Continuous Arteriovenous Hemofiltration

Continuous arteriovenous hemofiltration is a form of renal replacement therapy whereby small molecular weight solutes and water are removed from the blood via convection, alleviating fluid overload and, to a degree, azotemia. It has been used in many adults and several children. However, in patients with multisystem organ dysfunction and acute renal failure, continuous arteriovenous hemofiltration alone may not be sufficient for control of azotemia; intermittent hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis may be undesirable in such unstable patients. Recently, the technique of continuous arteriovenous hemodiafiltration has been used in many severely ill adults. We have used continuous arteriovenous hemodiafiltration in four patients at Children's Hospital Medical Center. Patient 1 suffered perinatal asphyxia and oliguria while on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Patients 2 and 4 both had Burkitt lymphoma and tumor lysis syndrome. Patient 3 had septic shock several months after a bone marrow transplant. All had acute renal failure and contraindications to hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis. A blood pump was used in three of the four patients, while spontaneous arterial flow was adequate in one. Continuous arteriovenous hemodiafiltration was performed for varying lengths of time, from 11 hours to 7 days. No patient had worsening of cardiovascular status or required increased pressor support during continuous arteriovenous hemodiafiltration. The two survivors (patients 2 and 4) eventually recovered normal renal function. Continuous arteriovenous hemodiafiltration is a safe and effective means of renal replacement therapy in the critically ill child. It may be ideal for control of the metabolic and electrolyte abnormalities of the tumor lysis syndrome.

Abstract Background: The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) is a simple laboratory diagnostic tool for estimating systemic inflammation. It remains unclear, if renal function affects ESR, thereby compromising its validity. This pilot study aims to compare prevalence and extent of ESR elevations in hospitalized patients with or without kidney disease. In addition, the impact of renal replacement therapy (RRT) modality on ESR was determined.Methods: In this single-center, retrospective study, patients were screened for ESR values. ESR was compared in patients with and without renal disease and/or RRT. In addition, ESR was correlated with other inflammatory markers, the extent of renal insufficiency and clinical characteristics.Results: A total of 203 patients was identified, showing an overall elevated ESR in the study population (mean 51.7±34.6 mm/h). ESR was significantly increased in all patients with severe infection, active vasculitis or cancer, respectively, independent from renal function. Interestingly, there was no difference in ESR between patients with and without kidney disease or those having received a prior renal transplant or being on hemodialysis. However, ESRD patients treated with peritoneal dialysis presented with a significantly higher ESR (78.3±33.1 mm/h, p<0.001), while correlation with other inflammatory markers was not persuasive.Conclusions: We showed that ESR: (1) does not differ between various stages of renal insufficiency; (2) may be helpful as a screening tool also in patients with renal insufficiency; and (3) is significantly increased in ESRD patients on peritoneal dialysis per se, while it seems not to be affected by hemodialysis or renal transplantation (see graphical abstract as supplementary material).

AbstractIn renal replacement therapy, different methods are available: hemodialysis (HD), peritoneal dialysis (PD), and kidney transplantation (KTx). In addition, variants can be used: HD as a home HD or center HD, PD as a conventional PD or automated (cycler) PD, KTx as a potentially short-term predictable living donation or conventional donor kidney donation. The patient and his familiar or caring environment must be informed accordingly. This means first of all: information about which procedures of kidney replacement therapy are possible and can be offered. Then the specific risks associated with each procedure should be elucidated (e. g. HD and shunt bleeding, PD and peritonitis, KTx and infections/neoplasias). This necessarily includes a structured documentation of the educating center/doctor about the communicated information and decisions taken.

Background Failure of peritoneal dialysis (PD) results in poor quality of life and worsening morbidity in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Traditionally, hospital-based conventional hemodialysis has been the only option for this patient population. We hypothesized that nocturnal home hemodialysis (NHD), 3 – 6 sessions per week, 6 – 8 hours per session, is a suitable alternative salvage therapy for this vulnerable patient group. Methods This is a descriptive cohort study of all consecutive ESRD patients failing PD that were converted to NHD at the University Health Network and Humber River Regional Hospital from 2003 to 2005. Our primary objective was to describe the changes in clinical and biochemical indices before and after conversion from PD to NHD. Results 69 patients required transfer from PD to another form of renal replacement therapy during the period of interest. Our pilot cohort included 8 ESRD patients (5 males, 3 females; age 53 ± 7 years). Mean duration on PD was 4.8 ± 4.6 years. NHD delivered a higher dose of dialysis, as reflected by lower plasma creatinine concentration 1 year after beginning NHD (from 1107 ± 312 μmol/L with PD to 649 ± 309 μmol/L, p = 0.01) and a rise in standardized Kt/V (from 2.21 ± 0.73 with PD to 4.49 ± 1.92 after 6 months of NHD, to 4.51 ± 1.77 after 1 year of NHD; p < 0.001). There was a progressive and sustained rise in plasma albumin after conversion to NHD (from 31 ± 4 g/L with PD to 36 ± 4 g/L after 6 months of NHD, to 39 ± 2 g/L after 1 year of NHD; p = 0.001). Hemoglobin concentrations increased (from 102 ± 13 to 125 ± 7 g/L, p = 0.03), while erythropoietin requirement tended to fall (from 17500 ± 8669 to 9197 ± 7573 U/week). Plasma phosphate fell (from 2.1 ± 0.6 to 1.1 ± 0.3 mmol/L, p = 0.01) despite a decrease in phosphate binder requirement. Blood pressure profile also tended to improve after conversion to NHD. Conclusion Nocturnal HD represents a promising, viable, alternative renal replacement therapy for patients experiencing PD failure. The clinical impact of transferring ESRD patients failing PD to NHD deserves further investigation.

Randomized Controlled Studies

This article examines the roles of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) versus automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) as first-line renal replacement therapy. To date, no high-quality large-scale randomized controlled studies have compared CAPD with APD as first-line therapy. However, a discussion on this issue is important so that nephrologists can decide and patients can have a choice of modality on which to start dialysis, especially in the context of health care economics. We review the literature and present Hong Kong as the model of a “CAPD first” policy, an appealing, cost-effective approach for any country. An ideal renal replacement therapy should provide optimal survival, lowest possible risk for comorbidity, highest level of quality of life, and equally important, acceptable cost to society. When we consider this subject in the context that all patients should be started on one first-line modality, the data suggest that a “CAPD first” policy has all these advantages, with APD probably having the edge only with regard to patient preference. The present review highlights preservation of residual renal function, removal and balancing of sodium, incidence of peritonitis, peritoneal membrane transport status, patient rehabilitation, and financial issues in demonstrating that a “CAPD first” policy is the model that should be adopted.
