Increased incidence of acute kidney injury requiring dialysis in metropolitan France.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Acute kidney injury requiring dialysis (AKI-D) is associated with high mortality. Information about its epidemiology is nonetheless sparse in some countries. The objective of this study was to assess its epidemiology and prognosis in metropolitan France. METHODS:Using the French hospital discharge database, the study focused on adults hospitalized in metropolitan France between 2009 and 2014 and diagnosed with AKI-D according to the codes of the French common classification of medical procedures. Crude and standardized incidence rates (SIR) by gender and age were calculated. We explored the changes in patients' characteristics, modalities of renal replacement therapy (RRT), in-hospital care, and mortality, along with their determinants. Trends over time in the SIR for AKI-D, its principal diagnoses, and comorbidities were analyzed with joinpoint models. RESULTS:Between 2009 and 2014, the AKI-D SIR increased from 475 (95% CI, 468 to 482) to 512 per million population (95% CI, 505 to 519). AKI-D was twice as high in men as women. Median age was 68 years. Over the study period, the AKI-D SIR steadily increased in all age groups, particularly in the elderly. The most common comorbidities were cardio-cerebrovascular diseases (64.8%), pulmonary disease (42.2%), CKD (33.8%), and diabetes (26.0%); all of these except CKD increased significantly over time. In 2009, heart failure (17.2%), sepsis (17.0%), AKI (13.0%), digestive diseases (10.7%), and shock (6.6%) were the most frequent principal diagnoses, with a significant increase in heart failure and digestive diseases. The proportion of patients with at least one ICU stay and continuous RRT increased from 80.3% to 83.9% and from 56.9% to 61.8% (p<0.001), respectively. In-hospital mortality was high but stable (47%) and higher in patients with an ICU stay. CONCLUSIONS:This is the first exhaustive study in metropolitan France of the SIR for AKI-D. It shows this SIR has increased significantly over 6 years, together with ICU care and continuous RRT. In-hospital mortality is high but stable.

Project description:ObjectivePrompt assessment of perioperative complications is critical for the comprehensive care of surgical patients. Acute kidney injury requiring dialysis (AKI-D) is associated with high mortality, yet little is known about how long-term outcomes of patients have evolved. The association of AKI-D with postsurgical outcomes has not been well studied.MethodsWe investigated patients from the National Health Insurance Research Database and validated by the multicenter Clinical Trial Consortium for Renal Diseases cohort. All patients with AKI-D 18 years or older undergoing four major surgeries (cardiothoracic, esophagus, intestine, and liver) were retrospectively investigated (N=106,573). Patient demographics, surgery type, comorbidities before admission, and postsurgical outcomes, including the in-hospital, 30-day, and long-term mortality together with dialysis dependence were collected.ResultsAKI-D is the top risk factor for 30-day and long-term mortality after major surgery. Of 1,664 individuals with AKI-D and 6,656 matched controls, AKI-D during the hospital stay was associated with in-hospital (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR]=3.04, 95% CI 2.79-3.31), 30-day (aHR=3.65, 95% CI 3.37-3.94), and long-term (aHR=3.22, 95% CI 3.01-3.44) mortality. Patients undergoing cardiothoracic surgery (CTS) showed less in-hospital (aHR=0.85, 95% CI 0.75-0.97), 30-day (aHR=0.79, 95% CI 0.70-0.89), and long-term (aHR=0.80, 95% CI 0.72-0.90) mortality compared with non-CTS patients with AKI-D. CTS patients had a high risk of 30-day dialysis dependence (subhazard ratio [sHR]=1.67, 95% CI 1.18-2.38), but the risk of long-term dialysis dependence was similar (sHR=1.38, 95% CI 0.96-2.00) after AKI-D by taking mortality as a competing risk. Non-CTS patients had more comorbidities of sepsis, azotemia, hypoalbuminemia, and metabolic acidosis compared with CTS patients.ConclusionAKI exhibits paramount effects on postsurgical outcomes that extend well beyond discharge from the hospital. The goal of the perioperative assessment should include the reassurance of enhancing renal function recovery among different surgeries, and optimized follow-up is warranted in attenuating the complications after postsurgical AKI has occurred.

Project description:BackgroundCreatinine is widely used to estimate renal function, but this is not practical in critical illness. Low creatinine has been associated with mortality in many clinical settings. However, the associations between predialysis creatinine level, Sepsis-related Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score, fluid overload, and mortality in acute kidney injury patients receiving dialysis therapy (AKI-D) has not been fully addressed.MethodsWe extracted data for AKI-D patients in the eICU and MIMIC databases. We conducted a retrospective observational cohort study using the eICU dataset. The study cohort was divided into the high-creatine group and the low-creatinine group by the median value (4 mg/dL). The baseline patient information included demographic data, laboratory tests, medications, and comorbid conditions. The independent association of creatinine level with 30-day mortality was examined using multivariate logistic regression analysis. In sensitivity analyses, the associations between creatinine, SOFA score, and mortality were analyzed in patients with or without fluid overload. We also carried out an external validity using the MIMIC dataset.ResultsIn all 1,600 eICU participants, the 30-day mortality rate was 34.2%. The crude overall mortality rate in the low-creatinine group (44.9%) was significantly higher than that in the high-creatinine group (21.9%; P < 0.001). In the fully adjusted models, the low-creatinine group was associated with a higher risk of 30-day mortality (odds ratio, 1.77; 95% confidence interval, 1.29-2.42; P < 0.001) compared with the high-creatinine group. The low-creatinine group had higher SOFA and nonrenal SOFA scores. In sensitivity analyses, the low-creatinine group had a higher 30-day mortality rate with regard to the BMI or albumin level. Fluid overloaded patients were associated with a significantly worse survival in the low-creatinine group. The results were consistent when assessing the external validity using the MIMIC dataset.ConclusionsIn patients with AKI-D, lower predialysis creatinine was associated with increased mortality risk. Moreover, the mortality rate was substantially higher in patients with lower predialysis creatinine with concomitant elevation of fluid overload status.
