Abstract
BACKGROUND In the 21st century, 13% of patients undergoing open abdominal surgery, 25% of patients undergoing heart surgery, and 57% of patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) are affected by acute kidney injury (AKI). METHODS This prospective observational study included patients admitted directly to the ICU between June 2021 and December 2021. RESULTS A total of 81 patients were enrolled after thoracic and abdominal (non-cardiac) surgery; 36 patients (44.4%) were diagnosed with AKI occurred within 7 days after surgery. Six-hour postoperative central venous pressure(CVP) was a risk factor for AKI in thoracic and abdominal (non-cardiac) postoperative patients (odds ratio [OR], 1.418; 95% confidence intervals [CI], 1.106-1.819; P = 0.006). Six-hour postoperative vein impedance index(VII) and CVP were significantly positively correlated (P = 0.031). The combination of 6-h postoperative VII with CVP (VII ≥0.34, CVP ≥7.5 mmHg) showed an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.787, In the subgroup analysis of patients with 6-h postoperative CVP <7.5 mmHg, there was a significant statistical difference in 6-h postoperative VII between the groups and those without AKI (P = 0.048). At 6-h postoperative CVP <7.5 mmHg, VII of ≥0.44 had a predictive value for AKI after thoracic and abdominal (non-cardiac) surgery, with an AUC of 0.669, a sensitivity of 41.2%, and a specificity of 94.4%. CONCLUSION Six-hour postoperative CVP combined with VII can better predict the occurrence of AKI occurred within 7 days after thoracic and abdominal (non-cardiac) surgery but cannot predict the severity of AKI.

Impact of central venous pressure during the first 24 h and its time-course on the lactate levels and clinical outcomes of patients who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting. Front Cardiovasc Med 2023; 10:1036285. [PMID: 37332578 PMCID: PMC10269904 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2023.1036285] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2022] [Accepted: 05/09/2023] [Indexed: 06/20/2023] Open
Abstract
Purpose Previous studies have revealed that elevated mean central venous pressure (CVP) was associated with poor prognosis in specific patient groups. But no study explored the impact of mean CVP on prognosis of patients who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting surgery (CABG). The purpose of this study was to investigate the impacts of elevated CVP and its time-course on clinical outcomes of patients who underwent CABG and potential mechanisms. Methods A retrospective cohort study was performed based on the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (MIMIC-IV) database. We first identified the CVP during specific period with the most predictive value. Patients were categorized into the low-CVP and high-CVP group on the basis of the cut-off value. A propensity score matching was used to adjust covariates. The primary outcome was a 28-day mortality. The secondary outcomes were 1-year mortality and in-hospital mortality, the length of intensive care unit (ICU) stay and hospitalization, acute kidney injury incidence, use of vasopressors, duration of ventilation and oxygen index, and lactate levels and clearance. Patients in the high-CVP group were categorized into the "second day CVP ≤ 13.46 mmHg" group and the "second day CVP > 13.46 mmHg" group, respectively, and the clinical outcomes were the same as before. Results A total of 6,255 patients who underwent CABG were picked from the MIMIC-IV database, of which 5,641 CABG patients were monitored by CVP measurement during the first 2 days after ICU admission and 206,016 CVP records were extracted from the database. The mean CVP during the first 24 h was the most correlative and statistically significant for the 28-day mortality. The risk of the 28-day mortality was increased in the high-CVP group [OR 3.45 (95% CI: 1.77-6.70; p < 0.001)]. Patients with elevated CVP levels had worse secondary outcomes. The maximum of lactate levels and lactate clearance were also poor in the high-CVP group. For patients in the high-CVP group during the first 24 h, whose mean CVP during the second day lowered to less than the cut-off value, had better clinical outcomes. Conclusions An elevated mean CVP during the first 24 h was correlated with poor outcomes in patients who underwent CABG. The potential mechanisms may be influencing the lactate levels and lactate clearance through the impact on afterload of tissue perfusion. Patients whose mean CVP during the second day dropped to less than the cut-off value had favorable prognosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pediatric liver transplantation is an important modality for treating biliary atresia. The overall survival (OS) rate of pediatric liver transplantation has significantly improved compared with that of 20 years ago, but it is still unsatisfactory. The anesthesia strategy of maintaining low central venous pressure (CVP) has shown a positive effect on prognosis in adult liver transplantation. However, this relationship remains unclear in pediatric liver transplantation. Thus, this study was conducted to review the data of pediatric living-donor liver transplantation to analyze the associations of different CVP levels with the prognosis of recipients. METHODS This was a retrospective study and the patients were divided into two groups according