Participant Flow

RELIEVE AKI is a multicenter, prospective randomized controlled trial. This study enrolled 99 patients into the study between July 5, 2022 - June 17, 2024 at UPMC and Mayo Clinic hospitals.

For this study, time of signing the informed consent will be the study enrollment time. There is no patient-level randomization in this trial. The randomization is at the ICU-level and based on study period of every two months.
