Metabolic Acidosis and Strong Ion Gap in Critically Ill Patients with Acute Kidney Injury

Abstract

Whether high or low SIG values correlate with mortality in MA patients with AKI depends on its correlation with serum creatinine, chloride, albumin, and phosphate (P) levels. AG predicts short-term mortality and SIG value predicts both short- and long-term mortality among MA patients with AKI.