to CVP levels after abdominal closure: low CVP (LCVP) (≤ 10 cmH2O, n = 470) and high CVP (HCVP) (> 10 cmH2O, n = 242). The primary outcome measured in the study was the overall survival rate. The secondary outcomes included the duration of mechanical ventilation in the intensive care unit (ICU), length of stay in the ICU, and postoperative stay in the hospital. Patient demographic and perioperative data were collected and compared between the two groups. Kaplan-Meier curves were constructed to determine the associations of different CVP levels with the survival rate. RESULTS In the study, 712 patients, including 470 in the LCVP group and 242 in the HCVP group, were enrolled. After propensity score matching, 212 pairs remained in the group. The LCVP group showed a higher overall survival rate than the HCVP group in the Kaplan-Meier curves and multivariate Cox regression analyses (P = 0.018), and the HCVP group had a hazard ratio of 2.445 (95% confidence interval, 1.163-5.140). CONCLUSION This study confirmed that a low-CVP level at the end of surgery is associated with improved overall survival and a shorter length of hospital stay.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Background: Furosemide is a commonly used loop diuretic in critical care. However, its effect on the progression of oliguric acute kidney injury across different central venous pressure (CVP) remains unknown. This study therefore aims to investigate the association between furosemide 6-12h (defined as the use of furosemide within 6 h after the diagnosis of AKI according to the urine output [UO] criteria set by the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes [KDIGO] guidelines) and the progression of AKI across different CVP 6-12h (defined as CVP within 6 h after the diagnosis of AKI by the KDIGO UO criteria) levels. Methods: Patients involved in this study were identified from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV database with the following criteria: (i) adults with UO <0.5 mL/kg per hour for the first 6 h upon admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) (meeting stage 1 AKI by UO) and (ii) CVP 6-12h ranging from 0 to 30 mm Hg. From there on, the target primary outcome would be progression to stage 3 AKI by UO among these chosen patients. The secondary outcome was 28-d mortality since ICU admission. The risks of severe-stage AKI progression and 28-d mortality were respectively examined against furosemide 6-12h (vs. without furosemide 6-12h ) within the full cohort and across different subgroups of CVP 6-12h , using multivariate adjusted logistic regression and inverse probability treatment weighting (IPTW). Sensitivity analyses were performed to assess the robustness of our findings. Results: One thousand one hundred eighty patients were ultimately selected for this study, of whom 643 (54.5%) progressed to stage 3 AKI from stage 1 based on the UO criteria by KDIGO. Multivariate analysis showed that furosemide 6-12h is significantly associated with this severe-stage progression within the full cohort (odds ratio [OR] was 0.62 at 95% confidence interval [CI] of 0.43-0.90, P = 0.011). After dividing the patients into CVP 6-12h subgroups according to their CVP during the early phases, lower risk of AKI progression was observed only in furosemide 6-12h application at CVP 6-12h of ≥12 mm Hg (adjusted OR was 0.40 at 95% CI of 0.25-0.65, P < 0.001), as confirmed by the IPTW analysis (OR was 0.47 at 95% CI of 0.29-0.76, P = 0.002). The robustness of these findings was confirmed by sensitivity analyses. In addition, for patients with CVP 6-12h ≥12 mm Hg, furosemide 6-12h is also significantly associated with lower risk of 28-d mortality (adjusted OR was 0.47 at 95% CI of 0.25-0.92, P = 0.026) in the multivariate logistic regression analysis, and there was a similar trend in the IPTW analysis (adjusted OR was 0.55 at 95% CI of 0.28-1.10, P = 0.092). Conclusions: Among the identified early-stage AKI patients in critical care, the use of furosemide was associated only with lower risk of oliguric AKI progression and 28-d mortality within the high CVP group. These findings suggest the potential of CVP as a guidance or reference point in the usage of furosemide among early-stage oliguric AKI patients in the ICU.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the most common major complications of cardiac surgery, and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Cardiac surgery-associated AKI has a complex, multifactorial etiology, including numerous factors such as primary cardiac dysfunction, hemodynamic derangements of cardiac surgery and cardiopulmonary bypass, and the possibility of a large volume of blood transfusion. There are no truly effective pharmacologic therapies for the management of AKI, and, therefore, anesthesiologists, intensivists, and cardiac surgeons must remain vigilant and attempt to minimize the risk of developing renal dysfunction. This narrative review describes the current state of the scientific literature concerning the specific aspects of cardiac surgery-associated AKI, and presents it in a chronological fashion to aid the perioperative clinician in their approach to this high-risk patient group. The evidence was considered for risk prediction models, preoperative optimization, and the intraoperative and postoperative management of cardiac surgery patients to improve renal outcomes.

