144 RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN URINE OUTPUT AND TIMING OF INITIATION OF CRRT IN AKI

3.5 -59.1mmol/L) with mean creatinine 388umol/L (range 54 -926umol/ L). 55.3% had intermittent haemodialysis, 10.5% sustained low efficiency haemodialysis and 34.2% continuous renal replacement therapy.There was 26(68.4%)death, 6 (15.8%) achieved full renal recovery, 5(13.2%)partial renal recovery and 1(2.6%) was dialysis dependent.In the non-RRT group (n¼89, 70.1%), mean urea was 13.6mmol/L (range 1.4 -43.3mmol/L) with mean creatinine 199.2umol/L (range 51 -933umol/L).There was 19(21.3%)death, 47(52.9%)full renal recovery and 23(25.8%)partial renal recovery.Conclusions: Sepsis was the main etiology of AKI in our study with a high mortality rate.Majority of the patients had early initiation of RRT, however their outcome could not be compared with the late initiation group as both group were not matched.
