About this trial

This study aims to evaluate the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) among patients presenting with acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB) at Sohag University Hospitals, and to identify predictors associated with renal impairment in these patients.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Adult patients aged 18 years or older

Patients presenting with clinical features suggestive of acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB), including hematemesis, coffee-ground vomiting, or melena

Diagnosis of UGIB confirmed by upper gastrointestinal endoscopy or strong clinical evidence when endoscopy is not immediately available

Patients admitted to Sohag University Hospitals (medical wards or intensive care unit)

Disqualifiers

Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on chronic dialysis

Patients with a history of renal transplantation

Patients with advanced chronic kidney disease stage 5 (eGFR <15 mL/min/1.73 m²) not on dialysis

Patients with lower gastrointestinal bleeding

Trial population

Adult patients presenting with acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding and admitted to Sohag University Hospitals, including both ward and ICU patients, who meet the eligibility criteria and have available renal function data.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Incidence of Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) According to KDIGO Criteria

The incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) among patients presenting with acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB), defined according to KDIGO criteria based on changes in serum creatinine and/or urine output during hospitalization.

Time frame
From hospital admission through hospital discharge, up to 30 days

Secondary outcomes

1

Percentage of Patients Developing AKI According to Bleeding Etiology

Comparison of AKI incidence between variceal and non-variceal UGIB patients.

Time frame
Baseline (hospital admission) with AKI occurrence assessed through hospital discharge, up to 30 days
2

Change in Serum Creatinine Concentration

Serum creatinine concentration (mg/dL) measured at admission and during hospitalization to assess changes in renal function.

Time frame
Through hospital discharge, up to 30 days
