Abstract
• Standard tests of renal function (urine output, BUN, and serum creatinine) were compared with creatinine clearance values and with outcome in 131 critically ill surgical patients. There was a strong negative relationship between creatinine clearance and mortality. Of the 23 patients with a severe reduction of creatinine clearance (Arch Surg 114:461-467, 1979)Keywords