Abstract
Objective Cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CS-AKI) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. We investigated the association of postoperative central venous pressure (CVP) and pulmonary artery pulsatility index (PAPi) with the development of CS-AKI. Methods This was a single-center, retrospective cohort study of patients undergoing cardiac surgery. CVP and PAPi were acquired hourly postoperatively and averaged for up to 48 h. PAPi was calculated as [(Pulmonary Artery Systolic Pressure–Pulmonary Artery Diastolic Pressure) / CVP]. The primary aim was CS-AKI. Secondary aims were need for renal replacement therapy (RRT), hospital and 30-day mortality, total ventilator and intensive care unit hours, and hospital length of stay. Logistic regression was used to calculate odds of development of renal injury and need for RRT. Results One thousand two hundred eighty-eight patients were included. The average postoperative CVP was 10.3 mmHg and average postoperative PAPi was 2.01. Patients who developed CS-AKI (n = 384) had lower PAPi (1.79 vs. 2.11, p < 0.01) and higher CVP (11.5 vs. 9.7 mmHg, p < 0.01) than those who did not. Lower PAPi and higher CVP were also associated with each secondary aim. A standardized unit decrease in PAPi was associated with increased odds of CS-AKI (OR 1.39, p < 0.01) while each unit increase in CVP was associated with both increased odds of CS-AKI (OR 1.56, p < 0.01) and postoperative RRT (OR 1.49, p = 0.02). Conclusions Both lower PAPi and higher CVP values postoperatively were associated with the development of CS-AKI but only higher CVP was associated with postoperative RRT use. When differences in values are standardized, CVP may be more associated with development of CS-AKI when compared to PAPi.

Abstract
Background This study aimed to develop a nomogram to predict reduced cardiac function for acute kidney injury (AKI) patients who received continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) after acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) surgery. Methods This study was a retrospective analysis. ATAAD patients with preoperative normal ejection fraction (EF) and postoperative AKI with CRRT admitted between January 2014 and November 2021 were included. The reduced cardiac function was defined as EF <50%. The data were analyzed by the univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. A diagnostic model was established by a nomogram, and its discriminative performance was validated by the received operating characteristic (ROC) curve and concordance (C) statistic. The calibration of the diagnostic model was tested by calibration curves and the HosmerLemeshow test. The clinical utility was evaluated by the decision curve analysis (DCA). Result In total, 208 patients were eligible for analysis, of which 98 patients with reduced cardiac function. The logistic regression analyses showed age ≥60 years old, history of coronary atherosclerotic disease, preoperative pericardial tamponade, and cardiopulmonary bypass time were risk factors for reduced cardiac function, which were further employed in the nomogram. As results, nomogram revealed a high predictive power (C statistic = 0.723, 0.654–0.792; the bootstrap-corrected concordance C statistic = 0.711, the area under the ROC curve = 0.723). The calibration curves showed good consistency between the predicted and the actual probabilities (calibration curve: Brier points = 0.208, Emax = 0.103, Eavg = 0.021; Hosmer-Lemeshow test, P = 0.476). DCA showed that the nomogram could augment net benefits and exhibited a wide range of threshold probabilities in the prediction of EF reduction. Conclusion This nomogram is an effective diagnostic model for predicting the reduced cardiac function in postoperative ATAAD patients with AKI undergoing CRRT and can be used to protect postoperative renal functions and facilitate patient-specific care after ATAAD surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To evaluate the impact of a clinical pathway on the incidence and severity of acute kidney injury in patients undergoing heart transplant. METHODS This was a 2.5-year retrospective evaluation using 3 years of historical controls within a cardiac intensive care unit in an academic children's hospital. Patients undergoing heart transplant between May 27, 2014, and April 5, 2017 (pre-pathway) and May 1, 2017, and November 30, 2019 (pathway) were included. The clinical pathway focused on supporting renal perfusion through hemodynamic management, avoiding or delaying nephrotoxic medications, and providing pharmacoprophylaxis against AKI. RESULTS There were 57 consecutive patients included. There was an unadjusted 20% reduction in incidence of any acute kidney injury (p = .05) and a 17% reduction in Stage 2/3 acute kidney injury (p = .09). In multivariable adjusted analysis, avoidance of Stage 2/3 acute kidney injury was independently associated with the clinical pathway era (AOR -1.3 [95% CI -2.5 to -0.2]; p = .03), achieving a central venous pressure of or less than 12 mmHg (AOR -1.3 [95% CI -2.4 to -0.2]; p = .03) and mean arterial pressure above 60 mmHg (AOR -1.6 [95% CI -3.1 to -0.01]; p = .05) in the first 48 h post-transplant, and older age at transplant (AOR - 0.2 [95% CI -0.2 to -0.06]; p = .002). CONCLUSIONS This report describes a renal protection clinical pathway associated with a reduction in perioperative acute kidney injury in patients undergoing heart transplant and highlights the importance of normalizing perioperative central venous pressure and mean arterial blood pressure to support optimal renal perfusion.

