Brief Summary  
Introduction
Acute gastrointestinal injury (AGI) is a significant but often under-recognized issue in critically
ill patients, characterized by varying degrees of GI dysfunction, with a prevalence of 30% to
70%. The European Society of Intensive Care Medicine (ESICM) classifies AGI into four
grades based on severity, aiding in standardizing assessment and management. AGI’s
pathophysiology involves hypoperfusion, reperfusion injury, inflammation, and microbial
translocation, leading to increased morbidity and mortality. Higher AGI grades are strongly
associated with increased mortality. D-lactate, a bacterial fermentation byproduct, emerges as
a potential biomarker for diagnosing and prognosticating AGI, correlating with the severity of
GI dysfunction. Despite its clinical relevance, AGI remains under-diagnosed due to the lack of
standardized criteria. Further research is needed to validate AGI grading, identify additional
biomarkers, and establish standardized diagnostic and management protocols, thereby
improving patient outcomes in ICU settings.
This will be a prospective observational study conducted in the Department of Critical care
medicine, King George Medical University, Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh.
