Abstract


Our study included 50 patients admitted togeneral ICUs of Nasser Institute Hospital.
Patient was followed for 1st 2 weeks of ICU admission and divided into 2 equal groups:
• Group A: 25 patients who developed AKI with estimation of serum NGAL twice:
 Within 24 hour of admission.
 At time of AKI development (stage 1) only.

• Group B: 25 patients who did not develop AKI.

Our study showed highly significance correlation between Serum NGAL as a marker of AKI at time of admission and after development of AKI.

The present study Showed that NGAL as highly predictor of AKI with highly specificity (96%) and sensitivity (72%).

The present studyShowed NGAL as a predictor of hemodialysis with specificity (71.4%) and sensitivity (63.6%).

The present studyShowed NGAL as a predictor of patient's outcome with specificity (68%) and sensitivity (50%).



The present study showed significant correlation between Serum NGAL as a marker of AKI and Hgb at time of AKI.
And no significance correlation between Serum NGAL as a marker of AKI and other laboratory data.


As conclusionswe support the use of NGAL as a biomarker for the prediction of AKI with highly specificity in aseptic patients in ICU.
