Core Tip	Despite the high burden of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in Indian emergency departments, baseline prognostic markers remain underexplored. This study found a high in-hospital mortality rate among adult patients with CKD. Independent predictors of mortality included a low Glasgow coma scale, hyperglycemia, and low serum albumin at admission. These findings highlight the importance of early risk stratification and targeted interventions to improve short-term survival in acutely ill patients with CKD.
