[PMID: 37861865 DOI: 10.1007/s00467-023-06161-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/25/2023] [Revised: 08/29/2023] [Accepted: 08/29/2023] [Indexed: 10/21/2023]
Abstract
Over the past two decades, our understanding of the impact of acute kidney injury, disorders of fluid balance, and their interplay have increased significantly. In recent years, the epidemiology and impact of fluid balance, including the pathologic state of fluid overload on outcomes has been studied extensively across multiple pediatric and neonatal populations. A detailed understating of fluid balance has become increasingly important as it is recognized as a target for intervention to continue to work to improve outcomes in these populations. In this review, we provide an update on the epidemiology and outcomes associated with fluid balance disorders and the development of fluid overload in children with acute kidney injury (AKI). This will include a detailed review of consensus definitions of fluid balance, fluid overload, and the methodologies to define them, impact of fluid balance on the diagnosis of AKI and the concept of fluid corrected serum creatinine. This review will also provide detailed descriptions of future directions and the changing paradigms around fluid balance and AKI in critical care nephrology, including the incorporation of the sequential utilization of risk stratification, novel biomarkers, and functional kidney tests (furosemide stress test) into research and ultimately clinical care. Finally, the review will conclude with novel methods currently under study to assess fluid balance and distribution (point of care ultrasound and bioimpedance).

Pediatr Nephrol 2024:10.1007/s00467-024-06387-5. [PMID: 38691152 DOI: 10.1007/s00467-024-06387-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2024] [Revised: 04/10/2024] [Accepted: 04/10/2024] [Indexed: 05/03/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Furosemide stress test (FST) is a novel functional biomarker for predicting severe acute kidney injury (AKI); however, pediatric studies are limited. METHODS Children 3 months to 18 years of age admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) of a tertiary care hospital from Nov 2019 to July 2021 were screened and those who developed AKI stage 1 or 2 within 7 days of admission underwent FST (intravenous furosemide 1 mg/kg). Urine output was measured hourly for the next 6 h; a value > 2 ml/kg within the first 2 h was deemed furosemide responsive. Other biomarkers like plasma neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and proenkephalin (PENK) were also evaluated. RESULTS Of the 480 admitted patients, 51 developed AKI stage 1 or 2 within 7 days of admission and underwent FST. Nine of these patients were furosemide non-responsive. Thirteen (25.5%) patients (eight of nine from FST non-responsive group) developed stage 3 AKI within 7 days of FST, nine (17.6%) of whom (seven from non-responsive group) required kidney support therapy (KST). FST emerged as a good biomarker for predicting stage 3 AKI and need for KST with area-under-the-curve (AUC) being 0.93 ± 0.05 (95% CI 0.84-1.0) and 0.96 ± 0.03 (95% CI 0.9-1.0), respectively. FST outperformed NGAL and PENK in predicting AKI stage 3 and KST; however, the combination did not improve the diagnostic accuracy. CONCLUSIONS Furosemide stress test is a simple, inexpensive, and robust biomarker for predicting stage 3 AKI and KST need in critically ill children. Further research is required to identify the best FST cut-off in children.

A proposed framework for advancing acute kidney injury risk stratification and diagnosis in children: a report from the 26th Acute Disease Quality Initiative (ADQI) conference. Pediatr Nephrol 2024; 39:929-939.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) in children is associated with increased morbidity, reduced health-related quality of life, greater resource utilization, and higher mortality. Improvements in the timeliness and precision of AKI diagnosis in children are needed. In this report, we highlight existing, novel, and on-the-horizon diagnostic and risk-stratification tools for pediatric AKI, and outline opportunities for integration into clinical practice. We also summarize pediatric-specific high-risk diagnoses and exposures for AKI, as well as the potential role of real-time risk stratification and clinical decision support to improve outcomes. Lastly, the key characteristics of important pediatric AKI phenotypes will be outlined. Throughout, we identify key knowledge gaps, which represent prioritized areas of focus for future research that will facilitate a comprehensive, timely and personalized approach to pediatric AKI diagnosis and management.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a prototypical example of a common syndrome in critical illness defined by consensus. The consensus definition for AKI, traditionally defined using only serum creatinine and urine output, was needed to standardize the description for epidemiology and to harmonize eligibility for clinical trials. However, AKI is not a simple disease, but rather a complex and multi-factorial syndrome characterized by a wide spectrum of pathobiology. AKI is now recognized to be comprised of numerous sub-phenotypes that can be discriminated through shared features such as etiology, prognosis, or common pathobiological mechanisms of injury and damage. The characterization of sub-phenotypes can serve to enable prognostic enrichment (i.e., identify subsets of patients more likely to share an outcome of interest) and predictive enrichment (identify subsets of patients more likely to respond favorably to a given therapy). Existing and emerging biomarkers will aid in discriminating sub-phenotypes of AKI, facilitate expansion of diagnostic criteria, and be leveraged to realize personalized approaches to management, particularly for recognizing treatment-responsive mechanisms (i.e., endotypes) and targets for intervention (i.e., treatable traits). Specific biomarkers (e.g., serum renin; olfactomedin 4 (OLFM4); interleukin (IL)-9) may further enable identification of pathobiological mechanisms to serve as treatment targets. However, even non-specific biomarkers of kidney injury (e.g., neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin, NGAL; [tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 2, TIMP2]·[insulin like growth factor binding protein 7, IGFBP7]; kidney injury molecule 1, KIM-1) can direct greater precision management for specific sub-phenotypes of AKI. This review will summarize these evolving concepts and recent innovations in precision medicine approaches to the syndrome of AKI in critical illness, along with providing examples of how they can be leveraged to guide patient care.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is seen frequently in hospitalized patients and is associated with increased risk of mortality and adverse short- and long-term renal and systemic complications. Emerging data suggest that AKI is a heterogenous syndrome with a variety of underlying causes, predisposing illnesses, and range of clinical trajectories and outcomes. This mini-review aims to discuss emerging AKI subphenotype classifications as our understanding of the heterogeneity and underlying pathophysiology has improved.
