From: Identifying on admission patients likely to develop acute kidney injury in hospital
Stage | Serum Creatinine | Urine output |
|---|---|---|
1 | 1.5–1.9 x baseline creatinine, or ≥ 26.4 μmol/l within 48 h | < 0.5 ml/kg/hr. for 6–12 h |
2 | 2.0–2.9 x baseline creatinine | < 0.5 ml/kg/hr. for ≥12 h |
3 | ≥ 3.0 times the baseline, or ≥ 354 μmol/l, or initiation of renal replacement therapy | < 0.3 ml/kg/hr. for ≥24 h, or anuria ≥12 h |
