Sponsor's own description

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality, and because no specific treatment is available, early acknowledgment is needed. The incidence of AKI and chronic kidney disease (CKD) have been increasing over time but it is not until the past decade there is an understanding of a bidirectional nature between AKI and CKD, where AKI predisposes to CKD and vice versa. The criteria for diagnosing AKI is through serum creatinine (sCr) and/or urine output. As detection of sCr-increases are delayed by 48-72 hours it is not an optimal biomarker for early recognition of AKI. In contrast the biomarker neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) has shown to predict AKI within 12h of critical disease or postoperative, and without the requirement of prior measurements for comparison. The purpose of the project is to investigate if the relatively new biomarker NGAL (neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin), which is known to be able to detect AKI in an early phase, can be used to detect development of CKD and potential future hospital admissions in a relatively large and diverse cohort of patients admitted to the Acute Emergency Department at North Zealand Hospital. The study is designed as a longitudinal prospective study where there is an enrollment estimation of 3600 unselected patients over one year. Blood tests will be taken when admitted and thereafter every day for the first week and subsequently every once a week throughout hospitalization. Patients that are sent home the same day, will still be included in the study but without further NGAL analyses.
