Risk factors and outcomes associated with new-onset atrial fibrillation during acute respiratory distress syndrome.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Outcomes and risk factors associated with new-onset atrial fibrillation (AF) during acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) are unclear. We investigated mortality and risk factors associated with new-onset AF during ARDS.

Materials and methods

We obtained data from the ARDS Network Albuterol for Treatment of Acute Lung Injury trial, which prospectively identified new-onset AF among patients with ARDS as an adverse event. We determined Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation III-adjusted associations between new-onset AF and 90-day mortality. We also examined associations between new-onset AF and markers of inflammation (interleukin 6 and interleukin 8), myocardial injury (troponin I), autonomic activation (epinephrine), and atrial stretch (central venous pressure) as well as other clinical characteristics.

Measurements and main results

Of 282 patients (mean age, 51.6 years; 45% women; 77% white) enrolled in Albuterol for Treatment of Acute Lung Injury, 28 (10%) developed new-onset AF during the study. We did not identify associations between new-onset AF and baseline central venous pressure, plasma levels of troponin I, epinephrine, interleukin 6, or interleukin 8. New-onset AF during ARDS was associated with increased 90-day mortality (new-onset AF, 43% vs no new-onset AF, 19%; Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation-adjusted odds ratio, 3.09 [95% confidence interval, 1.24-7.72]; P = .02).

Conclusion

New-onset AF during ARDS is associated with increased mortality; however, its mechanisms require further study.

Project description:ObjectiveAdiponectin (APN) is an anti-inflammatory hormone derived from adipose tissue that attenuates acute lung injury in rodents. In this study, we investigated the association between circulating APN and outcomes among patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).MethodsWe performed a retrospective cohort study using data and plasma samples from participants in the multicenter ARDS Network Fluid and Catheter Treatment Trial.ResultsPlasma APN concentrations were measured in 816 (81.6%) trial participants at baseline and in 568 (56.8%) subjects at both baseline and day 7 after enrollment. Clinical factors associated with baseline APN levels in multivariable-adjusted models included sex, body mass index, past medical history of cirrhosis, and central venous pressure (model R2 = 9.7%). We did not observe an association between baseline APN and either severity of illness (APACHE III) or extent of lung injury (Lung Injury Score). Among patients who received right heart catheterization (n = 384), baseline APN was inversely related to mean pulmonary artery pressure (β = -0.015, R2 1.5%, p = 0.02); however, this association did not persist in multivariable models (β = -0.009, R2 0.5%, p = 0.20). Neither baseline APN levels [HR per quartile1.04 (95% CI 0.91-1.18), p = 0.61], nor change in APN level from baseline to day 7 [HR 1.04 (95% CI 0.89-1.23), p = 0.62)] were associated with 60 day mortality in Cox proportional hazards regression models. However, subgroup analysis identified an association between APN and mortality among patients who developed ARDS from extra-pulmonary etiologies [HR per quartile 1.31 (95% CI 1.08-1.57)]. APN levels did not correlate with mortality among patients developing ARDS in association with direct pulmonary injury [HR 0.96 (95% CI 0.83-1.13)], pinteraction = 0.016.ConclusionsPlasma APN levels did not correlate with disease severity or mortality in a large cohort of patients with ARDS. However, higher APN levels were associated with increased mortality among patients developing ARDS from extra-pulmonary etiologies.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Acute kidney injury (AKI) is the most frequent extra-pulmonary organ failure in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The objective of this study was to assess the factors associated with the development and severity of AKI in patients with ARDS. METHODS:This is a retrospective cohort study of ARDS patients without acute or chronic kidney disease prior to the onset of ARDS over a 7-year period (2010-2017). AKI and severity of AKI were defined according to the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes 2012 guidelines. RESULTS:Of the 634 ARDS patients, 357 patients met study criteria. A total of 244 (68.3%) patients developed AKI after ARDS onset: 60 (24.6%) had stage I AKI, 66 (27%) had stage II AKI, and 118 (48.4%) had stage III AKI. The median time of AKI onset for stage I AKI was 2 days (interquartile range, 1.5-5.5) while stage II and III AKI was 4 days. On multivariable analysis, factors associated with development of AKI were age [subdistribution hazard ratio (SHR) 1.01, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.00-1.02], SOFA score (SHR 1.16, 95%CI 1.12-1.21), a history of diabetes mellitus (DM) (SHR 1.42, 95%CI 1.07-1.89), and arterial pH on day 1 of ARDS (SHR per 0.1 units decrease was 1.18, 95%CI 1.05-1.32). In severity of AKI, stage I AKI was associated with age (SHR 1.03, 95%CI 1.01-1.05) and serum bicarbonate on day 1 of ARDS (SHR 1.07, 95%CI 1.02-1.13). Stage II AKI was associated with age (SHR 1.03, 95%CI 1.01-1.05), serum bicarbonate on day 1 (SHR 1.12, 95%CI 1.06-1.18), SOFA score (SHR 1.19, 95%CI 1.10-1.30), history of heart failure (SHR 3.71, 95%CI 1.63-8.46), and peak airway pressure (SHR 1.04, 95%CI 1.00-1.07). Stage III AKI was associated with a higher BMI (SHR 1.02, 95%CI 1.00-1.03), a history of DM (SHR 1.79, 95%CI 1.18-2.72), SOFA score (SHR 1.29, 95%CI 1.22-1.36), and arterial pH on day 1 (SHR per 0.1 units decrease was 1.25, 95%CI 1.05-1.49). CONCLUSIONS:Age, a higher severity of illness, a history of diabetes, and acidosis were associated with development of AKI in ARDS patients. Severity of AKI was further associated with BMI, history of heart failure, and peak airway pressure.
