Hello
Thanks for query .
Your uncle of 70 years old is admitted in ICU with multi organ failure and on ventilator is under care of a qualified Nephrologist .
The out come of treatment as regards recovery entirely depends upon his response to antibiotics ,urine output,status of kidney function that is reflected in his blood urea and serum creatinine levels and liver function .
With single functioning kidney and supportive measures there are high chances of full recovery .
