The EHR tool could predict kidney injury with an accuracy of 64.1 percent but resulted in no change in rates of acute kidney injury. The health systems partnered with data company Biome Analytics on the study, according to a Feb. 1 Biome news release. 

The study results were published in the American Heart Association’s journal.
