The fallacy of the BUN:creatinine ratio in critically ill patients.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common in critically ill patients and is associated with a high mortality rate. Pre-renal azotemia, suggested by a high blood urea nitrogen to serum creatinine (BUN:Cr) ratio (BCR), has traditionally been associated with a better prognosis than other forms of AKI. Whether this pertains to critically ill patients is unknown. METHODS We con...
متن کاملPatient to nurse ratio and risk of ventilator-associated pneumonia in critically ill patients.

METHODS Data from an earlier study in 27 intensive care units in 9 European countries were examined in a secondary analysis. The initial cohort included 2585 consecutive patients who had mechanical ventilation (1) after admission for treatment of pneumonia or (2) for more than 48 hours irre...

متن کاملRatio Ratio
In this paper we describe block algorithms for the reduction of a real symmetric matrix to tridiagonal form and for the reduction of a general real matrix to either bidiagonal or Hessenberg form using Householder transformations. The approach is to aggregate the transformations and to apply them in a blocked fashion, thus achieving algorithms that are rich in matrix-matrix operations. These red...
متن کاملNeutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio is associated with mortality in critically-ill cirrhotic patients
Introduction The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is an easily accessible biomarker predictive of poor outcome in a variety of diseases. NLR is recognized to predict survival in uncomplicated cirrhosis, or in patients listed for transplantation. Whether NLR is associated with prognosis in patients with an acute complication of cirrhosis has not been assessed. Still, there is growing evidenc...
