A Study of Factors Affecting Renal Impairment in Patients of Trauma: A Prospective Non-Interventional Observational Study

Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 3

Abstract

Acute renal failure (ARF) is a serious complication of trauma and has a high mortality. In large trauma population a low incidence of ARF is generally reported from 0.098% to 8.9%1 . Retrospective studies focused only on those patients who developed ARF and required dialysis. Great importance for the development of ARF after trauma was attributed to pre-existing pathological conditions such as diabetes hypertension etc. But a prospective analysis of the risk factors especially in severely ill patients admitted in ICU is still lacking
