Sepsis is an important healthcare concern in India as well as globally. This study shows how the level of microalbuminuria predict mortality of patients diagnosed with sepsis and those without sepsis.In this study total 150 patients of which 75 patients belonging to each sepsis and non-sepsis group, with agegt;15 years admitted in Medical Intensive Care Unit (ICU) were enroled Microalbuminuria levels were analyzed at admission and after 24 hours after admission.Microalbuminuria levels were significantly high in patients with sepsis as compared to non sepsis. Microalbuminuria has highest sensitivity of 90 % and specificity of 98 % to differentiate between sepsis and non sepsis in comparison to APACHE II and SOFA scores.Serial monitoring of bedside urine albumin-creatinine measurement might help in the early identification of patients with sepsis that requires early targeted therapy. The 24-hour ACR assessment predicts ICU survival and may have the potential to monitor the efficacy of therapeutic interventions delivered, such as fluid resuscitation, appropriate antibiotics, vasopressors, and ionotropes that affect the endothelium. |
