Abstract
OBJECTIVES
After subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), potential renal insults are numerous but the burden of early acute kidney injury (AKI) is unclear. We determined its incidence, rate of persistence, risk factors, and impact on patients' outcomes.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Patients with non-traumatic SAH were retrospectively included if they underwent catheter angiography within the 48 h after their admission to the intensive care unit. Early AKI was defined according to Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcome (KDIGO) criteria, analyzed from the time of catheter angiography. Early AKI was considered as persistent if the KDIGO stage did not decrease between the 48th and the 60th hour.
RESULTS
Among 499 consecutive patients, early AKI (mostly oliguria) occurred in 132 (26%): stage 1, 2 and 3 in 72 (14%), 44 (9%), and 16 (3%) patients, respectively. It persisted in 36% of cases. Early AKI occurred more likely when SAH was severe or renal function was impaired at hospital admission: adjusted odds ratio of 2.76 [95% 1.77-4.30] and 3.32 [1.17-9.46], respectively. ICU and hospital lengths of stay were longer in patients who developed early AKI than in patients who did not: 16 [9-29] versus 12 [4-24] days (p = 0.0003) and 21 [14-43] versus 16 [11-32] days (p = 0.007), respectively. There was an independent link between early AKI and renal outcome (n = 274 in the model) but not with hospital mortality (n = 453).
CONCLUSIONS
One quarter of our population developed early AKI, mostly oliguria. It persisted beyond the 48th hour in one third of cases. The associated risk factors we identified were non-modifiable.
