Sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI) is a common organ dysfunction of sepsis, and its incidence and mortality are increasing,which brings heavy economic burden to patients and society. Early diagnosis and effective intervention can block the occurrence and progression of SA-AKI effectively, improve prognosis, and reduce medical costs. Diagnosis on SA-AKI relies on urine volume and serum creatinine, which has the disadvantages of being easily disturbed and delaying. The identification of biomarkers in blood and urine can facilitate diagnosis and provide targeted therapy to enhance the management of SA-AKI.

To address this, the Chinese Society of Critical Care Medicine organized a working group from disciplines including critical care medicine, respiratory and critical care medicine, respiratory therapy, and health informatics. This group formulated the Expert consensus on core data elements and definitions for adult invasive mechanical ventilation (2024). This consensus established a standardized framework comprising 246 key data elements through a comprehensive literature review. The elements cover patient demographic information, clinical data, ICU admission details, parameters of invasive mechanical ventilation therapy, vital signs, and blood gas analysis, aiming to standardize data management in both clinical practice and research. Moreover, the consensus accentuates the necessity for continuous updates to the data element standards in line with advancements in mechanical ventilation technology, ensuring that they reflect the latest clinical practices and technological progress.</p>","PeriodicalId":24079,"journal":{"name":"Zhonghua wei zhong bing ji jiu yi xue","volume":"36 10","pages":"1009-1019"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142717210","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