Abstract
Background Given the traditional acceptance of higher central venous pressure (CVP) levels, clinicians ignore the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI). The objective of this study was to assess whether elevated CVP is associated with increased AKI in critically ill patients with multiple comorbidities. Methods This was a retrospective observational cohort study using data collected from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC)-III open-source clinical database (version 1.4). Critically ill adult patients with CVP and serum creatinine measurement records were included. Linear and multivariable logistic regression were performed to determine the association between elevated CVP and AKI. Results A total of 11,135 patients were enrolled in our study. Critically ill patients in higher quartiles of mean CVP presented greater KDIGO AKI severity stages at 2 and 7 days. Linear regression showed that the CVP quartile was positively correlated with the incidence of AKI within 2 (R2 = 0.991, P = 0.004) and 7 days (R2 = 0.990, P = 0.005). Furthermore, patients in the highest quartile of mean CVP exhibited an increased risk of AKI at 7 days than those in the lowest quartile of mean CVP with an odds ratio of 2.80 (95% confidence interval: 2.32–3.37) after adjusting for demographics, treatments and comorbidities. The adjusted odds of AKI were 1.10 (95% confidence interval: 1.08–1.12) per 1 mmHg increase in mean CVP. Conclusions Elevated CVP is associated with an increased risk of AKI in critically ill patients with multiple comorbidities. The optimal CVP should be personalized and maintained at a low level to avoid AKI in critical care settings.

Abstract
Objectives Acute kidney injury is a common complication after pericardiectomy for constrictive pericarditis, which predisposes patients to worse outcomes and high medical costs. We aimed to investigate potential risk factors and consequences and establish a prediction model. Methods We selected patients with constrictive pericarditis receiving isolated pericardiectomy from January 2013 to January 2021. Patients receiving concomittant surgery or repeat percardiectomy, as well as end-stage of renal disease were excluded. Acute kidney injury was diagnosed and classified according to the KDIGO criteria. Clinical features were compared between patients with and without postoperative acute kidney injury. A prediction model was established based on multivariable regression analysis. Results Among two hundred and eleven patients, ninety-five (45.0%) developed postoperative acute kidney injury, with fourty-three (45.3%), twenty-eight (29.5%), and twenty-four (25.3%) in mild, moderate and severe stages, respectively. Twenty-nine (13.7%) patients received hemofiltration. Nine (4.3%) patients died perioperatively and were all in the acute kidney injury (9.5%) group. Eleven (5.2%) patients were considered to have chronic renal dysfunction states at the 6-month postoperative follow-up, and eight (72.7%) of them experienced moderate to severe stages of postoperative acute kidney injury. Univariable analysis showed that patients with acute kidney injury were older (difference 8 years, P < 0.001); had higher body mass index (difference 1.68 kg·m−2, P = 0.002); rates of smoking (OR = 2, P = 0.020), hypertension (OR = 2.83, P = 0.004), and renal dysfunction (OR = 3.58, P = 0.002); higher central venous pressure (difference 3 cm H2O, P < 0.001); and lower cardiac index (difference −0.23 L·min−1·m−2, P < 0.001) than patients without acute kidney injury. Multivariable regression analysis showed that advanced age (OR 1.03, P = 0.003), high body mass index (OR 1.10, P = 0.024), preoperative atrial arrhythmia (OR 3.12, P = 0.041), renal dysfunction (OR 2.70 P = 0.043), high central venous pressure (OR 1.12, P = 0.002), and low cardiac index (OR 0.36, P = 0.009) were associated with a high risk of postoperative acute kidney injury. A nomogram was established based on the regression results. The model showed good model fitness (Hosmer-Lemeshow test P = 0.881), with an area under the curve value of 0.78 (95% CI: 0.71, 0.84, P < 0.001). Conclusion The prediction model may help with early recognition, management, and reduction of acute kidney injury after pericardiectomy.

