Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: <All patients will undergo physical examination, including ultrasound evaluation upon ICU admission according to standard practice care. The burden will be a blood sample (and urine sample) at admission. Blood sample will be obtained by arterial line (or venous access) which is part of standard ICU care. So there will be no additional puncture for this study. Collection of variables during ICU stay will all be either part of standard clinical care or include extra physical examination or ultrasound evaluation. For follow-up patients will be evaluated by phone at 6 months and at 12 months by home-visit. This is also already part of the investigator's evaluation of quality of care. Except for blood sampling, all study related procedures have previously been approved by the Institutional Review Board (IRB). The patient will experience no individual benefit.
