk of AKI. Two urinary biomarkers have been identified as early indicators of AKI. The NephroCheck® test is a commercially available test that uses these biomarkers, and this study assesses the use of these in reducing negative clinical outcomes for patients with sepsis-associated AKI. The study will enroll subjects diagnosed with sepsis, including septic shock, who will be randomly assigned to either receive NephroCheck®-guided kidney-sparing and fast-tracking interventions; or to receive current Standard of Care assessment and treatment.
NOTE: Participants are no longer being recruited to this study.
