About this trial
To study the ability of RRI, measured by bedside Doppler ultrasound, in detecting acute kidney injury in high-risk patients admitted to surgical intensive care unit, Aswan university hospital, compared with renal biomarkers and conventional assessment using urine output and serum creatinine levels.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Early detection of acute kidney injury.
Renal artery resistive index will be measured daily.Cystatin C will be measured on admission, after 24 hours and 72 hours.
Diagnosis of acute kidney injury.
Renal artery resistive index will be measured daily.Cystatin C will be measured on admission, after 24 hours and 72 hours.
Secondary outcomes
To grade the severity of AKI.
Using the KDIGO criteria, AKI is staged as follows: Stage 1: Increase in serum creatinine to 1.5 to 1.9 times baseline, or increase in serum creatinine by ≥0.3 mg/dL, or reduction in urine output to \<0.5 mL/kg/h for 6 to 12 h. Stage 2: Increase in serum creatinine to 2.0 to 2.9 times baseline, or reduction in urine output to \<0.5 mL/kg/h for ≥12 h. Stage 3: Increase in serum creatinine to 3.0 times baseline, or increase in serum creatinine to ≥4.0 mg/dL, or reduction in urine output to \<0.3 mL/kg/h for ≥24 h, or anuria for ≥12 h, or the initiation of renal replacement therapy, or, in patients \<18 years, decrease in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) to \<35 mL/min/1.73 m2.
