Tachycardia and Acute Kidney Injury among Critically Ill Patients with Sepsis: A Prospective Observational Study.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Tachycardia caused by sympathetic overactivity impairs myocardial function and raises septic patients' mortality. This study examined whether tachycardia is associated with acute kidney injury (AKI) period-prevalence among critically ill patients with and without sepsis.

Methods

In 328 patients (119 sepsis and 209 non-sepsis) admitted to our intensive care unit (ICU), we assessed heart rate at ICU admission, plasma neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide, and urinary L-type fatty acid-binding protein and N-acetyl-β-d-glucosaminidase (NAG) at 0 and 48 h after admission. Tachycardia was defined as a heart rate above 100 beats/min.

Results

Tachycardia was independently correlated with AKI prevalence during the first week after ICU admission in the septic patients, but not in the non-septic patients. A dose-dependent increase in AKI period-prevalence was observed across ascending heart rate ranges. Furthermore, we discovered a dose-dependent increase in renal biomarker-positive patients regarding plasma NGAL and urinary NAG over increasing heart rate ranges 48 h after admission.

Conclusion

The findings revealed an independent relationship between tachycardia and AKI prevalence during the first week of ICU in septic patients. Heart rate was found to have a dose-dependent effect on AKI prevalence and renal insult monitored by biomarkers.

Project description:BackgroundVitamin D deficiency in critically ill patients is associated with poor outcomes, and vitamin D supplementation is recommended for patients with chronic kidney disease. Whether acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with altered Vitamin D metabolism is unknown. We aimed to compare the longitudinal profiles of serum 25(OH)D and 1,25(OH)2D concentrations in critically ill patients with and without moderate to severe AKI and explore the impact of renal recovery and parathyroid hormone (PTH).MethodsIn this prospective, observational study in two centres in the UK, critically ill patients with and without AKI underwent serial measurement of serum 25(OH)D and 1,25(OH)2D and plasma PTH concentrations for 5 days. Linear mixed model analysis and sensitivity analyses were performed.ResultsSerial data of 137 patients were analysed. Seventy-one patients had AKI stage II/III of whom 23 recovered kidney function during the 5-day study period; 66 patients did not have AKI at enrolment of whom 14 developed new AKI. On day of enrolment, patients' serum 25(OH)D concentrations were low (median 18 nmol/L) but there was no significant difference between patients with and without AKI. Median serum 1,25(OH)2D levels were significantly lower in patients with AKI II/III (41 pmol/L [IQR 26, 58]) compared to similarly unwell patients without AKI (54 pmol/L [IQR 33, 69]) during the 5-day period. Recovery of kidney function in patients with AKI was associated with a rise in 1,25(OH)2D concentrations. Plasma PTH results were impacted by serum calcium and magnesium levels but not associated with 1,25(OH)2D levels.ConclusionsCritically ill patients with moderate-to-severe AKI have significantly lower serum 1,25(OH)2D concentrations than similarly sick patients without AKI but there was no difference in serum 25(OH)D concentrations. Recovery of AKI was associated with a rise in serum 1,25(OH)2D concentrations. More research is needed to investigate the health benefits and safety of supplementation with active vitamin D in critically ill patients with moderate-to-severe AKI.
