Trial Outcomes & Findings for An Electronic Alert System for In-Hospital Acute Kidney Injury (NCT NCT01862419)

NCT ID: NCT01862419

Last Updated: 2015-03-25

Results Overview

This metric will be sequentially ranked. The provision of acute dialysis therapy will be ranked as a more severe outcome than the worst relative change in creatinine and death will be ranked as a more severe outcome than dialysis.
