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.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryPercentage of Patients With Progression of AKI OR Dialysis OR Death14 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.
SecondaryPercentage of Patients for Whom Any One of the Targeted Medications is DiscontinuedAssessed 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.
Secondary14- Day Mortality RateAssessed from date of randomization to date of death from any cause, within 14 days of randomizationPercentage of patients who expire within 14 days of randomization
SecondaryInpatient Mortality RateAssessed from point of randomization to the date of death from any cause during the end of current index hospitalization, up to 365 daysPercentage of patients who expire during index hospitalization.
SecondaryPercentage of Patients Who Receive Dialysis Within 14 Days of RandomizationAssessed from point of randomization to date of first documented dialysis order, within 14 days of randomizationReceipt of hemodialysis, continuous renal replacement, or peritoneal dialysis within 14 days of randomization
SecondaryPercentage of Patients on Inpatient DialysisAssessed from point of randomization to the date of first documented dialysis order during index hospitalization, up to 365 daysReceipt of hemodialysis, continuous renal replacement, or peritoneal dialysis during index hospitalization
SecondaryPercentage of Patients Discharged on DialysisAssessed at the point of discharge from index hospitalization, up to 365 days post randomizationActive orders for dialysis at the point of discharge from the index hospitalization
SecondaryPercentage of Patients With AKI Progression From Stage 1 to Stage 2Assessed from date of randomization to date of documented AKI progression, within 14 days of randomizationProgression to stage 2 AKI, represented by a doubling of baseline creatinine levels.
SecondaryPercentage of Patients With AKI Progression From Stage 2 to Stage 3Assessed from date of randomization to date of documented AKI progression, within 14 days of randomizationProgression to stage 3 AKI, represented by a tripling of baseline creatinine levels.
SecondaryAKI DurationAssessed from the point of randomization to the point of AKI cessation during index hospitalization, up to 365 daysTime in hours between AKI onset and AKI cessation during index hospitalization
