- Limitations and caveats
Limitations include the fact that only three medication classes were targeted, that this trial was randomized at the patient level, which introduces the possibility of contamination, that it was conducted within a single health system, potentially limiting generalizability, that alert fatigue may have diminished alert performance as it was displayed in competition with all other alerts, and that the language of the alert was limited in how stringently it could recommend medication cessation.

Registered outcomes14
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Percentage of Patients With Progression of AKI OR Dialysis OR Death | 14 days from Randomization | Progression of AKI is defined by an increase in KDIGO creatinine stage from time of randomization to the present. Dialysis is defined by the receipt of hemodialysis, continuous renal replacement therapy or peritoneal dialysis. Isolated ultrafiltration treatments will not be included. Mortality will be determined from hospital records. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Patients for Whom Any One of the Targeted Medications is Discontinued | Assessed within 24 hours from randomization | The Percentage of patients for whom the targeted agent was discontinued within 24 hours from randomization. For individuals with active orders for more than one targeted agent, cessation of any will be adequate to meet this endpoint. |
| Secondary | 14- Day Mortality Rate | Assessed from date of randomization to date of death from any cause, within 14 days of randomization | Percentage of patients who expire within 14 days of randomization |
| Secondary | Inpatient Mortality Rate | Assessed from point of randomization to the date of death from any cause during the end of current index hospitalization, up to 365 days | Percentage of patients who expire during index hospitalization. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Patients Who Receive Dialysis Within 14 Days of Randomization | Assessed from point of randomization to date of first documented dialysis order, within 14 days of randomization | Receipt of hemodialysis, continuous renal replacement, or peritoneal dialysis within 14 days of randomization |
| Secondary | Percentage of Patients on Inpatient Dialysis | Assessed from point of randomization to the date of first documented dialysis order during index hospitalization, up to 365 days | Receipt of hemodialysis, continuous renal replacement, or peritoneal dialysis during index hospitalization |
| Secondary | Percentage of Patients Discharged on Dialysis | Assessed at the point of discharge from index hospitalization, up to 365 days post randomization | Active orders for dialysis at the point of discharge from the index hospitalization |
| Secondary | Percentage of Patients With AKI Progression From Stage 1 to Stage 2 | Assessed from date of randomization to date of documented AKI progression, within 14 days of randomization | Progression to stage 2 AKI, represented by a doubling of baseline creatinine levels. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Patients With AKI Progression From Stage 2 to Stage 3 | Assessed from date of randomization to date of documented AKI progression, within 14 days of randomization | Progression to stage 3 AKI, represented by a tripling of baseline creatinine levels. |
| Secondary | AKI Duration | Assessed from the point of randomization to the point of AKI cessation during index hospitalization, up to 365 days | Time in hours between AKI onset and AKI cessation during index hospitalization |
