Table 3.

How do the KDIGO UOP criteria affect serum creatinine based on a dilutional effect after 24 hours?

KDIGO stage Metric Duration +FB (ml) Corr [SCr]
1 <0.5 ml/kg/h for 6–12 h 6 h (1,800 + 400 ml In−90 ml Out) 2,100 0.90
12 h (1,800 + 800 ml In−180 ml Out) 2,420 0.88
2 <0.5 ml/kg/h > 12 h 24 h (1,800 + 1,600 ml In−360 ml Out) 3,040 0.86
3 <0.3 ml/kg/h for 24 h 24 h (1,800 +1,600 ml In−216 ml Out) 3,184 0.85
OR 12 h (1,800 + 800 ml In−0 ml Out) 2,600 0.87
Anuria 24 h (1,800 +1,600 ml In−0 ml Out) 3400 0.84

Assumptions for calculations:

1) 30 kg patient with septic shock.

2) 1,800 ml fluid resuscitation (60 ml/kg).

3) 1,600 ml/day standard fluid prescription (BSA metric).

4) Upper limit of KDIGO Urine Output.

5) Volume of distribution of water = 18,000 ml (600 ml/kg).

6) Corrected [SCr] = [(1 mg/dl) × 18,000 ml/(18,000 ml) + fluid balance (FB)].

7) Insensible losses not factored into the calculation since critically ill patients are often intubated and have minimal insensible losses.
