Brief summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the occurrence of acute kidney injury (AKI) in inpatients when information from the 'PRIME solution' (AKI prediction program utilizing artificial intelligence) is provided. The main questions it aims to answer are: •\[When Artificial intelligence (AI) provides information regarding AKI occurrence prediction within 48 hours, what would change in the physician's behavior?\] •\[If provided with AI information, what would be the incidence of AKI, severe AKI (stage 2 or 3), kidney replacement therapy, and changes in mortality during hospitalization?\] In the case of the intervention group that receives AI information, autonomous treatment is conducted by referring to AI prediction information. Researchers will compare it with a usual-care group that does not receive AI prediction results.

Detailed description

The investigators designed a prospective, investigator-initiated, single-center, single-blinded, randomized controlled study with two experimental groups. A total of 1438 participants with hospitalized patients will be enrolled and randomized into two groups; intervention or usual-care groups. The investigators will apply an AKI prediction model based on the patient's demographic. The investigators will collect data on vital signs, laboratory test results, medication history, and surgical records. The investigators provide information on whether AKI develops within 48 hours and the top 10 explanatory factors for predicting AKI to the physician. The intervention group receives the prediction results daily until the patient is discharged or up to 7 days after admission. The usual-care group does not receive analysis results.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
physician's behavior changeFrom the date of radomization until the patient is discharged or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 8 days after admissionPhysician's pattern of care changed after receiving AI prediction information The primary category of outcomes was the change in clinicians' behavior, including clinicians' medical treatment patterns, instances of overlooked AKI, and clinicians' consultation patterns. Medical treatment patterns of clinicians were classified into the following 5 categories: Patient assessment, Review of medication, Imaging workup, Monitoring hemodynamic stability, Evaluate furthermore. Overlooked AKI was defined as the absence of a follow-up Scr measurement within 2 weeks after AKI. Consultation to the nephrology division was classified into the following 3 outcomes: no consultation, early consultation, and late consultation. Early consultation was defined as consultation within 3 days from the AKI prediction. Consults issued more than 3 days after the AKI prediction were considered late consultations.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
incidence of AKIFrom the date of randomization until the patient is discharged or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 8 days after admissionAKI is defined as any of the following (NotGraded): * Increase in SCr by ≥ 0.3mg/dl (≥26.5umol/l) within 48 hours;or * Increase in SCr to ≥1.5 times baseline, which is known or presumed to have occurred within the prior 7days; or * Urine volume \< 0.5ml/kg/h for 6hours.
severe AKI (stage 2 or 3)From the date of randomization until the patient is discharged or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 8 days after admissionstage 2: Serum creatinine (SCr) 2.0-2.9 times baseline or Urine output \< 0.5ml/kg/h for ≥12hours stage 3: Serum creatinine 3.0 times baseline or increase in serum creatinine to ≥ 4.0 mg/dl or initiation of renal replacement therapy or Urine output \< 0.3ml/kg/h for ≥24hours or Anuria for ≥ 12 hours
renal replacement therapyFrom the date of randomization until the patient is discharged or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 8 days after admissionPatients who underwent renal replacement therapy
deathFrom the date of randomization until the patient is discharged or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 8 days after admissionpatient who died during hospitalization
