Cirrhosis-Acute Kidney Injury Cohort Study

The aim of this study is to figure out the ability of novel urinary biomarkers (which tell us information about your health) to predict response/progression of acute kidney injury in patients with liver disease. This Observational Non-Interventional Cohort Study (a study where people are observed over time but not given a study drug/treatment/procedure) will seek to determine if urine biomarkers of kidney injury help to predict the course and outcomes of acute kidney injury with standard medical care.
