Association Between Urine Output and Mortality in Critically Ill Patients: A Machine Learning Approach.

Objectives: Current definitions of acute kidney injury use a urine output threshold of less than 0.5 mL/kg/hr, which have not been validated in the modern era. We aimed to determine the prognostic importance of urine output within the first 24 hours of admission to the ICU and to evaluate for variance between different admission diagnoses.
