Background Acute (or type 1) cardio-renal syndrome (ACRS) is defined as the acute kidney injury  in patients hospitalized for acute heart failure (HF), which often is associated to a complex and complicated clinical course. In addition, renal failure is a strong predictor of long-term adverse events in patients with acute heart failure (HF). Purpose To investigate the impact of ACRS, what factors are related to its occurrence, and how it affects the outcome of patients hospitalized with acute HF. Methods We studied consecutive patients hospitalized with acute HF from January 2019 to December 2020. Renal function as well as other biomarkers were recorded and monitored during hospitalization, and correlated with various clinical characteristics, risk factors and patient outcome. Results The sample consists of 612 patients, mean age 77 ± 12 years, 63% men with average duration of hospitalization 6 ± 4 days. A total of 37 deaths (6%) were observed. ACRS was found in 141 patients (23%) and independent prognostic factors for its occurrence were ischemic cardiomyopathy, age, prolonged hospitalization, use of aldosterone antagonists and high CRP upon admission. The incidence of ACRS during hospitalization was an independent prognostic factor of death (r = 0.15, p = 0.02) and anemia (r = 0.24, p = 0.04), while the outcome of death was more common in patients with ACRS - but without statistical significance - compared to patients without ACRS. Conclusion Deterioration of renal function in acute HF is associated with anemia and death. Factors such as ischemic cardiomyopathy, age, length of hospital stay seem to play a role in the onset of ACRS and should be taken into account in these patients, to prevent negative outcomes.

Objetivo: Cuantificar la incidencia y los factores de exposición relacionados con el desarrollo de la insuficiencia renal aguda en pacientes hospitalizados en unidades de cuidados intensivos adulto durante tres meses. Materiales y métodos: se  realizó un estudio epidemiológico de tipo cuantitativo con dos componentes: descriptivo longitudinal y de cohorte histórica, se emplearon los criterios de AKIN, participaron dos instituciones de salud, una de orden privado y otra de orden público.  Resultados: Se incluyeron 186 pacientes, con una edad promedio de  56,2 +/- 20,14 años.  Se encontró una incidencia del 21,6 % (IC 95 % 17-30) de insuficiencia renal aguda y una tasa de incidencia de 29,2 por cada 100 pacientes año exposición. En promedio la elevación de creatinina fue 0,47 mg/dL y el gasto urinario de 0,37 cc/kg/h, los días en ocurrir el evento 3,1 (IC 95 % 2,48-3,74). Se encontró relación estadísticamente significativa entre insuficiencia cardíaca aguda 6,84 días (IC 95 % 4,21-9,48) (p=0,026),   posoperatorios 9,82 días (IC 95 % 8,42-11,2) (p=0,04) y trauma craneoencefálico 4,5 días (IC 95 % 1,56-7,44) (p=0,043) como causas de ingreso y la aparición de insuficiencia renal aguda Conclusiones:  La proporción de incidencia de insuficiencia renal aguda identificada en el presente estudio, es similar a estudios realizados en Colombia, sin embargo, difiere de otros realizados en el exterior. La sepsis fue el diagnóstico con mayor frecuencia entre los pacientes con insuficiencia renal aguda, seguido de la insuficiencia cardíaca aguda. Se encontró significancia estadística en el desarrollo de la insuficiencia renal aguda y la administración de nitroglicerina.

Abstract Objective: To quantify the incidence and factors of exposure related to the development of acute kidney failure in hospitalized patients in the adult intensive care unit during three months. Materials and methods: An epidemiological study of quantitative type with two components was performed: descriptive longitudinal study and a retrospective cohort study, AKIN criteria were used, two health care institutions (one private and one public) participated. Results: 186 patients were included with an average age of 56.2 +/- 20,14 years. An incidence of 21.6% was found (IC 95 % 17-30) of acute kidney failure and a rate of incidence of 29.2 for every 100 patients / year of exposure. On average the creatinine elevation was of 0.47 mg/dL and the urine output was of 0.37 cc/kg/h, days of event occurrence 3.1 (IC 95 % 2.48-3.74). A significant statistical relationship was found between acute heart failure 6.84 days (IC 95% 4.21-9.48) (p=0.026), post-operatives 9.82 days (IC 95 % 8.42-11.2) (p=0.04) and traumatic brain injury 4.5 days (IC 95 % 1.56-7.44) (p=0.043), as causes of admission and appearance of acute kidney failure. Conclusions:  The incidence proportion of acute kidney failure identified in the present study, is similar to other studies performed in Colombia, however, it differs from studies performed in other countries. Sepsis was the most frequent diagnosis among patients with acute kidney failure, followed by acute heart failure. Statistical significance was found in the development of acute kidney failure and the intake of nitroglycerin.

