Abstract | Background: There is no optimal timing for continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) in acute kidney injury (AKI). AKI is a reason for the increased unmeasured anions, which refers to the increased organic acids in the blood, and they can be detected by calculating strong ion gap (SIG). SIG level at the moment of the AKI diagnosis may be a predictor for the initiation of CRRT. Methods: Patients who were diagnosed with AKI in the first week of the intensive care unit (ICU) period were included in this prospective observational study. At the moment of the AKI diagnosis, blood gas samples were recorded, and SIG was calculated. Results: The median level of SIG at the moment of the AKI diagnosis of CRRT (+) patients was significantly higher than CRRT (-) patients (7.4 and 3.2 mmol L Conclusions: Increased SIG at the moment of the AKI diagnosis in patients with AKI may be a predictive marker to initiate CRRT. |
