Brief Summary

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

This purpose of this pilot and feasibility study is to determine whether attending an acute kidney injury (AKI) clinic after discharge from the hospital impacts prescription medicine use, blood pressure and recovery of kidney function as compared to usual care.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Participants with moderate to severe acute kidney injury (AKI) who are discharged from participating centers (the University of Alabama at Birmingham Hospital, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, University of Kentucky) will be randomized to coming to a dedicated AKI clinic at one of the three recruitment centers for up to four visits over 3 months or usual care. At the visits to the AKI follow-up clinics, medicine reconciliation will be done, blood pressure will be measured, information on hospitalizations and other adverse events will be taken and blood and urine samples will be collected to check kidney function and store samples to measure biomarkers of AKI. Participants randomized to usual care will be contacted by telephone to review medications currently being taken and to collect information on hospitalizations and other adverse events. The primary outcome measures will be include both process of care and clinical outcomes.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Active follow-up

Participants randomized to the active follow-up arm will have follow-up visits in the AKI follow-up clinic every 4 weeks after discharge for a total of 90 days after discharge

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Medication reconciliation

Intervention Type OTHER

Medicines currently being taken will be reviewed and compared to the medicines that were prescribed at discharge.

Blood Pressure Management

Intervention Type OTHER

Blood pressure will be checked at follow-up visits and medicines will be adjusted if blood pressure is above target range (\>160/100)

Usual follow-up

Participants randomized to the usual follow-up arm will be called at home 4 weeks after the baseline visit to collect information on primary and secondary outcomes.

Blood Pressure Management

Intervention Type OTHER

Blood pressure will be checked at follow-up visits and medicines will be adjusted if blood pressure is above target range (\>160/100)
