Article Synopsis
- Early diagnosis of acute kidney injury (AKI) is essential, but traditional biomarkers fall short while newer options are costly and not widely available.
- This study involved daily urine analysis of ICU patients, measuring various substances to track changes in urinary indices over time.
- Results showed that urinary sodium (UNa) and fractional excretion of sodium (FENa) had significant changes just one day before clinical diagnosis, indicating potential for early AKI detection through routine monitoring.
