Mortality prediction of serum neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin in patients requiring continuous renal replacement therapy

Abstract: Background/Aims: We investigated whether serum neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) can predict mortality in patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) requiring continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). Methods: This study enrolled 169 patients who underwent serum NGAL testing at CRRT initiation from June 2017 to January 2019. The predictive power of serum NGAL level for 28-day mortality was compared to the Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation-II (APACHE-II) score and Sequential Organ F… Show more

“…First, Park et al [ 30 ] reported that circulatory diseases such as coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, HF, cardiomyopathy, myocarditis, and endocarditis were the second-leading indications of CRRT in Korea. Nephrologists in our center reported an association with continuous renal replacement therapy in 2020 [ 31 ]. In their study, the most common cause of indication for continuous renal replacement therapy was sepsis (52.6%) and cardiac disease was the second most common cause (37.5%).…”
