Incidence of acute kidney injury in critically burned patients resuscitated with crystalloid and colloid according to parameters of transpulmonary thermodilution, diuresis and lactic acid.

The purpose was to study the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) according to RIFLE and AKIN criteria in critically ill burn patients resuscitated with Ringer's solution and supplements of lower molecular weight hydroxyethyl starch (HES)130/0.4/6%, and to determine the relationship between RRT indication and mortality.