Individuals with acute heart failure exacerbation often experience a deterioration in renal function. We sought to determine whether this deterioration is ischemic in nature and detectable by sensitive urine biomarkers neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1). We measured serial biomarker levels and evaluated the associations of these biomarkers with renal recovery in a cohort of hospitalized patients with acute heart failure exacerbation.

Abstract Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) is frequently present in patients admitted for acute heart failure (AHF). Several studies have evaluated the mortality risk and have concluded poor prognosis in any patient with AKI admitted for AHF. For the most part, the additional morbidity and mortality burden in AHF patients with AKI has been attributed to the concomitant comorbidities, and/or interventions. Purpose We sought to determine the impact of acute kidney injury (AKI) on in-hospital outcomes in patients presenting with acute heart failure (AHF). We identified isolated AKI patients after excluding other concomitant diagnoses and procedures, which may contribute to an increased risk of mortality and morbidity. Methods Data from the National Inpatient Sample (2012- 14) were used to identify patients with the principal diagnosis of AHF and the concomitant secondary diagnosis of AKI. Propensity score matching was performed on 30 baseline variables to identify a matched cohort. The outcome of interest was in-hospital mortality. We further evaluated in-hospital procedures and complications. Results Of 1,470,450 patients admitted with AHF, 24.3% had AKI. After propensity matching a matched cohort of 356,940 patients was identified. In this matched group, the AKI group had significantly higher in-hospital mortality (3.8% vs 1.7%, p<0.001). Complications such as sepsis and cardiac arrest were higher in the AKI group. Similarly, in-hospital procedures including CABG, mechanical ventilation and IABP were performed more in the AKI group. AHF patients with AKI had longer in-hospital stay of ∼1.7 days. Conclusions In a propensity score-matched cohort of AHF with and without AKI, the risk of in-hospital mortality was >2-fold in the AKI group. Healthcare utilization and burden of complications were higher in the AKI group. Funding Acknowledgement Type of funding source: None

Background: Worsening renal function (WRF) during the hospitalization has been recognized as a predictor for worse outcomes in patients with acute heart failure (AHF). However, in recent years, elevation of serum creatinine during the acute phase of the treatment is accepted as a sign of efficient decongestion. Herein, we aimed to evaluate the phenotypic difference in this heterogeneous phenomenon by using clustering analysis. Methods: A total of 4000 patient data from the West-Tokyo Heart Failure Registry, a multicenter, prospective registry for consecutive AHF hospitalization were analyzed. Within 632 patients identified to have WRF (17%; defined as elevation of eGFR over 20 percent during the hospitalization), we applied two-step clustering analysis of phenotypic data (37 variables) to define and characterize phenotypically distinct population. After identification of phenotypically distinct subgroups, survival analysis with Cox proportional hazard was conducted to elucidate the impact of the classification on composite outcomes of heart failure re-hospitalization and all cause death. Results: The analysis identified four distinct populations (group 1-4) that distinctly differed in terms of clinical characteristics: Group1 composed of patients with reduced ejection fraction (EF), while group 2 to 4 were composed of patients with mid-range and preserved EF. Group 1 patients also had lowest eGFR and blood pressure at the time of admission. Group 1 and 2 patients were younger, but had higher plasma BNP compared to 3 and 4. Among these subgroups, group 1 had the worst, and group 2 had the most favorable prognosis. The difference in prognosis between these two groups was significant after adjustments with known prognostic factors (hazard ratio, 0.58; 95 percent confidence interval, 0.35-0.97). Conclusion: WRF represents heterogeneous condition; our clustering analysis revealed four phenotypically distinct population with significant difference in their prognosis. Further investigation is needed to assess its therapeutic implication.
