What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Validation of biomarkers for Acute Kidney Injury Recovery in Blood or Urine.

    This study is a multi-center study intended to enroll enough subjects to validate biomarkers for acute kidney injury recovery. Subjects enrolled will be those with known moderate to severe AKI. The study is to determine the outcome of Major Adverse Kidney Event (MAKE) and Major Adverse Cardiac Event (MACE) during a period of up to 7 days.

    Measured: Day 1-7 of enrollment
