Incarcerated, institutionalized, or otherwise unable to participate in the study within a home, community, or clinical setting.

In the TRIBE-AKI consortium, pre-operative serum creatinine results from an IDMS-traceable assay obtained within seven days before cardiac surgery can be used to define "baseline" kidney function for the subset of participants who are undergoing non-urgent cardiac surgery.

For pediatric participants in TRIBE-AKI, a pre-operative serum creatinine concentration measured in the local hospital clinical laboratory among patients scheduled for elective cardiac surgery.

Hospitalization involving acute nephrectomy.

 

History of multiple myeloma.

Predicted survival of 12 months or less as determined by the participant's treating physician or Clinical Research.

 

Center Principal Investigator.

 

AKI participants who remain hospitalized 90 or more days after the AKI episode.

 

ESRD at the time of the three-month study visit.

 

Unable to provide at least 1.5 mL of plasma for adults at the Inpatient visit.

 

Unable to provide at least 3 mL of urine for adults at the Inpatient visit.

 

Unable to provide at least 10 mL of blood for adults and 1 mL of blood for children at the three-month visit.
