Abstract:

Introduction: fluid balance has recently emerged as a potential biomarker for survival in critically ill patients. Objectives: To assess the prognostic value of daily and cumulative fluid balance on mortality in the first five days for patients admitted due to critical illness. Methods: The study was conducted on 455 adult patients admitted to Critical Care Medicine Department units at Alexandria Main University Hospital with different critical diagnosis during six months from 1st January 2015 to end of June 2015.

Keywords:

Fluid balance, Critical illness, Mortality.
