Description of intervention(s) / exposure
The major objective of the study was to estimate the diagnostic accuracy of plasma NGAL on predicting subsequent development of acute kidney injury in non-cardiac postoperative patients that required intensive care. Plasma NGAL was taken within 1 hour and at 6th hour of post-operative ICU admission. Patients are observed until discharge from ICU to assess the presence of any acute kidney injury, requirement of renal support, ICU mortality
