About this trial

The goal of this observational pilot study is to evaluate the investigational AK+ Guard™ software as a medical device (SaMD) for detection of moderate to severe hyperkalemia (serum potassium (K+) ≥ 6.5 mmol/L) in adults with chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Study objectives are:

* Arm 2A (Outpatient Diagnostic Accuracy): To generate a preliminary, real-world signal of the diagnostic performance of AK+ Guard™ when used in an ambulatory CKD cohort for identifying clinically significant hyperkalemia episodes (serum K+ ≥ 6.5 mmol/L) at the time of an outpatient laboratory draw. * Arm 2B (Remote Patient Monitoring): To assess participant compliance, usability, and end-to-end system reliability of AK+ Guard™ when deployed for daily remote monitoring of CKD patients outside the clinical environment for up to four weeks.
