Acute Kidney Injury (AKI): definition

AKI is defined as any of the following:

• Increase in SCr by ≥0.3 mg/dl (≥ 26.5 µmol/l) within 48 hours; or

• Increase in SCr to ≥1.5 times baseline, which is known or presumed to have occurred within the prior 7 days; or

• Urine volume <0.5 ml/kg/h for 6 hours.

Evalution of current AKI

Increased frequency of adverse prognostic forms of AKI:

• Inhospital mortality increased ≥2 times, associated with sepsis, cardiopulmonary distress and multiple organ dysfunctions

• Increased group of “AKI on CKD“

• Increased frequency of non-oligouric AKI (50 - 70% of the AKI)

• Increased number of “catabolic” form of AKI

High mortality in the ICU

• Depending on definition of AKI, up to 50-60% of patients in the ICU

• Up to 70% of these will require RRT

• Independent risk factor for mortality, 50 - 60% mortality in critically ill

AKI after cardiac surgery (n=813)

• According to the RIFLE criteria, 19.3% of patients had renal impairment after cardiac surgery.

• a 90-day mortality rate according to RIFLE:

Risk – 8,0%;

Injury – 21,4%;

Failure – 32,5%.

AKI - treatment

• Treatment of AKI is principally supportive -- renal replacement therapy (RRT) indicated in patients with severe AKI.

• Goal: optimization of fluid & electrolyte balance

• Paranteral nutrition during the oligouria

• Multiple modalities of RRT:

– Intermittent hemodialysis (IHD),

– continuous renal replacement therapies (CRRTs)

– hybrid therapies, ie sustained low-efficiency dialysis (SLED)

Hybrid

Sürekli Venovenöz hemofiltrasyon (CVVH)

CVVH clearance (K) KHF = Qf x S Qf = Ultrafiltration rate S = Sieving coefficient S = Cef/Cb Cef = Concentration in Effluent Cb = Concentration in blood

Sürekli venovenöz Hemodiyafiltrasyon (CVVHDF)

CVVHDF clearance (K) KHDF = (Qf x S) + (Qd x Sd) Qf = Ultrafiltration rate S = Sieving coefficient S = Cef/Cb Cef = Concentration in Effluent Cb = Concentration in blood Qd = Dialysate rate Sd = Dialysate saturation

Pre-dilüsyon ve Post dilüsyon

Replasman sıvısı, filtreye girmeden verilir ise predilüsyon, filtreden sonra verilir ise postdilüsyon denilir

The choice of modalities of RRT

Optimal modality of renal replacement therapy in acute renal failure according to the clinical status of the patient. IIUF: intermittent isolated ultrafiltration; CEPD: continuous equilibrium peritoneal dialysis; TPE: therapeutic plasma exchange.

У гемодинамически стабильных пациентов, вид заместительной почечной терапии не влиял на важные исходы лечения пациентов, и поэтому преимущество CRRT над IRRT у таких больных не обосновано по имеющимся данным. Пациенты, получившие лечения CRRT имели лучшие гемодинамикие параметры как СрАД.

CLINICAL PRACTICE GUIDELINES - AKI Treatment facilities & referral to renal services

• Guideline 5.1- Renal services should work together with other specialties to develop guidelines for the management of AKI. These should include clear guidelines with respect to when to request a renal referral. (1A)

• Guideline 5.2 – Specialist renal advice should be given with consultant renal physician input. (1B)

• Guideline 5.5 – Renal physicians and intensivists should work together to provide care for patients with AKI on the intensive care unit (ICU). Nephrology trainees should be trained to care for acutely ill patients with AKI. (2C)
