<h4>Introduction</h4>Mechanical ventilation (MV) is commonly regarded as a risk factor for acute kidney injury (AKI) in the critically ill. We investigated the strength of this association and whether settings of tidal volume (Vt) and positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) affect the risk for AKI.<h4>Methods</h4>We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis using studies found by searching MEDLINE, EMBASE, and references in relevant reviews and articles. We included studies reporting on a ...[more]

Project description:Background and Objective: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is recognized as an independent risk factor for mortality and long-term poor prognosis in neonates. The objective of the study was to identify the risk factors for AKI in critically ill neonates to provide an important basis for follow-up research studies and early prevention. Methods: The PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang Med, SinoMed, and VIP Data were searched for studies of risk factors in critically ill neonates. Studies published from the initiation of the database to November 19, 2020, were included. The quality of studies was assessed by the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale and the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) checklist. The meta-analysis was conducted with Stata 15 and drafted according to the guidelines of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement. Results: Seventeen studies (five cohort studies, ten case-control studies, and two cross-sectional studies) were included in meta-analysis, with 1,627 cases in the case group and 5,220 cases in the control group. The incidence of AKI fluctuated from 8.4 to 63.3%. Fifteen risk factors were included, nine of which were significantly associated with an increased risk of AKI in critically ill neonates: gestational age [standardized mean difference (SMD) = -0.31, 95%CI = (-0.51, -0.12), P = 0.002], birthweight [SMD = -0.37, 95%CI = (-0.67, -0.07), P = 0.015], 1-min Apgar score [SMD = -0.61, 95%CI = (-0.78, -0.43), P = 0.000], 5-min Apgar score [SMD = -0.71, 95%CI = (-1.00, -0.41), P = 0.000], congenital heart disease (CHD) [odds ratio (OR) = 2.94, 95%CI = (2.08, 4.15), P = 0.000], hyperbilirubinemia [OR = 2.26, 95%CI = (1.40, 3.65), P = 0.001], necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) [OR = 6.32, 95%CI = (2.98, 13.42), P = 0.000], sepsis [OR = 2.21, 95%CI = (1.25, 3.89), P = 0.006], and mechanical ventilation [OR = 2.37, 95%CI = (1.50, 3.75), P = 0.000]. Six of them were not significantly associated with AKI in critically ill neonates: age [SMD = -0.25, 95%CI = (-0.54, 0.04), P = 0.095], male sex [OR = 1.10, 95%CI =(0.97, 1.24), P = 0.147], prematurity [OR = 0.90, 95%CI(0.52, 1.56), P = 0.716], cesarean section [OR = 1.52, 95%CI(0.77, 3.01), P = 0.234], prenatal hemorrhage [OR = 1.41, 95%CI = (0.86, 2.33), P = 0.171], and vancomycin [OR = 1.16, 95%CI = (0.71, 1.89), P = 0.555]. Conclusions: This meta-analysis provides a preliminary exploration of risk factors in critically ill neonatal AKI, which may be useful for the prediction of AKI.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Duration of acute kidney injury (AKI) has been recognized a risk factor for adverse outcomes following AKI. We sought to examine the relationship of AKI duration and recurrent AKI with short-term outcomes in critically ill patients who were mechanically ventilated and met criteria for the acute respiratory distress syndrome. METHODS:Participants in the NHLBI ARDS Network SAILS multicenter trial who developed AKI were included in this analysis and divided into groups based on AKI duration. Differences in outcomes were evaluated using t test and Chi-square test. Competing risks regression and Cox regression were used to evaluate factors associated with resolving AKI and recurrent AKI. RESULTS:In total, 238 patients were included in the study. Seventy-seven patients had short duration AKI (1-2 days), 47 medium duration AKI (3-7 days), 87 persistent AKI (> 7 days) and 38 died during their AKI episode. Persistent AKI was associated with worse outcomes including increased ICU length of stay, time on the ventilator and days with cardiovascular failure. We found no clinical differences between patients with short and medium duration AKI, even when accounting for AKI severity and recurrent AKI. Patients with resolving AKI were less likely to have oliguria or moderate/severe ARDS on the day AKI criteria were met. Recurrent AKI was associated with poorer clinical outcomes. No baseline clinical factors were found to predict development of recurrent AKI. CONCLUSIONS:In critically ill patients with sepsis-associated ARDS and AKI, the impact of short and medium duration AKI on clinical outcomes was modest. Persistent and recurrent AKI were both associated with worse clinical outcomes, emphasizing the importance of identifying these patients, who may benefit from novel interventions.

