Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

We hypothesize that a nutritional supplementation with higher than standard protein content (2.0 gm/Kg/day vs 1.4 gm/Kg/day) will result in improved whole-body net protein balance when administered to critically ill patients with acute renal failure (ARF).

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Adults ≥ 18 years of age admitted to the intensive care unit
* New onset acute renal failure (ARF) or ARF superimposed on chronic kidney disease
* ARF will be defined by a sustained (over 24 hours) increase in serum creatinine \> 0.5 mg/dl from baseline
* Patients will be recruited for the study within 3-5 days following establishment of ARF

Exclusion Criteria

* Institutionalized patient
* Previous kidney transplant
* Pregnancy
* Unable to obtain consent from subject or legally recognized representative
* ARF from urinary tract obstruction or a volume responsive pre-renal state.
* Liver Failure
* Recent cerebrovascular accident (CVA)
* Coagulopathy defined as: Platelets \< 50, PT \> 20, INR \> 2.0 if the patient requires the placement of an arterial or venous catheter; if the patient does not require the placement of an arterial or venous catheter for the study, coagulopathy will not be a basis for exclusion.
* Life expectancy \< 48 hours
