The rate of acute kidney injury (AKI) alert detection by the attending physicians was associated with the prognosis of patients with AKI.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Early identification of AKI was always considered to improve patients' prognosis. Some studies found that AKI early warning tools didn't affect patients' prognosis. Therefore, additional studies were necessary to explore the reasons.

Methods

This study was a secondary analysis of a multicenter randomized controlled trial that found electronic health record warnings for AKI did not influence patients' prognoses. Univariate, multivariate, subgroup, curve fitting, and threshold effect analysis were used to explore the association between AKI warnings detected by attending physicians and the patient's prognosis.

Results

A total of 6,030 AKI patients were included in the study. The patients were classified into two groups based on the rate of AKI alerts detect
