Sensitivity analysis considering presence of AKI according to RIFLE classification.

Unadjusted Adjusted

HR (95% CI) P HR (95% CI) P
Mean fluid balance/24hours (L) 1.74 (1.56 to 1.95) <0.001 1.51 (1.31 to 1.74) <0.001
Mean urine volume/24hours (L) 0.39 (0.32 to 0.48) <0.001 0.48 (0.38 to 0.62) <0.001
Diuretic use 0.34 (0.22 to 0.52) <0.001 0.31 (0.19 to 0.51) <0.001

Variables considered for the model included age, gender, co-morbid diseases (diabetes, hypertension and cardiovascular disease), non-renal SOFA, sepsis, mean fluid balance, mean urine volume and diuretic use. Only significant variables are shown in the table. AKI, acute kidney injury; HR, hazard ratio; RIFLE, Risk of renal dysfunction, Injury to the kidney, Failure of kidney function, Loss of kidney function and End-stage kidney disease.
