This study aims to find out the role of plasma I-FABP level, SOFA score, fluid balance, and vasopressor dose in predicting gastrointestinal dysfunction in high-risk postoperative patients treated in ICU
This is a prospective cohort study to find out the role of plasma I-FABP level, SOFA score, fluid balance, and vasopressor dose in predicting gastrointestinal dysfunction in high-risk postoperative patients treated in ICU. The characteristics of patients who meet the eligibility criteria were obtained. Blood sampling during admission is done for I-FABP level measurement and will be repeated after 24 hours. Blood sample which is not directly processed will be stored in refrigerator under 6-8C temperature. Evaluation of Acute Gastrointestinal Injury signs and symptoms is done. The re-evaluation is performed every day. If patients experiencing AGI signs and symptoms, monitoring and treatment based on condition are done. Routine follow-up is continued during hospitalisation in ICU. After all sample are collected, I-FABP level is assessed quantitatively using ELISA.

RECRUITINGI-FABP plasma level
I-FABP plasma level is measured during admission and 24 hours after. I-FABP plasma level during admission is used as the data, while the 24 hours after admission is used to evaluate any bowel injury during treatment in ICU.
Time frame: During admission
I-FABP plasma level
I-FABP plasma level is measured during admission and 24 hours after. I-FABP plasma level during admission is used as the data, while the 24 hours after admission is used to evaluate any bowel injury during treatment in ICU.
Time frame: 24 hours after admission
Vasopressor dose
Mean dose of norepinephrine (mcg/kg/min) used during intraoperative period. It is measured proportionally to the duration of use based on anesthesia record.
Time frame: During surgery (intraoperative period)
SOFA score
Score used to evaluate patients' status during treatment in ICU and to determine the severity of organ dysfunction. It is measured during patients' admission to ICU
Time frame: During admission in ICU (postoperative period)
Fluid balance
The net between fluid output and input during intraoperative period.
Time frame: During surgery (intraoperative period)