Project description:Compare ICU outcomes and respiratory system mechanics in patients with and without acute kidney injury during invasive mechanical ventilation.DesignsRetrospective cohort study.SettingsICUs of the University of California, San Diego, from January 1, 2014, to November 30, 2016.PatientsFive groups of patients were compared based on the need for invasive mechanical ventilation, presence or absence of acute kidney injury per the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes criteria, and the temporal relationship between the development of acute kidney injury and initiation of invasive mechanical ventilation.InterventionsNone.Measurements and main resultsA total of 9,704 patients were included and 4,484 (46%) required invasive mechanical ventilation; 2,009 patients (45%) had acute kidney injury while being treated with invasive mechanical ventilation, and the mortality rate for these patients was 22.4% compared with 5% in those treated with invasive mechanical ventilation without acute kidney injury (p < 0.01). Adjusted hazard of mortality accounting for baseline disease severity was 1.58 (95% CI, 1.22-2.03; p < 0.001]. Patients with acute kidney injury during invasive mechanical ventilation had a significant increase in total ventilator days and length of ICU stay with the same comparison (both p < 0.01). Acute kidney injury during mechanical ventilation was also associated with significantly higher plateau pressures, lower respiratory system compliance, and higher driving pressures (all p < 0.01). These differences remained significant in patients with net negative cumulative fluid balance.ConclusionsAcute kidney injury during invasive mechanical ventilation is associated with increased ICU mortality, increased ventilator days, increased length of ICU stay, and impaired respiratory system mechanics. These results emphasize the need for investigations of ventilatory strategies in the setting of acute kidney injury, as well as mechanistic studies of crosstalk between the lung and kidney in the critically ill.

Project description:Acute kidney injury (AKI) has been reported in up to 25% of critically-ill patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection, especially in those with underlying comorbidities. AKI is associated with high mortality rates in this setting, especially when renal replacement therapy is required. Several studies have highlighted changes in urinary sediment, including proteinuria and hematuria, and evidence of urinary SARS-CoV-2 excretion, suggesting the presence of a renal reservoir for the virus. The pathophysiology of COVID-19 associated AKI could be related to unspecific mechanisms but also to COVID-specific mechanisms such as direct cellular injury resulting from viral entry through the receptor (ACE2) which is highly expressed in the kidney, an imbalanced renin-angotensin-aldosteron system, pro-inflammatory cytokines elicited by the viral infection and thrombotic events. Non-specific mechanisms include haemodynamic alterations, right heart failure, high levels of PEEP in patients requiring mechanical ventilation, hypovolemia, administration of nephrotoxic drugs and nosocomial sepsis. To date, there is no specific treatment for COVID-19 induced AKI. A number of investigational agents are being explored for antiviral/immunomodulatory treatment of COVID-19 and their impact on AKI is still unknown. Indications, timing and modalities of renal replacement therapy currently rely on non-specific data focusing on patients with sepsis. Further studies focusing on AKI in COVID-19 patients are urgently warranted in order to predict the risk of AKI, to identify the exact mechanisms of renal injury and to suggest targeted interventions.

