OBJECTIVEThe aim: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common and clinically important condition that affects both kidney structure and function. International Renal Research Institute of Vicenza (IRRIV) score has been designed to enable early identification of patients who may require renal replacement therapy (RRT). We aimed to assess the usefulness of the IRRIV score in predicting the outcome in the intensive care unit (ICU) patients who may require renal replacement therapy (RRT).PATIENTS AND METHODSMaterial and Methods: This retrospective study screened 955 consecutive patients hospitalized in a mixed tertiary ICU between Jan 2015 and Jul 2018. Patients with sCr>3.5 mg/dl on the first 24 hours post-admission constituted the study group 1 (G1, n=54). Subjects who underwent RRT based on indications other than elevated sCr level were a study group 2 (G2, n=31). ICU mortality, a need for RRT and ICU length of stay (LoS) were the outcomes.RESULTSResults: Median IRRIV score was 5.5 points (IQR 4.5-6.5) in G1 and 3.5 points (IQR 3-5.5) in G2. IRRIV score poorly predicted the need for RRT implementation (AUC=0.652, 95%CI 0.510-0.776, P=0.048). The IRRIV score failed to predict mortality in both groups (G1: AUC=0.610, 95%CI 0.468-0.740, P=0.16; G2: AUC=0.530, 95%CI 0.343-0.710, P=0.79). No correlation was found between the score and ICU LoS (G1: R= -0.13, P=0.36; G2: R= -0.27, P=0.15).CONCLUSIONConclusions: The retrospective analysis of our regional data did not confirm the expected usefulness of the IRRIV score in predicting the need for RRT nor in the prognostication of the patients admitted to the ICU due to renal failure.
