Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgical patients are getting older with increasing comorbidity. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a commonly underesti- mated perioperative complication. 2-18% of hospitalized patients and 22-57% of patients in the intensive care unit develop AKI. Even though it has a major impact on patients' outcomes, it goes unrecognized in 57-75.6% of cases. METHODS This review is based on pertinent papers retrieved by a selective search in PubMed and the Cochrane Library employ- ing the searching terms "acute kidney injury," "biomarker," "perioperative," "renal function," and "KDIGO." RESULTS The pathophysiology of AKI is complex. Conventional biomarkers are either not specific enough (urine output) or not sensitive enough (serum creatinine) for timely diagnosis. In view of the pathophysiology of the condition and the limited treat- ment options for it, the early detection of subclinical AKI (kidney damage without functional impairment) would seem to be a reasonable first step toward the prevention of worsening or permanent renal injury. New biomarkers of damage enable the early initiation of nephroprotective interventions. According to the "Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes" (KDIGO) statement, a multimodal treatment approach is needed, including, among other things, optimization of hemodynamics and the discontinu- ation of nephrotoxic drugs. CONCLUSION It is essential to identify patients at risk and sensitize the treating personnel to the implementation of the guidelines. The incorporation of new biomarkers into routine clinical practice is also reasonable and necessary. Future clinical trials must show in what form these biomarkers should be used (singly or collectively).

Abstract
Despite evidence highlighting harms of fluid overload, minimal guidance exists on counteraction via utilization of diuretics in the de-resuscitation phase. While diuretics have been shown to decrease net volume and improve clinical outcomes in the critically ill, a lack of standardization surrounding selection of diuretic regimen or monitoring of de-resuscitation exists. Current monitoring parameters of de-resuscitation often rely on clinical signs of fluid overload, end organ recovery and other biochemical surrogate markers which are often deemed unreliable. The majority of evidence suggests that achieving a net-negative fluid balance within 72 h after shock resolution may be of benefit; however, approaches to such goal are uncertain. Loop diuretics are a widely available type of diuretic for removal of volume in patients with sufficient kidney function, with the potential for adjunct diuretics in special circumstances. At present, administration of diuretics within the broad critically ill population fails to find uniformity and often efficacy. Given the lack of randomized controlled trials in this susceptible population, we aim to provide a thorough therapeutic understanding of diuretic pharmacotherapy which is necessary in order to achieve desired goal of fluid balance and improve overall outcomes.

