---|---|
Study group
Total of 46 patients with low serum creatinine levels whose values were obtained from the central laboratory with inclusion criteria (< 40mmol/L)
|
Diagnostic Test: Serum creatinine levels
Comparison of treatment length using mechanical ventilaton, length of stay in ICU, survival between two groups |
Control group
A total of 61 consecutive patients were obtained who were treated in ICU CHC Osijek, according to the date of admission.
|
Diagnostic Test: Serum creatinine levels
Comparison of treatment length using mechanical ventilaton, length of stay in ICU, survival between two groups |
- Length of mechanical ventilation treatment in group with low serume creatinine level [ Time Frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 year ]The investigators compared length of mechanical ventilation treatment between group with low serume creatinine level and control group
- Length of stay in ICU in group with low serume creatinine level [ Time Frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 year ]The investigators compared length of stay in ICU between group with low serume creatinine level and control group
- White blood cell values in group with low creatinine level [ Time Frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 year ]The investigators compared white blood cell values between group with low creatinine level and control group
- Hemoglobine values in group with low creatinine level [ Time Frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 year ]The investigators compared hemoglobine values between group with low creatinine level and control group
- Number of patients who started nutrition in ICU [ Time Frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 year ]The investigators compared number of patients between group with low creatinine level and control group who started nutrition in ICU
- Platelets values in group with low creatinine level [ Time Frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 year ]The investigators compared platelet values between group with low creatinine level and control group
- Number of patients who receive blood products transfusion [ Time Frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 year ]The investigators compared number of patients who received blood products between group with low creatinine level and control group
- Number of patients discharged [ Time Frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 year ]The investigators compared number of patients who were discharged from intensive care unit to the ward between group with low creatinine level and control group
