Abstract Background and Aims Although Osteofascial compartment syndrome is rare, it can cause severe complications, including septic shock and acute kidney injury. Most commonly found on the palmar side of the forearm and lower leg. This article reported two cases of septic shock with acute kidney injury caused by osteofascial compartment syndrome, and explored the application of hemoperfusion combined with continuous renal replacement therapy in these two severe patients. Method Two young men, patient A was 38 years old and patient B was 44 years old. Hospitalized in June 2016 and February 2018, respectively. Previous healthy, after questioning, patient A had a history of type 1 diabetes and patient B had a history of gout. Patient A had a history of being beaten by his wife, patient B has no clear history of injury. Patient A showed swelling and pain in the right forearm and patient B showed swelling and pain in the right lower leg. After admission, they quickly developed shock, oliguria, acute kidney injury, multiple organ dysfunction. They were received fluid resuscitation, vasopressors, anti-infectives, respiratory support, nutritional support, and vital signs monitoring. Blood culture of patient A showed a case of group A hemolytic streptococcus, patient B showed streptococcus pyogenes and staphylococcus hemolytic. Patient A was performed CRRT for 3 days, combined with two hours hemoperfusion (HA-330, Jafron, Zhuhai City, China) on the first day of CRRT, once every 24 hours for two days. Patient B was performed CRRT for 16 days. combined with two hours hemoperfusion (HA-330, Jafron, Zhuhai City, China) on the first day of CRRT, once every 24 hours for two days. Both patients underwent multiple orthopaedic surgeries. Patient A underwent right upper limb amputation and patient B underwent right thigh amputation. Results After hemoperfusion, the amount of norepinephrine was significantly reduced, and the circulation became stable. Finally, two patients improved and were discharged from the hospital, and their renal function returned to normal. Conclusion Once the osteofascial compartment syndrome is diagnosed, the fascia should be decompressed immediately. After local incision and decompression, blood circulation is improved, and a large number of toxins from necrotic tissue enter the blood circulation, which can lead to serious complications such as sepsis, shock, acute kidney injury, and multiple organ failure. Renal replacement therapy and amputation surgery may save lives. Hemoperfusion can reduce the amount of norepinephrine, improve circulation and win surgical opportunities.

Abstract Background: The influence of PAD4 concentration and its polymorphisms in SAKI development are poorly evaluated. Thus, the aim of this study is to evaluate the PAD 4 concentration and PADI4 polymorphisms, as predictors of AKI development, need for renal replacement therapy (RRT), and mortality in patients with septic shock. Methods: We included all individuals aged ≥ 18 years, with the diagnosis of septic shock at ICU admission. Blood samples were taken within the first 24 hours of the patient’s admission to determine serum PAD4 concentration and its polymorphism PADI4 (rs11203367) and (rs874881). Patients were followed during their ICU stay and the development of SAKI was evaluated. Among the patients in whom SAKI developed, mortality and need for RRT were also evaluated. Results: 99 patients were included in the analysis. SAKI developed in approximately 51.5% of patients during the ICU stay; of these, 21.5% required RRT and 80% died. There was no difference between PAD4 concentration (p = 0.116) and its polymorphisms rs11203367 (p = 0.910) and rs874881 (p = 0.769) in patients in whom SAKI did or did not develop. However, PAD4 had a positive correlation with plasma urea concentration (r = 0.269 and p = 0.007) and creatinine (r = 0.284 and p = 0.004). The PAD4 concentration and PADI4 polymorphisms were also not associated with RRT and with mortality in patients with SAKI. Conclusion: PAD4 concentration and its polymorphisms were not associated with SAKI development, the need for RRT, or mortality in patients with septic shock. However, PAD4 concentrations were associated with creatinine and urea levels in these patients.

Renal dysfunction is known to be frequently a component of multiple organ failure, a complex syndrome affecting the most severely ill critical patients. Bidirectional interaction between the kidneys and other organs has always been suspected; evidence suggests that severe kidney injury is an important protagonist in acute illness, even when managed by dialysis. In fact, if it seems that increasing the dose of renal replacement therapy does not reduce mortality, it could be inferred that acute kidney injury influences mortality through means that are not reversed by conventional renal support, either because the putative culprit toxins are not removed by renal replacement therapy or because renal replacement therapy is started too late to prevent these effects. It is known that the kidneys exert effects on other organs, such as the lung, liver, heart, and brain, in a process called 'crosstalk'. This effect means that the kidney is not only a victim, but also a culprit regarding the malfunction of other organs. This chapter will detail some traditional aspects of different renal replacement therapy modalities and prescription schedules, but it will also describe the most recent evidence on the management and support of the kidney during failure of other organs.

Traditionally, the etiology of acute kidney injury (AKI) is considered in terms of prerenal, renal, and obstructive causes. However, this categorization is less useful in the ICU, where the etiology of AKI is usually multifactorial and often occurs in the context of multi-organ failure. Hypotension, nephrotoxic drugs, and severe sepsis or septic shock are the most important identifiable factors. Less frequently encountered causes include pancreatitis, abdominal compartment syndrome, and rhabdomyolysis. Primary intrinsic renal disease such as glomerulonephritis is extremely uncommon. A previous history of cirrhosis, cardiac failure, or haematological malignancy, and age >65 years, are important risk factors. This chapter covers symptoms, complications, diagnosis, investigations, prognosis, and treatment of renal failure in the ITU.

Wasp stings are common in our part of the world and may cause complications ranging from mild local reactions to fatal anaphylaxis. Severe cases may present with multisystem involvement causing acute kidney injury, hepatic dysfunction, clotting abnormalities, rhabdomyolysis or even death. However, cases with acute pancreatitis as a complication of wasp sting is not usual and have been very rarely reported. We present a case of a fifty-two-year-old lady with the history of multiple wasp stings followed by multiple organ dysfunction and acute pancreatitis with complete recovery following immediate conservative measures. Keywords: Acute kidney injury; multiple organ dysfunction; pancreatitis; wasp; sting

Of all cases of acute kidney injury (AKI), 45-70% are associated with sepsis. Lethality in sepsis-associated AKI requiring renal replacement therapy (RRT) ranges from 40 to 50%, and in AKI combined with other organ dysfunctions - 60-80%. In order to improve the results of treatment of sepsis and septic shock, various methods of extracorporeal detoxification (ECD) have been developed. The effectiveness of these methods is controversial. In the treatment of sepsis, RRT is used not only to replace the impaired detoxification function of kidneys, but also to remove excess cytokines from the systemic bloodstream. The literature describes mainly positive results of the use of dialyzers with an adsorbing membrane, however, these data do not have the necessary degree of evidence. Currently, there are no clear criteria for the initiation of RRT, its duration and doses, the choice of methodology determined by specific clinical and laboratory parameters, and staging of this therapy. All this highlights the need for further research in this field.
