Predialysis coronary revascularization and postdialysis mortality.

ABSTRACT: Objectives:Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is associated with better survival than percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with mild-to-moderate chronic kidney disease (CKD) and End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). However, the optimal strategy for coronary artery revascularization in advanced CKD patients who transition to ESRD is unclear. Methods:We examined a contemporary national cohort of 971 US veterans with incident ESRD, who underwent first CABG or PCI up to 5 years prior to dialysis initiation. We examined the association of a history of CABG versus PCI with all-cause mortality following transition to dialysis, using Cox proportional hazards models adjusted for time between procedure and dialysis initiation, socio-demographics, comorbidities and medications. Results:582 patients underwent CABG and 389 patients underwent PCI. The mean age was 66±8 years, 99% of patients were male, 79% were white, 19% were African Americans, and 84% were diabetics. The all-cause post-dialysis mortality rates after CABG and PCI were 229/1000 patient-years (PY) [95% CI: 205-256] and 311/1000PY [95% CI: 272-356], respectively. Compared to PCI, patients who underwent CABG had 34% lower risk of death [multivariable adjusted Hazard Ratio (95% CI) 0.66 (0.51-0.86), p=0.002] after initiation of dialysis. Results were similar in all subgroups of patients stratified by age, race, type of intervention, presence/absence of myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure and diabetes. Conclusion:CABG in advanced CKD patients was associated lower risk of death after initiation of dialysis compared to PCI.

Project description:Background and objectivesAlmost half of patients on dialysis demonstrate a postdialysis serum potassium ?3.5 mEq/L. We aimed to examine the relationship between postdialysis potassium levels and all-cause mortality.Design, setting, patients, & measurementsWe conducted a cohort study of 3967 participants on maintenance hemodialysis from the Dialysis Outcomes and Practice Patterns Study in Japan (2009-2012 and 2012-2015). Postdialysis serum potassium was measured repeatedly at 4-month intervals and used as a time-varying variable. We estimated the hazard ratio of all-cause mortality rate using Cox hazard regression models, with and without adjusting for time-varying predialysis serum potassium. Models were adjusted for baseline characteristics and time-varying laboratory parameters. We also analyzed associations of combinations of pre- and postdialysis potassium with mortality.ResultsThe age of participants at baseline was 65±12 years (mean±SD), 2552 (64%) were men, and 96% were treated with a dialysate potassium level of 2.0 to <2.5 mEq/L. The median follow-up period was 2.6 (interquartile range, 1.3-2.8) years. During the follow-up period, 562 (14%) of 3967 participants died, and the overall mortality rate was 6.7 per 100 person-years. Compared with postdialysis potassium of 3.0 to <3.5 mEq/L, the hazard ratios of postdialysis hypokalemia (<3.0 mEq/L) were 1.84 (95% confidence interval, 1.44 to 2.34) in the unadjusted model, 1.44 (95% confidence interval, 1.14 to 1.82) in the model without adjusting for predialysis serum potassium, and 1.10 (95% confidence interval, 0.84 to 1.44) in the model adjusted for predialysis serum potassium. The combination of pre- and postdialysis hypokalemia was associated with the highest mortality risk (hazard ratio, 1.72; 95% confidence interval, 1.35 to 2.19, reference; pre- and postdialysis nonhypokalemia).ConclusionsPostdialysis hypokalemia was associated with mortality, but this association was not independent of predialysis potassium.
