Research Recommendations
Research recommendations
-
Determine clinical parameters (e.g., parameters of kidney function, fluid overload, hypercatabolism) that predict successful discontinuation of RRT in AKI patients.
-
Determine biomarkers that may indicate renal recovery, and whether their levels can be used to guide discontinuation of RRT.
-
Determine more reliable predictors of long-term outcomes (e.g., mortality, quality of life) in AKI patients (including clinical severity scores, biomarkers, machine learning techniques, or combinations of these), that— after validation in large cohorts—could be helpful adjuncts in the decision to withdraw treatment.
