In this prospective observational study, patients hospitalized in mixed intensive care unit, aged between 18 and 80, and diagnosed with sepsis and septic shock according to sepsis-3 criteria will be included. To determine whether patients develop AKI during the first five days of ICU admission, creatinine and urine output will be monitored daily for the first five days of ICU admission according to KDIGO criteria. Clinical diagnosis and treatment of AKI will be made according to KDIGO. According to KDIGO, patients will be divided into two groups: those who develop AKI and those who do not. By comparing plasma NGAL and VEXUS scores between groups, the sensitivity and specificity of the VEXUS score in determining AKI will be determined.
