简要总结
The goal of the LIBERATE-D clinical trial is to improve outcomes for patients recovering from dialysis-requiring acute kidney injury (AKI-D). The impact of a conservative dialysis strategy compared to standard clinical practice of thrice-weekly dialysis will be examined to help generate knowledge for how to guide delivery of dialysis to facilitate renal recovery.
详细描述
Dialysis-requiring acute kidney injury (AKI-D) is a devastating complication among hospitalized patients for which there are no treatments other than supportive care. Recovery of sufficient renal function to stop dialysis is an unequivocally important clinical and patient-oriented outcome. Shortening dialysis duration and increasing the number of AKI-D patients who recover would have a major clinical, public health and cost-saving impact. However, there is currently no evidence to guide the delivery of dialysis to facilitate recovery. The investigators hypothesize that in patients who have AKI-D and who are hemodynamically stable, a conservative dialysis strategy--in which hemodialysis is not continued unless specific metabolic or clinical indications for renal replacement therapy (RRT) are present--will improve the likelihood of renal recovery compared with the current standard clinical practice of thrice-weekly intermittent dialysis. The investigators have conducted a pilot clinical trial to demonstrate the feasibility of this approach. The investigators propose here a 2-center randomized controlled trial to test a conservative dialysis strategy in a larger AKI-D population (N = 220).

研究组 & 干预措施
Conservative
Conservative dialysis strategy--dialysis prescribed only when specific metabolic or clinical indications are met. These indications are: blood urea nitrogen >112 mg/dL (40 mmol/L; blood potassium concentration >6 mmol/L; blood potassium concentration >5.5 mmol/L despite medical treatment; arterial blood gas pH <7.15, or in the absence of an available blood gas, serum bicarbonate <12 mmol/L, acute pulmonary edema due to fluid overload, responsible for hypoxemia requiring oxygen flow rate >5 L/min or equivalent via face mask/tracheostomy mask to maintain SpO2 >95% or requiring FiO2 >50% in patients with tracheostomy already on invasive or non-invasive mechanical ventilation and despite diuretic therapy; clinician judgement
干预措施: Dialysis (Procedure)
Conventional
Thrice-weekly intermittent dialysis until pre-specified criteria for recovery are met

结局指标
主要结局
Proportion of patients with renal recovery at hospital discharge
时间窗: Up to 14 days after hospital discharge (to allow for ascertainment of outcome at hospital discharge, which requires a period of sustained dialysis independence)
Alive and off dialysis at the time of discharge, with sustained independence from dialysis for 14 days. This outcome does not require that all 14 days of sustained independence occur in-hospital.
次要结局
- Number of dialysis sessions/week(Up to 28 days)
- Dialysis-free days to study day 28(Up to 28 days)
