The goal of this observational study is to explore the association between urine output and acute kidney injury in severely ill patients admitted to intensive care units. The main research questions are: What is the optimal threshold for defining reduced urine output in critically ill patients in intensive care? Is this threshold the same for different outcomes such as acute kidney injury, chronic kidney dysfunction, or mortality? Does this threshold change with treatment involving diuretics or dialysis? Does the patient's fluid balance or the amount of administered fluid affect the association between reduced urine output and the outcomes mentioned above? Is the optimal threshold for defining reduced urine output different for various patient categories and diagnoses, such as sepsis, burn injuries, or ARDS? Are there differences between surgical and non-surgical patients regarding the optimal threshold for defining reduced urine output in intensive care? Does the patient's comorbidity influence the level of reduced urine output that should be considered pathological?