Chen JJ, Chang CH, Huang YT, Kuo G. Furosemide stress test as a predictive marker of acute kidney injury progression or renal replacement therapy: a systemic review and meta-analysis. CRITICAL CARE : THE OFFICIAL JOURNAL OF THE CRITICAL CARE FORUM 2020; 24:202. [PMID: 32381019 PMCID: PMC7206785 DOI: 10.1186/s13054-020-02912-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2020] [Accepted: 04/22/2020] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
Background The use of the furosemide stress test (FST) as an acute kidney injury (AKI) severity marker has been described in several trials. However, the diagnostic performance of the FST in predicting AKI progression has not yet been fully discussed. Methods In accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, we searched the PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane databases up to March 2020. The diagnostic performance of the FST (in terms of sensitivity, specificity, number of events, true positive, false positive) was extracted and evaluated. Results We identified eleven trials that enrolled a total of 1366 patients, including 517 patients and 1017 patients for whom the outcomes in terms of AKI stage progression and renal replacement therapy (RRT), respectively, were reported. The pooled sensitivity and specificity results of the FST for AKI progression prediction were 0.81 (95% CI 0.74–0.87) and 0.88 (95% CI 0.82–0.92), respectively. The pooled positive likelihood ratio (LR) was 5.45 (95% CI 3.96–7.50), the pooled negative LR was 0.26 (95% CI 0.19–0.36), and the pooled diagnostic odds ratio (DOR) was 29.69 (95% CI 17.00–51.85). The summary receiver operating characteristics (SROC) with pooled diagnostic accuracy was 0.88. The diagnostic performance of the FST in predicting AKI progression was not affected by different AKI criteria or underlying chronic kidney disease. The pooled sensitivity and specificity results of the FST for RRT prediction were 0.84 (95% CI 0.72–0.91) and 0.77 (95% CI 0.64–0.87), respectively. The pooled positive LR and pooled negative LR were 3.16 (95% CI 2.06–4.86) and 0.25 (95% CI 0.14–0.44), respectively. The pooled diagnostic odds ratio (DOR) was 13.59 (95% CI 5.74–32.17), and SROC with pooled diagnostic accuracy was 0.86. The diagnostic performance of FST for RRT prediction is better in stage 1–2 AKI compared to stage 3 AKI (relative DOR 5.75, 95% CI 2.51–13.33). Conclusion The FST is a simple tool for the identification of AKI populations at high risk of AKI progression and the need for RRT, and the diagnostic performance of FST in RRT prediction is better in early AKI population.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Serum creatinine and urine output continue to be the mainstays of diagnosis of acute kidney injury, though both of these measures have significant limitations, especially in acutely hospitalized patients. Biomarkers in both blood and urine have been studied extensively in the research setting and are on the verge of clinical practice to improve diagnosis of AKI. RECENT FINDINGS Blood and urine biomarkers can be localized to specific areas or functions within the nephron. Biomarkers can help to characterize glomerular or tubular function; glomerular, tubular, or interstitial injury; inflammation; or repair. Further, biomarkers can improve diagnosis of AKI in various clinical settings including acute interstitial nephritis, acute tubular injury, and hepatorenal syndrome, and cardiorenal syndrome. SUMMARY Biomarkers are becoming more prevalent in both research and getting close to clinical use. Both blood and urine biomarkers can help to localize impairment in nephron health by either location or function within the nephron and among various causes of AKI.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common and serious medical condition associated with significant increases in morbidity, mortality, and cost of care. Because of the high incidence and poor outcomes associated with AKI, there has been significant interest in the development of new therapies for the prevention and treatment of the disease. A lack of efficacy in drug trials led to the concern that AKI was not being diagnosed early enough for an effective intervention and that a rise in serum creatinine itself is not a sensitive-enough marker. Researchers have been searching for novel biomarkers that can not only assess a decline in kidney function but also demonstrate structural damage to the kidney and at time points earlier than increases in serum creatinine measurements allow. Over the past 10 years, there have been 3300 new publications and hundreds of new biomarkers investigated, yet concern still remains regarding AKI biomarker performance. The AKI biomarkers are yet to be widely utilized in clinical practice, leading some to question whether AKI biomarkers will ever reach their initial promise. However, we believe that biomarkers are an important part of current and future AKI research and clinical management. In this review, we compare the historical contexts of acute myocardial ischemia and AKI biomarker development to illustrate the progress that has been made within AKI biomarker research in a relatively short period of time and also to point out key differences between the disease processes that have been barriers to widespread AKI biomarker adoption. Finally, we discuss potential paths by which biomarkers can lead to appropriate AKI treatment responses that lower morbidity and mortality.

A Furosemide Excretion Stress Test Predicts Mortality in Mice After Sepsis and Outperforms the Furosemide Stress Test During Vasopressin Administration. Crit Care Explor 2020; 2:e0112.

Abstract
Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text. Objectives: The furosemide stress test measures the volume of urine produced after a furosemide challenge. Furosemide stress test has previously demonstrated sensitive and specific prediction of progression to Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes guideline defined acute kidney injury stage III in the ICU. Furosemide is actively excreted into the nephron lumen where it inhibits the sodium-potassium-chloride cotransporter, causing diuresis. We hypothesize that furosemide excretion is a more direct measure of tubule health than diuresis. Design: We developed a furosemide excretion stress test to evaluate this hypothesis in a murine model of septic-acute kidney injury. Setting: Basic science laboratory. Subjects: Male and female 8-week old CD-1 mice. Interventions: Sepsis was induced by cecal ligation and puncture in male and female mice. Furosemide stress test/furosemide excretion stress test started 42 hours post-cecal ligation and puncture with a 1 mg/kg furosemide bolus and urine was collected for 12 hours. The mice were then euthanized or monitored until 7 days post-cecal ligation and puncture. In another cohort, mice were treated with vasopressin, which decreases urine volume. Furosemide concentration was determined by high performance liquid chromatography. Measurements and Main Results: Urine production during the 12-hour collection varied from 0.08 to 2.62 mL. Both urine production (furosemide stress test) and furosemide excretion (furosemide excretion stress test) predicted mortality (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve = 0.925 and 0.916) and time of death (R2 = 0.26 and 0.74). Male and female mice demonstrated consistent results. Following vasopressin treatment, furosemide stress test specificity fell to 33% (p = 0.016) but furosemide excretion stress test specificity was maintained. Conclusions: The furosemide stress test and furosemide excretion stress test performed similarly in predicting mortality; however, furosemide excretion stress test was superior in predicting time to death and maintained performance when challenged with vasopressin treatment in a mouse sepsis model.

