Summary

Neutrophil lymphocyte ratio NLR is an important index that evaluate the inflammatory status . It is a cost effective and readily available , and simply calculated , so that why investigators try to use it as a predictor of short term survival in the critically ill patients

Detailed description

NLR will be used as predictor for short term survival and patients stay in ICU in 2 groups of patients . Investigators will use it in a group of Medical Critically ill patients as respiratory failure , neuromuscular disorders , renal impairment . the other group is the critically ill surgical patients , as patients with multiple trauma , post major surgery

Conditions

• Critical Care

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	Neutrophil Lymphocyte Ratio	Neutrophil:lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is an emerging biomarker that is used to predict mortality and morbidity. The association of this biomarker with systemic illness and its usefulness in risk assessment of critically ill patients has not been fully elucidated.
