Summary
This trial is testing how two different blood pressure target algorithms impact cirrhosis patients with acute kidney injury. Researchers will compare high and low MAP-target groups to see effects on MAP, AKI reversal, and adverse events.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for hospitalized cirrhosis patients with acute kidney injury, defined as a significant increase in serum creatinine from a baseline measured within the past year. They must have severe liver dysfunction (Child-Pugh Score ≥ 7). Those already on dialysis, lacking baseline creatinine measurements, needing high oxygen support, or with very high creatinine levels are excluded.
What is being tested?
The NEPH-ROSIS pilot trial is testing two blood pressure management strategies using medication to achieve either a low (<80 mmHg) or high (≥80 mmHg) mean arterial pressure target. The study will compare the effects on blood pressure control and reversal of acute kidney injury while monitoring for serious side effects like ischemia.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include risks associated with maintaining different blood pressure targets such as ischemic events due to restricted blood flow at lower pressures or complications from higher pressures. Medication-related side effects will also be monitored.

Trial Design
2Treatment groups
Active Control
Group I: Low MAP-TargetActive Control1 Intervention
This group will be randomized to a treatment algorithm that utilizes a low MAP-target (\<80 mmHg) to determine if titration of vasoconstrictors is needed.
Group II: High MAP-TargetActive Control1 Intervention
This group will be randomized to a treatment algorithm that utilizes a high MAP-target (≥80 mmHg) to determine if titration of vasoconstrictors is needed.