Abstract
Risk stratification and accurate patient prognosis are pending issues in the management of patients with kidney disease. The furosemide stress test (FST) has been proposed as a low-cost, fast, safe, and easy-to-perform test to assess tubular integrity, especially when compared to novel plasma and urinary biomarkers. However, the findings regarding its clinical use published so far provide insufficient evidence to recommend the generalized application of the test in daily clinical routine. Dosage, timing, and clinical outcomes of the FST proposed thus far have been significantly different, which further accentuates the need for standardization in the application of the test in order to facilitate the comparison of results between series. This review will summarize published research regarding the usefulness of the FST in different settings, providing the reader some insights about the possible implications of FST in clinical decision-making in patients with kidney disease and the challenges that research will have to address in the near future before widely applying the FST.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common clinical condition among patients admitted in the hospitals. The condition is associated with both increased short-term and long-term mortality. With the development of a standardized definition for AKI and the acknowledgment of the impact of AKI on patient outcomes, there has been increased recognition of AKI. Two advances from past decades, the usage of computer decision support and the discovery of AKI biomarkers, have the ability to advance the diagnostic method to and further management of AKI. The increasingly widespread use of electronic health records across hospitals has substantially increased the amount of data available to investigators and has shown promise in advancing AKI research. In addition, progress in the finding and validation of different forms of biomarkers of AKI within diversified clinical environments and has provided information and insight on testing, etiology and further prognosis of AKI, leading to future of precision and personalized approach to AKI management. In this this article, we discussed the changing paradigms in AKI: from mechanisms to diagnostics, risk factors, and management of AKI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Interstitial fibrosis (IF) on kidney biopsy is one of the most potent risk factors for kidney disease progression. The furosemide stress test (FST) is a validated tool that predicts the severity of acute kidney injury (especially at 2 h) in critically ill patients. Since furosemide is secreted through the kidney tubules, the response to FST represents the tubular secretory capacity. To our knowledge there is no data on the correlation between functional tubular capacity assessed by the FST with IF on kidney biopsies from patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The aim of this study was to determine the association between urine output (UO), Furosemide Excreted Mass (FEM) and IF on kidney biopsies after a FST. METHODS This study included 84 patients who underwent kidney biopsy for clinical indications and a FST. The percentage of fibrosis was determined by morphometry technique and reviewed by a nephropathologist. All patients underwent a FST prior to the biopsy. Urine volume and urinary sodium were measured in addition to urine concentrations of furosemide at different times (2, 4 and 6 h). We used an established equation to determine the FEM. Values were expressed as mean, standard deviation or percentage and Pearson Correlation. RESULTS The mean age of the participants was 38 years and 44% were male. The prevalence of diabetes mellitus, hypertension and diuretic use was significantly higher with more advanced degree of fibrosis. Nephrotic syndrome and acute kidney graft dysfunction were the most frequent indications for biopsy. eGFR was inversely related to the degree of fibrosis. Subjects with the highest degree of fibrosis (grade 3) showed a significant lower UO at first hour of the FST when compared to lower degrees of fibrosis (p = 0.015). Likewise, the total UO and the FEM was progressively lower with higher degrees of fibrosis. An inversely linear correlation between FEM and the degree of fibrosis (r = - 0.245, p = 0.02) was observed. CONCLUSIONS Our findings indicate that interstitial fibrosis correlates with total urine output and FEM. Further studies are needed to determine if UO and FST could be a non-invasive tool to evaluate interstitial fibrosis. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov NCT02417883.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The incidence of acute kidney injury in critically ill patients is increasing steeply. Acute kidney injury in this setting is associated with high morbidity and mortality. There is no doubt that renal replacement therapy for the most severe forms of acute kidney injury can be life saving, but there are a number of uncertainties about the optimal application of renal replacement therapy for patients with acute kidney injury. The objective of this synthetic review is to present current evidence supporting best practices in renal replacement therapy for critically ill patients with acute kidney injury. DATA SOURCES We reviewed literature regarding timing of initiation of renal replacement therapy, optimal vascular access for renal replacement therapy in acute kidney injury, modality selection and dose or intensity of renal replacement therapy, and anticoagulation during renal replacement therapy, using the following databases: MEDLINE and PubMed. We also reviewed bibliographic citations of retrieved articles. STUDY SELECTION We reviewed only English language articles. CONCLUSIONS Current evidence sheds light on many areas of controversy regarding renal replacement therapy in acute kidney injury, providing a foundation for best practices. Nonetheless, important questions remain to be answered by ongoing and future investigation.

