摘要
Urine output (UO) is routinely measured in the intensive care unit (ICU) but its prognostic value remains debated. The study aimed to investigate the association between day 1 UO and hospital mortality. @@@ Clinical data were abstracted from the Multiparameter Intelligent Monitoring in Intensive Care II (version 2.6) database. UO was recorded for the first 24 h after ICU entry, and was classified into three categories: UO > 0.5, 0.3-0.5 and a parts per thousand currency sign0.3 ml/kg per hour. The primary endpoint was the hospital mortality. Four models were built to adjust for the hazards ratio of mortality. @@@ A total of 21,207 unselected ICU patients including 2,401 non-survivors and 18,806 survivors were included (mortality rate 11.3 %). Mortality rate increased progressively across UO categories: > 0.5 (7.67 %), 0.3-0.5 (11.27 %) and a parts per thousand currency sign0.3 ml/kg/h (18.29 %), and this relationship remained statistically significant after rigorous control of confounding factors with the Cox proportional hazards regression model. With UO > 0.5 as the referent group, the hazards ratios for UO 0.3-0.5 and UO a parts per thousand currency sign0.3 were 1.41 (95 % CI 1.29-1.54) and 1.52 (95 % CI 1.38-1.67), respectively. @@@ UO obtained on ICU entry is an independent predictor of mortality irrespective of diuretic use. It would be interesting to examine whether strategies to increase UO would improve clinical outcome.
