ObjectivesThe aim of our study was to investigate the association between serum albumin concentration and the risk of cardiac arrest in critically ill patients with end-stage renal disease in the intensive care unit (ICU).DesignThis was a secondary analysis.SettingThe Phillip electronic-ICU collaborative database from 2014 to 2015.ParticipantsThis study included 4990 critically ill patients diagnosed with end-stage renal disease.Primary and secondary outcome measuresThe exposure of interest was serum albumin concentration. The outcome variable was cardiac arrest.ResultsA non-linear relationship was observed between serum albumin concentration and risk of cardiac arrest, with an inflection point of 3.26 g/dL after adjusting for potential confounders. The effect sizes and the CIs on the left and right sides of the inflection point were 0.88 (0.65 to 1.19) and 0.32 (0.16 to 0.64), respectively.ConclusionsWithin an albumin range of 3.26–5.6 g/dL, each 1 g/dL increase in serum levels is associated with a 68% decrease of the risk of cardiac arrest in critically ill patients with end-stage renal disease. |
