Abstract :
Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) with sepsis is a
dominant problem in the management of ICU patients
who require Renal Replacement Therapy (RRT). Loop
diuretics (LD) such as furosemide are used intensively in
emergency medicine and intensive care because they can
control hyperhydration. LD has been reported to
modulate tubular cell survival beneficially. This study
aims to determine the effect of low-dose furosemide on the
improvement of acute kidney injury and kidney function
in septic patients at the ICU H. Adam Malik Hospital,
Medan.
Methods: This study is a prospective cohort observational
analytic study to examine the relationship between lowdose furosemide and the improvement of acute kidney
injury in septic patients in the ICU of H. Adam Malik
General Hospital Medan. A total of 34 samples that met
the inclusion and exclusion criteria were included in the
study.
