Objective: To evaluate the clinical outcome of acute renal failure (ARF) patients when submitted to dialysis and non-dialysis treatments in ICU. Methods: this prospective study included patients over 18 years of age and serum creatinine of >1.5 mg/dl. The patients were included in dialysis and non-dialysis groups. Results: The study included 70 patients, 19 (27.1%) comprised the dialysis group and 51 (72.9%) the non-dialysis group. In the dialysis group, mortality rate was 42.1% and in the non-dialysis group was 33.3% (p<0.58). Conclusion: There were multifactors of ARF in ICU, but ARF is not the single cause for the high mortality rate in ICU patients. Keywords: Renal insufficiency, acute/therapy; Renal insufficiency, acute/epidemiology; Intensive care units; Nursing RESUMOObjetivo: Avaliar a evolução clínica de pacientes com insuficiência renal aguda (IRA) submetidos a tratamento dialítico e não-dialítico na UTI. Métodos: Estudo prospectivo onde foram incluídos pacientes com idade maior que 18 anos e com creatinina sérica > 1,5 mg/dl. Os pacientes foram divididos em grupo dialítico e não-dialítico. Resultados: Dos 70 pacientes incluídos 19 (27,1%) foram do grupo dialítico e 51 (72,9%) do grupo não-dialítico. A taxa de mortalidade foi de 42,1% no grupo dialítico e de 33,3% no grupo não-dialítico (p<0,58). Conclusão: Há multifatores determinando a IRA na UTI, porém, não é causa isolada das elevadas taxas de mortalidade dos pacientes na UTI.

Conclusion: Hay multifactores que determinan la IRA en la UCI, sin embargo, no es causa aislada de las elevadas tasas de mortalidad de los pacientes en la UCI.

“…[2,3,7,[38][39][40] However, few have focused on describing the mortality associated with AKI in trauma. [21,25,27] Our data further strengthen the findings of prior investigations by showing that early AKI is associated with higher crude and adjusted mortality in ICU patients with trauma.…”

“…Despite extensive research and progress in several other fields, the incidence, as well as mortality of septic AKI, remains unacceptably high. 11 Perhaps an important factor in this dilemma is the relative lack of histopathologic information and reliance on creatinine measurements for assessment of kidney function. the kidney is a commonly affected organ during sepsis, and its involvement carries a high risk of mortality.…”
