Summary

The Recovery After Dialysis-Requiring Acute Kidney Injury (RAD-AKI) Pilot Study is a 2-arm randomized clinical trial of hospitalized patients with dialysis-requiring acute kidney injury (RAD-AKI), comparing conventional thrice-weekly intermittent hemodialysis dialysis (control) to a "conservative dialysis strategy" in which hemodialysis is not continued unless specific metabolic or clinical indications for RRT are present. The overall hypothesis is that the current practice of thrice-weekly acute intermittent hemodialysis for AKI-D masks evidence of renal recovery and may actually delay or preclude recovery. The primary objective of this pilot study is to assess the safety and feasibility of the proposed intervention and study design.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Conservative dialysis strategy

Participants will receive RRT only when meeting 1 of the following indications (patterned after the AKIKI trial's delayed RRT initiation arm): * Blood urea nitrogen \>112 mg/dL (40 mmol/L) * Serum potassium concentration \>6 mmol/L * Serum potassium concentration \>5.5 mmol/L despite medical treatment (e.g., bicarbonate, glucose-insulin infusion, albuterol, diuretics, sodium polystyrene sulfonate) * Arterial blood gas pH \<7.15 in a context of pure metabolic acidosis (PaCO2 \<35 mmHg) or in a context of mixed acidosis with PaCO2 50 mmHg despite medical treatment to reverse respiratory acidosis (e.g., naloxone), or in the absence of an available arterial blood gas, serum bicarbonate \<12 mmol/L * Acute pulmonary edema due to fluid overload, responsible for hypoxemia requiring oxygen flow rate \>5 L/min to maintain SpO2 \>95% or requiring FiO2 \>50% in patients already on invasive or non-invasive mechanical ventilation and despite diuretic therapy
