We collected baseline characteristics, severity of illness, haemoglobin (Hb), and haemodynamic parameters in the first 12\u00a0h of AKI I and differentiated between patients who progressed to AKI III and those who did not. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify risk factors for progression. Associations between Hb, arterial oxygen saturation and cardiac index were explored by receiver operating characteristic curve analysis.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Two hundred and ten patients (median age 70\u00a0years, 68\u00a0% male) underwent haemodynamic monitoring within 12\u00a0h of AKI I; 85 (41.5\u00a0%) progressed to AKI III. The proportion of patients with underlying cardiac disease was significantly higher among progressors versus non-progressors (58\u00a0% vs 34\u00a0%, respectively; <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.001). On the first day of AKI I, progressors had a significantly higher Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score (9 vs 8; <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001), lower cardiac index (median 2.6 vs 3.3\u00a0L\/min\/m<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>; <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001), higher arterial lactate (2 vs 1.6\u00a0mmol\/L; <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001), higher central venous pressure (16 vs 13; <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.02), lower mean arterial blood pressure (median 71 vs 74\u00a0mmHg; <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.01) and significantly higher requirement for cardiovascular and respiratory support, but there was no difference in Hb concentration (median 96\u00a0g\/L in both groups). Multivariable regression analysis showed that heart disease, need for mechanical ventilation, arterial lactate, Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score, central venous pressure and cardiac index on first day of AKI I were independently associated with progression to AKI III.
