美国匹兹堡大学医学系的Clermont G及其同事在《国际肾脏》杂志上发表文章称,以往的文献显示,急性肾衰(ARF)与ICU中危重患者的高病死率相关,但依赖透析的慢性肾衰(末期肾病)患者在ICU中的转归却从未报道过。因此,研究者将ICU中ARF的发生率和转归与末期肾病或无肾功能 Clermont G and colleagues in the Department of Medicine, University of Pittsburgh, in the United States, wrote in the International Journal of Kidney that previous literature showed that acute renal failure (ARF) is associated with high mortality in critically ill patients in the ICU, but dialysis-dependent chronic kidney disease The decline in patients with end-stage renal disease (ICU) has never been reported. Therefore, the investigators identified the incidence and outcome of ARF in the ICU as with end-stage renal disease or without renal function
