Conexiant
October 29, 2024
A randomized clinical trial found that personalized recommendations for AKI did not significantly reduce worsening kidney injury, dialysis, or mortality.
The study involved 4,003 hospitalized patients with AKI, with a median age of 72 years and various comorbidities.
The intervention group had a higher implementation rate of recommendations (33.8%) compared to usual care (24.3%) within 24 hours.
No significant differences were observed between intervention and usual care groups for AKI progression, mortality, or dialysis initiation.
The median length of stay was similar between groups, with no statistically significant differences in peak AKI stage distribution.
