Primary outcome measure(s)
AGI grade — Day0, Day3,Day7,Day14 As a predictor of mortality in critically ill patients, AGI grade is useful for identifying the severity of GI dysfunction. AGI grade refers to the diagnostic criteria for acute gastrointestinal injury established by the European Critical Care Society in 2012. AGI can be graded from a minimum of I to a maximum of IV. The higher the level, the more severe the gastrointestinal dysfunctionHigher AGI grade levels indicate progressively more severe conditions.
