From: Fluid balance, intradialytic hypotension, and outcomes in critically ill patients undergoing renal replacement therapy: a cohort study

Variable Unadjusted OR P value Adjusted OR P value
(95% CI) (95% CI)
Mean daily fluid balance (per 1000 mL positive) 1.47 (1.30-1.66) <0.001 1.36 (1.18-1.57) <0.001
Intradialytic hypotension (per 10% increase in number of days) 1.27 (1.19-1.35) <0.001 1.14 (1.06-1.23) <0.001
Age (per 5-year increase) 1.07 (1.02-1.14) 0.01 1.15 (1.07-1.25) <0.001
Male sex 0.95 (0.66-1.36) 0.78 1.04 (0.66-1.64) 0.85
Charlson comorbidity index 1.16 (1.07-1.26) <0.001 1.28 (1.14-1.44) <0.001

  CRRT vs. IHD 2.65 (1.79-3.91) <0.001 0.59 (0.34-1.02) 0.06

  1. The final model had 492 patients and 251 deaths; it did not demonstrate lack of goodness of fit (Hosmer-Lemeshow P = 0.85). CI, confidence interval; CRRT, continuous renal replacement therapy; IHD, intermittent hemodialysis; OR, odds ratio; RRT, renal replacement therapy; SLED, sustained low-efficiency dialysis; SOFA, sequential organ failure assessment score.
