Validation of the Augmented Renal Clearance in Trauma Intensive Care scoring system for augmented renal clearance prediction in a trauma subgroup of a mixed ICU population.

What Is Known And Objective: Augmented renal clearance is prevalent in trauma patients and leads to subtherapeutic levels of renally eliminated medications with potentially unfavourable clinical outcomes. The Augmented Renal Clearance of Trauma in Intensive Care (ARCTIC) score has been developed to predict augmented renal clearance in critically ill trauma patients. Our primary objective was to validate this score among the trauma subgroup of a mixed intensive care patient cohort.
