NCT00179166

Brief Summary

We hypothesize that a nutritional supplementation with higher than standard protein content (2.0 gm/Kg/day vs 1.4 gm/Kg/day) will result in improved whole-body net protein balance when administered to critically ill patients with acute renal failure (ARF).

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Adults ≥ 18 years of age admitted to the intensive care unit
  • New onset acute renal failure (ARF) or ARF superimposed on chronic kidney disease
  • ARF will be defined by a sustained (over 24 hours) increase in serum creatinine \> 0.5 mg/dl from baseline
  • Patients will be recruited for the study within 3-5 days following establishment of ARF

You may not qualify if:

  • Institutionalized patient
  • Previous kidney transplant
  • Pregnancy
  • Unable to obtain consent from subject or legally recognized representative
  • ARF from urinary tract obstruction or a volume responsive pre-renal state.
  • Liver Failure
  • Recent cerebrovascular accident (CVA)
  • Life expectancy \< 48 hours