Project description:Rationale & Objective:Uric acid is excreted by the kidney and accumulates in acute kidney injury (AKI). Whether higher plasma uric acid level predisposes to AKI or its complications is not known. Study Design:Prospective observational cohort study. Setting & Participants:2 independent cohorts of critically ill patients: (1) 208 patients without AKI admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) at Brigham & Women's Hospital between October 2008 and December 2016; and (2) 250 participants with AKI requiring renal replacement therapy (RRT) who had not yet initiated RRT enrolled in the Acute Renal Failure Trial Network (ATN) Study. Exposure:Plasma uric acid level upon ICU admission and before RRT initiation in the ICU and ATN Study cohorts, respectively. Outcomes:Incident AKI and 60-day mortality in the ICU and ATN Study cohorts, respectively. Analytical Approach:Logistic regression models were used to test the association of plasma uric acid level with incident AKI and 60-day mortality. Results:In the ICU cohort, median plasma uric acid level was 4.7 (interquartile range [IQR], 3.6-6.4) mg/dL, and 40 patients (19.2%) developed AKI. Higher plasma uric acid levels associated with incident AKI, but this association was confounded by serum creatinine level and was not significant after multivariable adjustment (adjusted OR per doubling of uric acid, 1.50; 95% CI, 0.80-2.81). In the ATN Study cohort, median plasma uric acid level was 11.1 (IQR, 8.6-14.2) mg/dL, and 125 participants (50.0%) died within 60 days. There was no statistically significant association between plasma uric acid levels and 60-day mortality in either unadjusted models or after multivariable adjustment for demographic, severity-of-illness, and kidney-specific covariates (adjusted OR per doubling of uric acid, 1.15; 95% CI, 0.71-1.86). Limitations:Heterogeneity of ICU patients. Conclusions:Plasma uric acid levels upon ICU admission or before RRT initiation are not independently associated with adverse clinical outcomes in critically ill patients.

Project description:Patients with cancer represent a growing group among actual ICU admissions (up to 20 %). Due to their increased susceptibility to infectious and noninfectious complications related to the underlying cancer itself or its treatment, these patients frequently develop acute kidney injury (AKI). A wide variety of definitions for AKI are still used in the cancer literature, despite existing guidelines on definitions and staging of AKI. Alternative diagnostic investigations such as Cystatin C and urinary biomarkers are discussed briefly. This review summarizes the literature between 2010 and 2015 on epidemiology and prognosis of AKI in this population. Overall, the causes of AKI in the setting of malignancy are similar to those in other clinical settings, including preexisting chronic kidney disease. In addition, nephrotoxicity induced by the anticancer treatments including the more recently introduced targeted therapies is increasingly observed. However, data are sometimes difficult to interpret because they are often presented from the oncological rather than from the nephrological point of view. Because the development of the acute tumor lysis syndrome is one of the major causes of AKI in patients with a high tumor burden or a high cell turnover, the diagnosis, risk factors, and preventive measures of the syndrome will be discussed. Finally, we will briefly discuss renal replacement therapy modalities and the emergence of chronic kidney disease in the growing subgroup of critically ill post-AKI survivors.

Project description:IntroductionRegional citrate anticoagulation (RCA) is gaining popularity in continous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) for critically ill patients. The risk of citrate toxicity is a primary concern during the prolonged process. The aim of this study was to assess the pharmacokinetics of citrate in critically ill patients with AKI, and used the kinetic parameters to predict the risk of citrate accumulation in this population group undergoing continuous veno-venous hemofiltration (CVVH) with RCA.MethodsCritically ill patients with AKI (n?=?12) and healthy volunteers (n?=?12) were investigated during infusing comparative dosage of citrate. Serial blood samples were taken before, during 120 min and up to 120 min after infusion. Citrate pharmacokinetics were calculated and compared between groups. Then the estimated kinetic parameters were applied to the citrate kinetic equation for validation in other ten patients' CVVH sessions with citrate anticoagulation.ResultsTotal body clearance of citrate was similar in critically ill patients with AKI and healthy volunteers (648.04±347.00 L/min versus 686.64±353.60 L/min; P?=?0.624). Basal and peak citrate concentrations were similar in both groups (p?=?0.423 and 0.247, respectively). The predicted citrate curve showed excellent fit to the measurements.ConclusionsCitrate clearance is not impaired in critically ill patients with AKI in the absence of severe liver dysfunction. Citrate pharmacokinetic data can provide a basis for the clinical use of predicting the risk of citrate accumulation.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov Identifier NCT00948558.

