Abstract Acute kidney injury (AKI) has an incidence rate of 5-6% among intensive care unit (ICU) patients and sepsis is the most frequent etiology. Aims: To assess patients in the ICU that developed AKI, AKI on chronic kidney disease (CKD), and/or sepsis, and identify the risk factors and outcomes of these diseases. Methods: A prospective observational cohort quantitative study that included patients who stayed in the ICU > 48 hours and had not been on dialysis previously was carried out. Results: 302 patients were included and divided into: no sepsis and no AKI (nsnAKI), sepsis alone (S), septic AKI (sAKI), non-septic AKI (nsAKI), septic AKI on CKD (sAKI/CKD), and non-septic AKI on CKD (nsAKI/CKD). It was observed that 94% of the patients developed some degree of AKI. Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) stage 3 was predominant in the septic groups (p = 0.018). Nephrologist follow-up in the non-septic patients was only 23% vs. 54% in the septic groups (p < 0.001). Dialysis was performed in 8% of the non-septic and 37% of the septic groups (p < 0.001). Mechanical ventilation (MV) requirement was higher in the septic groups (p < 0.001). Mortality was 38 and 39% in the sAKI and sAKI/CKD groups vs 16% and 0% in the nsAKI and nsAKI/CKD groups, respectively (p < 0.001). Conclusions: Patients with sAKI and sAKI/CKD had worse prognosis than those with nsAKI and nsAKI/CKD. The nephrologist was not contacted in a large number of AKI cases, except for KDIGO stage 3, which directly influenced mortality rates. The urine output was considerably impaired, ICU stay was longer, use of MV and mortality were higher when kidney injury was combined with sepsis.

Purpose Early renal replacement therapy (RRT) initiation should theoretically influence many physiological disorders related to acute kidney injury (AKI). Currently, there is no consensus about RRT timing in intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Methods We performed a retrospective analysis of all critically ill patients who received RRT in our ICU during a 3 year-period. Our goal was to identify mortality risk factors and if RRT initiation timing had an impact on survival. RRT timing was calculated from the moment the patient was classified as having acute kidney injury in the RIFLE classification. Results A hundred and ten patients received RRT. We identified four independent mortality risk factors: need for mechanical ventilation (OR = 12.82 (1.305 - 125.868, p = 0.0286); RRT initiation timing >16 h (OR = 5.66 (1.954 - 16.351), p = 0.0014); urine output on admission <500 ml/day (OR = 4.52 (1.666 - 12.251), p = 0.003); and SAPS II on admission >70 (OR = 3.45 (1.216 - 9.815), p = 0.02). The RRT initiation <16 h and RRT initiation >16 h groups presented the same baseline characteristics, except for more severe gravity scores and kidney failure in the early RRT group. Conclusions Early RRT in ICU patients with acute kidney injury or failure was associated with increased survival.

Abstract Background While acute kidney injury (AKI) is frequent in severe SARS-CoV2-related pneumonia ICU patients, few data are still available about its risk factors. Methods Retrospective observational study performed in four university affiliated hospitals in Paris. AKI was defined according to the KIDGO guidelines. Factors associated with AKI were picked up using multivariable mixed-effects logistic regression. Independent risk factors of day 28 mortality were assessed using Cox model. Results 379 patients (median age 62 [53,69], 77% of male) were included. Half of the patients had AKI (n = 195, 52%) including 58 patients (15%) with AKI stage 1, 44 patients (12%) with AKI stage 2, and 93 patients (25% with AKI stage 3). Chronic kidney disease (OR 7.41; 95% CI 2.98–18.4), need for invasive mechanical ventilation at day 1 (OR 4.83; 95% CI 2.26–10.3), need for vasopressors at day 1 (OR 2.1; 95% CI 1.05–4.21) were associated with increased risk of AKI. Day 28 mortality in the cohort was 26.4% and was higher in patients with AKI (37.4 vs. 14.7%, P < 0.001). Neither AKI (HR 1.35; 95% CI 0.78–2.32) nor AKI stage were associated with mortality (HR [95% CI] for stage 1, 2 and 3 when compared to no AKI of, respectively, 1.02 [0.49–2.10], 1.73 [0.81–3.68] and 1.42 [0.78–2.58]). Conclusion In this large cohort of SARS-CoV2-related pneumonia patients admitted to the ICU, AKI was frequent, mostly driven by preexisting chronic kidney disease and life sustaining therapies, with unclear adjusted relationship with day 28 outcome.

Abstract Background: acute kidney injury is a common complication in critically ill patients and it is commonly associated with high mortality and morbidity with adverse short and long term outcome. bjectives: The main objective of this study was to determine the frequency of acute kidney injury in ICU patients in Omdurman teaching hospital. And to assess the risk factors associated with the development of acute kidney injury (AKI) in a critically ill patient. We also intended to correlate acute kidney injury with the primary disease required admitting to ICU and find out the impact of acute kidney injury in ICU outcomes. Methods: In this descriptive prospective, cohort hospital-based study, 211 patients were studied and followed up during admission in ICU using standardized questionnaire to collect clinical data and investigation Results: a total of 61 patients has been included in the study developed renal impairment during their stay in ICU 39 (64%) patients were males and 22 ( 36%) were female mean age was 41 ± 5 renal impairment developed after mean of 5 days of admission and the most common cause was decreased level of consciousness and severe hypotension. sepsis accounting for 40% of the admission. The outcome in ICU showed that the mortality rate was high up to 41% in kidney injury patients Sepsis account for over 96 % (24 patients) who have passed away. Conclusions: development of AKI in ICU is an important risk factor for poor outcomes in critically setting. Prevention is the best method for avoiding AKI, with the early identification and recognition of high-risk patients.

Кidney injury is a frequent and significant complication of cancer and cancer therapy. The kidneys are susceptible to injury from malignant infiltration, damage by metabolites of malignant cells, glomerular  injury, nephrotoxic drugs including chemotherapeutic agents. Also  bone marrow transplantation complications, infections with immune  suppression (including septicemia), tumor lysis syndrome should be  taken into account. Chemotherapeutic agents are a common cause  of acute kidney injury but can potentially lead to chronic kidney  disease development in cancer patients. This article summarizes risk  factors of acute kidney injury in cancer patients. Risk factors are  divided into two groups. The systemic are decrease of total  circulating blood volume, infiltration of kidney tissue by tumor cells,  dysproteinemia, electrolyte disturbances. The local (renal) risk  factors are microcirculation disturbances, drugs biotransformation  with formation of reactive oxygen intermediates, high concentration of nephrotoxic agents in proximal tubules and its  sensitivity to ischemia. Drug-related risk factors include: drugs  combination with cytotoxic effect high doses long term use necessity, direct cytotoxic effect of not only chemotherapeutic agents but also its metabolites, mean solubility forming intratubular  precipitates. Early diagnosis, timely prevention and treatment of  these complications provide significantly improve nononcologic results of treatment.
