This study is looking at whether providing extra information to patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) who need dialysis after leaving the hospital, and to their kidney doctor (nephrologist), can be helpful. The study will measure your remaining kidney function when you leave the hospital by collecting your urine for 6-24 hours. Some participants will have these results shared with their doctor and themselves, along with advice on how often to monitor their recovery and when to consider dialysis twice a week. Other participants will have their urine collected, but these results won't be shared in the same way. This study aims to see if sharing this information is practical. You may be able to join if you are 18 or older, have AKI requiring dialysis (but not end-stage kidney disease), and are planning to continue dialysis outside of a short-stay hospital. The study plans to enroll 40 participants and its current status is unclear.

Study design

This is an interventional study that plans to enroll 40 participants. It compares two groups: one that receives additional information about kidney function and recovery, and another that does not.

What's involved

You would need to complete a timed urine collection (6-24 hours) within seven days before hospital discharge. The study does not specify other procedures or visits.

Compensation

Not stated in the trial record.

Follow-up

Feasibility is measured at Baseline, which is the time of hospital discharge. The study does not specify follow-up after this point.
