Brief Summary:
Acute kidney injury AKI is a common diagnosis in the emergency department ED and urinary tract obstruction is a contributing cause that requires rapid diagnosis and therapeutic management This observational study aims at assessing the accuracy of point-of-care ultrasound POCUS performed by the emergency physician EP for the detection of dilatation or distension of the kidney secondary to urinary tract obstruction in emergency department patients presenting with acute kidney injury AKI Participants will undergo a bedside POCUS of the urinary tract by the EP followed by central imaging evaluation by a radiologist either ultrasound or renal computed tomography CT or both Researchers will compare both diagnosis Study hypothesis is that trained emergency physicians can rapidly and reliably diagnose renal tract obstruction at POCUS in the context of AKI
Detailed Description:
Acute kidney injury AKI is a common diagnosis in the emergency department ED and urinary tract obstruction is a contributing cause that requires rapid diagnosis and therapeutic management Hydronephrosis is a dilatation or distension of the kidney secondary to urinary tract obstruction It can be diagnosed at ultrasonography or computed tomography Assessment of the renal tract and detection of hydronephrosis is a core component of the emergency medicine Point-of-Care Ultrasound Pocus curriculum The primary objective of this study is to compare the performance of point-of-care ultrasound performed by the emergency physician to that of central radiology imaging US or CT by a radiologist to diagnose hydronephrosis in patients presenting with AKI in the ED All imaging exams will be performed as part of routine evaluation Pocus will be carried out by a trained EP blinded from radiology imaging results
