Funded Activity Summary

The study builds on strong existing NHMRC funded collaborative links between Sri Lanka and Australia in research which has reduced mortality and provided better evidence for treatment of poisoning. Current measurements of kidney damage are slow to change and insensitive. We will study new ways to measure acute kidney toxicity in people with poisoning and snakebite. We aim to determine whether these new measures are better predictors of the short and long term effects on the kidney.
