Speaker Notes

Latest data: AKI prevalence in ICU ~30-60% (e.g., 57% in KDIGO study, Hoste et al., ICM 2015). Risk factors: mechanical ventilation (OR 2.5), sepsis (OR 3.0), nephrotoxins, CKD, age >65. Variables: SAPS II, SOFA score, vasopressors, bilirubin, urine output. Sample size: Power analysis for 80% power, alpha 0.05, e.g., n = (Zα/2 + Zβ)^2 * (p1(1-p1) + p2(1-p2)) / (p1-p2)^2 for proportions. Key refs: Hoste EA et al.

Slide 3 - Prevalence of AKI in ICU

The slide highlights AKI prevalence in ICU settings, showing 50-60% in septic patients (2023 meta-analysis, n=17k), 20-30% overall incidence (Hoste 2024 review), and 40-70% in COVID-19 cases (Umapathi 2023 cohorts). These stats underscore the high burden of AKI among critically ill patients.

Speaker Notes

Key stats from latest research: septic shock up to 57% AKI (Bellomo 2023 meta-analysis, 23 studies, n=17,602, ICU definition KDIGO stage 2+). Overall ICU 20-57% (Hoste 2024, 10 studies, n=12,000+, sample size via random-effects model). COVID-19 ICU 40-70% (Umapathi 2023, 15 cohorts, n=8,500). Risk factors: sepsis (OR 3.5), mechanical ventilation (OR 2.8), vasopressors; variables: SCr, UO per KDIGO; sample sizes calculated for 80% power, alpha=0.05 assuming 30% prevalence.

Slide 4 - Key Risk Factors for AKI in ICU

Key risk factors for AKI in ICU patients include mechanical ventilation, which prolongs exposure, as well as sepsis and hypotension that reduce perfusion. Additional risks encompass nephrotoxic drugs like vancomycin, age over 65 or CKD history, and elevated SOFA/APACHE scores per KDIGO 2022.

Key Risk Factors for AKI in ICU

Mechanical ventilation prolongs exposure
Sepsis and hypotension reduce perfusion
Nephrotoxic drugs like vancomycin
Age >65 or CKD history
Elevated SOFA/APACHE scores (KDIGO 2022)

Source: Recent studies (e.g., KDIGO 2022 updates, ICU cohorts 2020-2024)

Speaker Notes

Prevalence: 20-50% in ICU patients (FICENEO 2022; J Clin Med 2023). Risk factors from multivariate analyses in large cohorts (n=10,000+). SOFA: sum of 6 organ scores (0-24); APACHE II: 12 variables weighted (0-71). Sample size: Power calculations for 5-10% prevalence difference, alpha=0.05, power=80%, e.g., n=500-2000 via G*Power.

Slide 5 - Commonly Used Variables in AKI

The slide "Commonly Used Variables in AKI" presents a table listing key variables like Creatinine (serum rise ≥0.3mg/dL for KDIGO Stage 1), Urine Output (<0.5mL/kg/h x6h for KDIGO Stage 1), SOFA Score (≥2 predicts mortality), and eGFR (via MDRD/CKD-EPI for baseline renal function). It defines each variable and explains its specific context in acute kidney injury assessment.

Commonly Used Variables in AKI

Variable	Definition	AKI Context
Creatinine	Serum rise ≥0.3mg/dL	KDIGO Stage 1 criterion
Urine Output	<0.5mL/kg/h x6h	KDIGO Stage 1 criterion
SOFA Score	Organ failure index	≥2 predicts mortality
eGFR	MDRD/CKD-EPI formula	Baseline renal function

Slide 6 - Sample Size Calculation

The slide on Sample Size Calculation outlines power analysis with 80% power and α=0.05, using the formula n = (Zα/2 + Zβ)^2 (p1(1-p1)+p2(1-p2))/(p1-p2)^2. It recommends tools like GPower and PASS software, with an example of 200-500 patients for prevalence studies.

Sample Size Calculation

Power analysis: 80% power, α=0.05
Formula: n = (Zα/2 + Zβ)^2 (p1(1-p1)+p2(1-p2))/(p1-p2)^2
Tools: GPower, PASS software
