P Gosling, J Czyz, P Nightingale, M Manji - Critical care medicine, 2006 - journals.lww.com
Objective: Comparison of urine albumin within 6 hrs of intensive care unit (ICU) admission
with demography, clinical classification, outcome, inotrope/vasopressor requirement, clinical
assessment of mortality risk, and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) and Acute
Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II scores. Design: Urine albumin-
creatinine ratio (ACR) was measured on ICU admission (ACR 1) and after 4–6 hrs (ACR 2).
Setting: A 17-bed general ICU in a university teaching hospital. Patients: Unselected …
