SCr-AKI, serum creatinine–defined AKI; NGAL, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin; discharge, hospital discharge; KIM-1, kidney injury molecule-1.
Optimal biomarker concentration cutoff: maximum combined sensitivity and specificity. Units for urine NGAL, ng/mg creatinine. Units for urine KIM-1, pg/mg creatinine.
