Fig. 3From: Association between diuretics and successful discontinuation of continuous renal replacement therapy in critically ill patients with acute kidney injuryPredictive ability of urine output one day before continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) discontinuation [day minus 1 (day − 1)] for discontinuation of CRRT in the diuretics group. a Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis of the day − 1 urine output for prediction of successful discontinuation of CRRT. Optimal cutoff value of the day − 1 urine output in all patients was 191 mL/day. The area under the ROC curve was 0.821 (95% CI 0.797–0.845, p < 0.001), sensitivity was 81.2% (95% CI 77.6–84.5%), and specificity was 71.6% (95% CI 68.0–75.0%). b ROC analysis of the day − 1 urine output for predicting successful discontinuation of CRRT in oliguric (urine output ≤ 400 mL/day) patients in the diuretics group. Optimal cutoff value of the day − 1 urine output was 125 mL/day. The area under the ROC curve was 0.745 (95% CI 0.692–0.798, p < 0.001), sensitivity was 72.1% (95% CI 64.6–78.8%), and specificity was 68.8% (95% CI 61.3–75.7%)Back to article page
