Renal resistive index as an early predictor and discriminator of acute kidney injury in critically ill patients; A prospective observational cohort study.

BackgroundAcute kidney injury (AKI) complicates shock.Diagnosis is based on rising creatinine, a late phenomenon.Intrarenal vasoconstriction occurs earlier.Measuring flow resistance in the renal circulation, Renal Resistive Index (RRI), could become part of vital organ function assessment using Doppler ultrasound.Our aim was to determine whether RR
