About this trial
This study investigates whether Body Roundness Index (BRI), an anthropometric measure derived from waist circumference and height, can predict mortality in adult intensive care unit (ICU) patients. BRI captures central adiposity and body fat distribution more accurately than Body Mass Index (BMI). In this prospective multicenter cohort study, BRI will be measured at ICU admission and its association with ICU mortality, 28-day mortality, hospital mortality, mechanical ventilation duration, ICU length of stay, and acute kidney injury will be evaluated. The predictive performance of BRI will also be compared with BMI.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Age ≥18 years
ICU admission with expected stay ≥24 hours
Waist circumference and height measurable within 24 hours of admission
Disqualifiers
Age <18 years
ICU stay <24 hours
Missing or unmeasurable anthropometric data (e.g., severe edema, abdominal wound, morbid obesity precluding measurement)
Pregnancy
Trial population
Adult patients admitted to the intensive care units of participating tertiary care centers in Turkey. Enrollment will be conducted prospectively across multiple centers following ethics committee approval at each site.