The impact of relative hypotension on acute kidney injury progression after cardiac surgery: a multicenter retrospective cohort study. Ann Intensive Care 2021; 11:178. [PMID: 34928430 PMCID: PMC8686086 DOI: 10.1186/s13613-021-00969-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/26/2021] [Accepted: 12/10/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiac surgery is performed worldwide, and acute kidney injury (AKI) following cardiac surgery is a risk factor for mortality. However, the optimal blood pressure target to prevent AKI after cardiac surgery remains unclear. We aimed to investigate whether relative hypotension and other hemodynamic parameters after cardiac surgery are associated with subsequent AKI progression. METHODS We retrospectively enrolled adult patients admitted to 14 intensive care units after elective cardiac surgery between January and December 2018. We defined mean perfusion pressure (MPP) as the difference between mean arterial pressure (MAP) and central venous pressure (CVP). The main exposure variables were time-weighted-average MPP-deficit (i.e., the percentage difference between preoperative and postoperative MPP) and time spent with MPP-deficit > 20% within the first 24 h. We defined other pressure-related hemodynamic parameters during the initial 24 h as exploratory exposure variables. The primary outcome was AKI progression, defined as one or more AKI stages using Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes' creatinine and urine output criteria between 24 and 72 h. We used multivariable logistic regression analyses to assess the association between the exposure variables and AKI progression. RESULTS Among the 746 patients enrolled, the median time-weighted-average MPP-deficit was 20% [interquartile range (IQR): 10-27%], and the median duration with MPP-deficit > 20% was 12 h (IQR: 3-20 h). One-hundred-and-twenty patients (16.1%) experienced AKI progression. In the multivariable analyses, time-weighted-average MPP-deficit or time spent with MPP-deficit > 20% was not associated with AKI progression [odds ratio (OR): 1.01, 95% confidence interval (95% CI): 0.99-1.03]. Likewise, time spent with MPP-deficit > 20% was not associated with AKI progression (OR: 1.01, 95% CI 0.99-1.04). Among exploratory exposure variables, time-weighted-average CVP, time-weighted-average MPP, and time spent with MPP < 60 mmHg were associated with AKI progression (OR: 1.12, 95% CI 1.05-1.20; OR: 0.97, 95% CI 0.94-0.99; OR: 1.03, 95% CI 1.00-1.06, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Although higher CVP and lower MPP were associated with AKI progression, relative hypotension was not associated with AKI progression in patients after cardiac surgery. However, these findings were based on exploratory investigation, and further studies for validating them are required.

Abstract
Kidney damage varies according to the primary insult. Different aetiologies of acute kidney injury (AKI), including kidney ischaemia, exposure to nephrotoxins, dehydration or sepsis, are associated with characteristic patterns of damage and changes in gene expression, which can provide insight into the mechanisms that lead to persistent structural and functional damage. Early morphological alterations are driven by a delicate balance between energy demand and oxygen supply, which varies considerably in different regions of the kidney. The functional heterogeneity of the various nephron segments is reflected in their use of different metabolic pathways. AKI is often linked to defects in kidney oxygen supply, and some nephron segments might not be able to shift to anaerobic metabolism under low oxygen conditions or might have remarkably low basal oxygen levels, which enhances their vulnerability to damage. Here, we discuss why specific kidney regions are at particular risk of injury and how this information might help to delineate novel routes for mitigating injury and avoiding permanent damage. We suggest that the physiological heterogeneity of the kidney should be taken into account when exploring novel renoprotective strategies, such as improvement of kidney tissue oxygenation, stimulation of hypoxia signalling pathways and modulation of cellular energy metabolism.
