Echocardiographic predictors of acute kidney injury in neonates with a patent ductus arteriosus.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To investigate acute kidney injury (AKI) in neonates with a patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) including incidence, risk factors, and possible correlations between PDA-related echocardiographic measurements and AKI incidence.

Study design

We conducted a single-center retrospective cohort study of infants admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit with a diagnosis of a PDA between July 2015 and July 2017. Infants were evaluated for development of AKI based on the KDIGO criteria and a multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed.

Results

A total of 142 neonates with moderate or large PDAs were included, 43 (30%) developed AKI. Patients who developed AKI had longer length of stay, lower birth weights, lengths, and gestational ages. No echocardiographic measurements were predictive of an increased risk for developing AKI.

Conclusion

There are no significant differences in commonly measured echocardiographic markers of PDA hemodynamic significance in neonates who develop AKI.

Project description:Background: Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA) in premature neonates has been associated with comorbidities including chronic lung disease (CLD), and death. However, the treatment of PDA remains controversial. There have been several echocardiographic variables previously used to determine the hemodynamic significance of PDA but their utility in early prediction of clinical outcomes is not well studied. Objective: The objective of our study was to evaluate the use of a severity scoring system incorporating markers of systemic under perfusion, pulmonary over perfusion and left ventricular (LV) function in predicting clinical outcomes in premature neonates. Methods: It is a single center prospective observational study involving newborns < 32 weeks' gestation. An echocardiogram was done within seven days of life to measure variables previously known to predict severity of shunting in PDA including pulmonary perfusion index (PPI). Predictors of CLD/death were identified using multivariate logistic regression. A severity score was derived and its ability to predict clinical outcomes was tested using a receiver operating characteristic curve. Results: We studied 98 infants with a mean (SD) gestation of 28.9 ± 1.91 weeks and birth weight of 1228.06 ± 318.94 g, respectively. We identified five echocardiographic variables along with gestational age that was independently associated with the outcome variable (PPI, LV output, Superior Mesenteric Artery [SMA] Velocity Time Integral [VTI], Peak diastolic flow velocity in Pulmonary Vein [PV Vd], and reversal of flow in diastole in descending aorta [DFR]). The range of severity score was 0 (low risk) to 12 (high risk). A higher score was associated with the primary outcome variable of CLD/death (7.5 [1.2] vs. 3.6 [1.5], p < 0.001). Our severity score had an area under the curve of 0.97 (95% CI 0.93-0.99, p < 0.001) for predicting CLD/death. Conclusion: Our new PDA severity score of 5.5 has a sensitivity and specificity of 94% and 93%, and positive and negative predictive values of 94% and 93%, respectively.
