Q: All of the following are part of predicting Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) within 48 hours of admission to ICU except?
A) History of chronic kidney disease (CKD)
B) History of hypertension (HTN)
C) History of coronary heart disease (CHD)
D) PH less than 7.20
E) Mechanical ventilation
Answer: D
Recently a score 1 is developed and validated to predict AKI within 48 hours of admission to ICU. There are ten components to it including CKD, HTN, CHD, chronic liver disease, heart failure, nephrotoxin exposure, sepsis, mechanical ventilation, and anemia.
Level of PH included is less than 7.30.
This score has 95 percent negative predictive value if patient's score is less than 5.
