Mp231phase Angle and Extracelular Hypervolemia, as a Prognostic Markers in Acute Kidney Injury

Abstract

Introduction and Aims:The bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a noninvasive and painless technique is easy to perform , which is used for determining body composition . Can offer information about membrane cell integrity, volemia and clinical status. We evaluate use of BIA and two bioelectrical parameters (Phase angle -PA-, and extracelular/intracelular watter ratio -ECW/ICW-) as a prognostic markers in acute kidney injury (AKI) . Methods: We include a cohort of 83 patients (médium age 64 years SD 1.8, and male 72.3 % with AKI, and BIA. We evaluate clinical prognostic index (individual severity index
