Measurement-aware identification of 48-hour acute kidney injury persistence

Key takeaways

This work tests a better way to tell whether sudden kidney injury has lasted past 48 hours. Sudden kidney injury (acute kidney injury, or AKI) is a fast drop in how well the kidneys clean the blood, and the longer it lasts the higher the odds of lasting damage. Blood tests are not drawn on a fixed schedule, so timing alone can make injury look longer or shorter than it really was. This is an unreviewed posting with no abstract, so the number of patients and the findings are not available here, and any pattern it reports would be a link rather than proof of cause.
