• People whose kidneys were filtering at a healthy rate (above a certain threshold) before surgery, as measured by a blood test
• People whose blood potassium level was below a certain level before surgery
• People who prepare more than 90% of their meals at home, based on self-report
• People whose other (remaining) kidney was functioning normally at the screening stage
• People whose heart, lungs, and liver were functioning normally at the time of assessment

Who may not be able to join:

• People, or their family members living with them, who are currently taking or have previously used certain water tablets (potassium-sparing diuretics), potassium supplements, or salt substitutes
• People whose kidney filtering rate dropped below a certain level after leaving hospital, without significant change over time
• People who have an existing chronic kidney disease, such as diabetic kidney disease or lupus-related kidney disease
• People who had a blockage in their urinary tract before surgery
• People whose family members living with them have chronic kidney disease with reduced kidney function
• People who are planned to receive certain medications after surgery that can harm the kidneys, such as some cancer treatments or immunotherapy
• People with poorly controlled diabetes (as measured by a specific blood sugar marker above a certain level)
• People with very high or very low blood pressure that is not under control, or signs of low fluid levels in the body
• People who had protein detected in their urine before surgery
• People with severe heart disease, bowel obstruction, or a history of dangerously high potassium levels in the blood

• People who have taken part in another clinical trial within the past 30 days, or are currently in one
• People who have difficulty communicating or who are unlikely to follow the study requirements
• People with structural or physical abnormalities of the urinary system (such as duplicated kidneys, cysts, narrowed kidney arteries, kidney stones, or an enlarged prostate), or who have a permanent urinary catheter
• People who have previously had radiation, ablation, or surgery on the kidney that was not removed
• People with a life expectancy of less than 6 months, for example due to kidney cancer that has spread to other parts of the body
