Validating a lower urine output criteria in predicting death in critically ill patients

Introduction: Urine output provides a rapid estimate for kidney function, and its use has been incorporated in the diagnosis of acute kidney injury. However, not many studies had validated its use compared to the plasma creatinine. It has been showed that the ideal urine output threshold for predict...

Validating a lower urine output criteria in predicting death in critically ill patients
description Introduction: Urine output provides a rapid estimate for kidney function, and its use has been incorporated in the diagnosis of acute kidney injury. However, not many studies had validated its use compared to the plasma creatinine. It has been showed that the ideal urine output threshold for prediction of death or the need for dialysis was 0.3 ml/kg/h. We aim to assess this threshold in our local ICU population. Materials and Methods: This was a secondary analysis of an observational study done in critically ill patients. Hourly urine output data was collected, and a moving average of 6-hourly urine output was calculated over the first 48 hours of ICU admission. AKIuo was defined if urine output ≤ 0.5 ml/kg/h, and UO0.3 was defined as urine output ≤ 0.3 ml/kg/h. Results: 143 patients were recruited into the study, of these, 87 (61%) had AKIuo, and 52 (36%) had UO0.3.
