Do electronic alerts for AKI improve outcomes?
Abstract
Automated, real-time alert systems have the potential to improve recognition and management of acute kidney injury (AKI). A recent patient-level, randomized controlled trial, however, demonstrated no effect of such a system on AKI progression, receipt of dialysis or death. These findings inform the future implementation and testing of AKI alerts.
