ABSTRACT
Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is a common clinical finding that produces some serious health problem. Since the previously
decades, the identification of AKI clinical practically based on laboratory test as Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN) and Serum
Creatinin (SC).Unfortunatelly, SC is not a reliable indicator of AKI in acute phase. Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated
Lipocalin (NGAL) is promisingly for an early biomarker of ischemic kidney injury. After performing the inclusion criteria
and exclusion criteria, samples are underwent the operation then admitted to the ICU ward. Samples were followed and
underwent serially laboratory examination of urine NGAL, SC and urine output according to the timetable of the research.
Mean concentration of SC before operation and hour 0 hour, 6 hours, and 24 hours after operation for non AKI patients
were as follow 0.83 ± 0.19 mg/dl; 0.83 ± 0.19 mg/dl; 0.89 ± 0.18 mg/dl; and 0.88 ± 0.25 mg/dl. And for AKI patients were
0.86 ± 0.21; 0.81 ± 0.20 mg/dl; 1.01 ± 0.20 mg/dl; and 1.84 ± 0.75 mg/dl. Mean concentration of urine NGAL on 0 hour, 3
hours, and 6 hours post operation non AKI patients were as follows 26.0 ± 27.7 ng/l; 24.4 ± 23.0 ng/l; and 32.6 ± 42.4 ng/l.
While in AKI patients were 809.4 ± 379.0 ng/l; 732.0 ± 450.0 ng/l; and 651.4 ± 432.0 ng/l. The elevated concentration of
urine NGAL among cases of AKI occurred earlier than the elevated concentration of SC.
