Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common in patients treated with veno‐arterial (VA‐) or veno‐venous (VV‐) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). In this setting, the use of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) can help to optimize fluid status but may also negatively impact on patients' outcome. In contrast, the relationship between AKI, CRRT, and survival in critically ill adult patients receiving ECMO is not well defined. The institutional ECMO database (n = 162) from November 2008 to December 2013, excluding patients with ICU survival <24 hours was reviewed. Demographics, co‐morbidities, and concomitant therapies for all patients were collected. AKI was defined according to the Acute Kidney Injury Network (AKIN) criteria. ICU mortality was noted. Data were retrieved for 135 patients (79 with VA‐ECMO and 56 with VV‐ECMO). Of these, 95 developed AKI, 63 (47%) of whom required CRRT; thus three groups of patients were identified: (a) no AKI; (b) AKI without CRRT (AKINOCRRT); and (c) CRRT with AKI (AKICRRT). AKINOCCRT patients were more likely to have preexisting heart disease, to be more severely ill, and to be treated with VA‐ECMO than those without AKI. AKICRRT patients were also more likely to be treated with VA‐ECMO, had more organ dysfunction at the time of ECMO insertion, and needed more transfusions and inotropic agents than patients without AKI. ICU mortality was 53% (72/135) and was similar in the three groups, even when different AKI stages or VA/VV‐ECMO were analyzed separately. In this study, the use of CRRT was not associated with an increased mortality in an adult population of patients treated with ECMO, even after adjustment for confounders. 相似文献
Acute renal failure (ARF) is associated with increased mortality in pediatric extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). The aim of this study was to identify predictors of ARF during ECMO in pediatric patients after cardiac surgery. A retrospective study analyzed 42 children (≤15 years) after cardiac surgery requiring venous‐arterial ECMO between December 2008 and December 2014 at Fuwai Hospital. ARF was defined as ≥300% rise in serum creatinine (SCr) concentration from baseline or application of dialysis. Multivariate logistic regression was performed to identify the predictors of ARF during ECMO. A total of 42 children (age, interquartile range [IQR], 13.0 [7.2–29.8] months; weight, IQR, 8.5 [6.7–11.0] kg) after cardiac surgery requiring ECMO were included in this study. The total survival rate was 52.4%, and the incidence of ARF was 40.5%. As the result of univariate analysis, ECMO duration, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, maximum free hemoglobin (FHB) during ECMO, lactate level, and mean blood pressure before initiation of ECMO were entered in multiple logistic regression analysis. In multiple logistic regression analysis, FHB during ECMO (OR 1.136, 95% CI 1.023–1.261) and lactate level before initiation of ECMO (OR 1.602, 95% CI 1.025–2.502) were risk factors for ARF during ECMO after pediatric cardiac surgery. There was a linear correlation between maximum SCr and maximum FHB (Pearson's r = 0.535, P = 0.001). Maximum SCr during ECMO has also a linear correlation with lactate level before initiation of ECMO (Pearson's r = 0.342, P = 0.044). Increased FHB during ECMO and high lactate level before initiation of ECMO were risk factors for ARF during ECMO in pediatric patients after cardiac surgery. 相似文献
Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) has given clinicians an important option in the care of critically ill patients. The slow and continuous dialysate and ultrafiltrate flow rates that are employed with CRRT can yield drug clearances similar to an analogous glomerular filtration rate of the native kidneys. Advantages such as superior volume control, excellent metabolic control, and hemodynamic tolerance by critically ill patients are well documented, but an understanding of drug dosing for CRRT is still a bit of a mystery. Although some pharmaceutical companies have dedicated postmarket research in this direction, many pharmaceutical companies have chosen not to pursue this information as it is not mandated and represents a relatively small part of their market. This lack of valuable information has created many challenges in the care of the critically ill patient as intermittent hemodialysis drug dosing recommendations cannot be extrapolated to CRRT. This drug dosing review will highlight factors that clinicians should consider when determining a pharmacotherapy regimen for a patient receiving CRRT. 相似文献
Donors after cardiac death (DCD) could increase the organ pool. Data supports good long‐term renal graft survival. However, DCDs are <10% of deceased donors in the United States, due to delayed graft function, and primary nonfunction. These complications are minimized by extracorporeal support after cardiac death (ECS‐DCD). This study assesses immediate and acute renal function from different donor types. DCDs kidneys were recovered by conventional rapid recovery or by ECS, and transplanted into nephrectomized healthy swine. Warm ischemia of 10 and 30 min were evaluated. Swine living donors were controls (LVD). ECS‐DCDs were treated with 90 min of perfusion until organ recovery. After procurement, kidneys were cold storage 4–6 h. Renal vascular resistance (RVR), urine output (UO), urine protein concentration (UrPr) and creatinine clearance (CrCl), were collected during 4 h posttransplantation. All grafts functioned with adequate renal blood flow for 4 h. RVR at 4 h posttransplant returned to baseline only in the LVD group (0.36 mmHg/mL/min ± 0.03). RVR was higher in all DCDs (0.66 mmHg/mL/min ± 0.13), without differences between them. UO was >50 mL/h in all DCDs, except in DCD‐30 (6.8 mL/h ± 1.7). DCD‐30 had lower CrCl (0.9 mL/min ± 0.2) and higher UrPr >200 mg/dL, compared to other DCDs >10 mL/min and <160 mg/dL, respectively. Normothermic ECS can resuscitate kidneys to transplantable status after 30 min of cardiac arrest/WI. 相似文献
The disease spectrum leading to pediatric renal replacement therapy (RRT) provision has broadened over the last decade. In the 1980's, intrinsic renal disease and burns comprised the most common pediatric acute kidney injury (AKI) etiologies. More recent data demonstrate that pediatric AKI most often results from complications of other systemic diseases resulting from the advancements in congenital heart surgery, neonatal care, and bone marrow and solid organ transplantation. In addition, RRT modality preferences to treat critically ill children have shifted from peritoneal dialysis to continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) as a result of improvements in CRRT technologies. Currently, multicenter prospective outcome studies for critically ill children with AKI are sorely lacking. The aims of this paper are to review the pediatric specific causes necessitating RRT provision with an emphasis on emerging practice patterns with respect to modality and the timing of treatment, and focus upon the application of the different RRT modalities and assessment of the outcome of children with AKI who receive RRT. 相似文献
PPM was highly associated with long-term all-cause mortality. Small Aortic Valve Annulus MDT (SAVA-MDT) exploring options to prevent PPM, including the implantation of newer generation prosthetic valves, aortic root enlargement and TAVI, should be established.
