Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

All demographic data will be obtained including the patients' age, sex, body mass index (BMI) \& categorized into; BMI \< 18.5Kg/m2 = underweight, BMI between 18.5-24.9Kg/m2 = normal weight, while BMI between 25-29.9Kg/m2 = overweight \& obese = BMI ≥ 30Kg/m2, associated co-morbidities (diabetes mellitus, hypertension, chronic renal failure, cancer\& chronic liver disease), the cause of admission to ICU, Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA), nutritional risk screening (NRS) on admission \& discharge, prior cardiac arrest, previous ICU admission within 6months, nosocomial infection, organ failure e.g. cardiovascular, respiratory, renal \& organic support requirement e.g. hemodynamic support, mechanical ventilation, renal replacement therapy (RRT).