Project description:BackgroundAcute kidney injury (AKI) is frequent in Coronavirus Infection Disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients. Factors associated with AKI in COVID-19 intensive care unit (ICU) patients and their outcomes have not been previously explored.MethodsProspective observational study of COVID-19 patients admitted to the ICUs of the Hospital Clínic of Barcelona (Spain), from March 25th to April 21st, 2020, who developed AKI stage 2 or higher (AKIN classification). The primary goal was to describe the characteristics of moderate-severe AKI of COVID-19 patients in an ICU context. As a secondary goal, we aimed to find independent predictors of AKI progression, Renal Replacement Therapy (RRT) requirement and mortality among these patients.ResultsDuring the study period, 52 out of 237 ICU patients, developed AKIN stage 2 or higher and were included in the study. A Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score at AKI diagnosis of 8 or higher was associated with RRT, OR 5.2, p 0.032. At the time of AKI diagnosis, patients had a worse liver profile and higher inflammation markers than at admission. Fifty per cent of the patients presented AKI progression from AKIN 2 to 3 and 28.85% required RRT. The use of corticosteroids in 69.2% of patients was associated with a reduced requirement of RRT, OR 0.13 (CI 95% 0.02-0.89), p 0.037. AKI was associated with high mortality (50%) and a longer hospital stay, median 35 vs 18 days (p 0.024).ConclusionsThe prevalence of moderate/severe AKI in COVID-19 patients admitted to the ICU is high and has a strong correlation with mortality and length of hospital stay.

Project description:ObjectiveOur objective was to determine the incidence and risk factors for intravenous acetazolamide-associated acute kidney injury (AKI).MethodsWe utilized a retrospective cohort study including patients <19 years of age initiated on intravenous acetazolamide while admitted to an ICU. Data collection included patient demographics, clinical variables, acetazolamide dosing, and serum creatinine (SCr) values. Incidence of AKI was assessed per Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes criteria. Descriptive statistical analysis and ordinal logistic regression analysis were performed to determine the incidence of AKI and variables associated with AKI.ResultsA total of 868 patients met study criteria (male 55.8%, median age 0.66 years [IQR 0.19, 3.0 years]). Intravenous acetazolamide was administered at 5.1 ± 2.8 mg/kg/dose for a median of 4 doses (IQR 2, 6). Median baseline SCr was 0.28 mg/dL (IQR 0.22, 0.37), corresponding to a creatinine clearance of 115 ± 55 mL/min/1.73 m2. Acute kidney injury occurred in 26.8% (n = 233) of patients (stage I = 20.1%, stage II = 3.7%, stage III 3.1%), and no patients received renal replacement therapy. An ordinal logistic regression model identified an increased odds of AKI with cyclosporine, ethacrynic acid, and piperacillin-tazobactam administration.ConclusionsAcute kidney injury occurs frequently in critically ill pediatric patients receiving intravenous acetazolamide.

Project description:BackgroundThe progression from acute kidney injury (AKI) to chronic kidney disease (CKD) is not well understood in children.ObjectivesWe aimed to develop a pediatric CKD definition using administrative data and use it to evaluate the association between AKI in critically ill children and CKD 5 years after hospital discharge.DesignRetrospective cohort study using chart collection and administrative data.SettingTwo-center study in Montreal, Canada.PatientsChildren (?18 years old) admitted to two pediatric intensive care units (ICUs) between 2003 and 2005. We a priori excluded patients with end-stage renal disease or no health care number. Only the first admission during the study period was included. We excluded patients who could not be linked to administrative data, did not survive hospitalization, or had preexisting renal disease.MeasurementsAcute kidney injury was defined using Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria. Patients were defined as having CKD 5 years post-discharge if they had ?1 CKD diagnostic code or ?1 CKD-specific medication prescription.MethodsChart data used to define the exposure (AKI) were merged with provincial administrative data used to define the outcome (CKD). Cox regression was used to evaluate the AKI-CKD association.ResultsA total of 2235 (56% male) patients were included, and the median admission age was 3.7 years. A total of 464 (21%) patients developed AKI during pediatric ICU admission. At 5 years post-discharge, 43 (2%) patients had a CKD diagnosis. Patients with both stage 1 and stage 2-3 AKI had increased risk of a CKD diagnosis, with the adjusted hazard ratios (95% confidence intervals) of 2.2 (1.1-4.5) and 2.5 (1.1-5.7), respectively (P < .001).LimitationsResults may not be generalizable to non-ICU patients. We were not able to control for post-discharge variables; future research should try to explore these additional potential risk factors further.ConclusionsAcute kidney injury is associated with 5-year post-discharge CKD diagnosis defined by administrative health care data.
