Serial measurement of plasma neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin in mortality prediction in critically ill patients with systemic inflammatory disease and sepsis

Introduction: Plasma Neutrophil Gelatinase Associated Lipocalin (NGAL) is the most promising acute kidney injury biomarker to date. NGAL expression is also increased by inflammation and infection. NGAL’s ability to predict hard outcome such as mortality in this group of patients is of interest. Seps...

Delta NGAL at 24 and 48 hours (NGAL-24 and NGAL-48) were defined as 24 and 48 h NGAL minus Day-1 NGAL. Results: A total of 151 patients with three days of NGAL measurement were analyzed. Of this, 53 (35.1%) died. Non-survivors were older (51 vs 45, p=0.03) and had higher SOFA (9±7 vs 7±4, p=0.02) and SAPSII (47±15 vs 40±15, p=0.01) scores compared to survivors. NGAL concentrations over three days were higher in non-survivors compared to survivors (Repeated Measures ANOVA, p=0.02). Day 1-NGAL and NGAL-24 were not independently predictive of mortality.
