Model diagnostics:

There was no evidence of lack of fit (Hosmer Lemeshow p = 0.209) that the model was incorrectly specified (link test p = 0.300) or of multicollinearity among the included covariates (all variance inflation factors (VIF) < 1.5). There was no evidence of a non-linear relationship between cumulative fluid balance and AKI