Abstract
Clinicopathologic evaluation of renal function and renal disease in sick adult horses remains grounded in detection of azotemia, assessment of serum and urine electrolyte concentrations, and evaluation of urinalysis findings, including specific gravity, reagent strip analysis, and sediment examination. Because increases in serum or plasma urea nitrogen and creatinine concentrations are insensitive indicators of a decreased glomerular filtration rate, there is considerable interest in identifying novel biomarkers of renal function or injury in blood and urine, with serum symmetric dimethylarginine concentration being the most recent addition to the commercial market.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Oliguria after cardiac surgery remains of uncertain clinical significance. Therefore, we investigated the relationship of acute kidney injury severity across urine output and creatinine domains with the risk for major adverse kidney events at 180 days. We aimed to determine the impact of acute kidney injury after cardiac surgery. METHODS In a retrospective multicenter study, we investigated the relationship of acute kidney injury severity across urine output and creatinine categories with the risk for major adverse kidney events at 180 days-the composite of death, dialysis, and persistent renal dysfunction-using a large database of patients undergoing cardiac surgery at 1 of 5 hospitals within the regional medical system. We analyzed electronic records from 6637 patients treated between 2008 and 2014, of whom 5389 (81.2%) developed any acute kidney injury within 72 hours of surgery. We stratified patients by levels of urine output or serum creatinine according to Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes criteria for acute kidney injury. RESULTS Major adverse kidney events at 180 days increased from 4.5% for no acute kidney injury to 61.3% for stage 3 acute kidney injury (P < .001). Death or dialysis by day 180 was 2.4% for those with no acute kidney injury and 46.7% for those with acute kidney injury stage 3 (P < .001). Isolated oliguria was common (42.6%), and isolated azotemia was rare (6.1%). Even stage 1 acute kidney injury by oliguria alone was associated with an increased risk of major adverse kidney events at 180 days (odds ratio, 1.76; 1.20-2.57; P = .004), mainly driven by persistent renal dysfunction (odds ratio, 2.01; 1.26-3.18; P = .003). CONCLUSIONS Acute kidney injury is common in patients undergoing cardiac surgery, and even milder forms of acute kidney injury, including isolated stage 1 oliguria, are associated with adverse long-term consequences.

Early Sequential Risk Stratification Assessment to Optimize Fluid Dosing, CRRT Initiation and Discontinuation in Critically Ill Children with Acute Kidney Injury: Taking Focus 2 Process Article.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is common in critically ill children and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Recognition and management of AKI is often delayed, predisposing patients to risk of clinically significant fluid accumulation (Fluid Overload (FO)). Early recognition and intervention in high risk patients could decrease fluid associated morbidity. We aim to assess an AKI Clinical Decision Algorithm (CDA) using a sequential risk stratification strategy integrating the Renal Angina Index (RAI), urine Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin (NGAL) and the Furosemide Stress Test (FST) to optimize AKI and FO prediction and management in critically ill children. METHODS/DESIGN This single center prospective observational cohort study evaluates the AKI CDA in a Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU). Every patient ≥ 3 months old has the risk score RAI calculated automatically at 12 hours of admission. Patients with a RAI ≥ 8 (fulfilling renal angina) have risk further stratified with a urine NGAL and, if positive (NGAL ≥ 150ng/mL), subsequently by their response to a standardized dose of furosemide (namely FST). RAI negative or NGAL negative patients are treated per usual care. FST-responders are managed conservatively, while non-responders receive fluid restrictive strategy and/or continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) at 10%-15% of FO. 2100 patients over 3 years will be evaluated to capture 210 patients with severe AKI (KDIGO Stage 2 or 3 AKI), 100 patients with >10% FO, and 50 requiring CRRT. Primary analyses: Standardizing a pediatric FST and assessing prediction accuracy of CDA for severe AKI, FO>10% and CRRT requirement in children. Secondary analyses in patients with AKI: Renal function return to baseline, RRT and mortality within 28 days. DISCUSSION This will be the first prospective evaluation of feasibility of AKI CDA, integrating individual prediction tools in one cohesive and comprehensive approach, and its prediction of FO>10% and AKI, as well as the first to standardize the FST in the pediatric population. This will increase knowledge on current AKI prediction tools and provide actionable insight for early interventions in critically ill children based on their level of risk.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common and life-threatening complication in critically ill neonates. Gestational risk factors for AKI include premature birth, intrauterine growth restriction and low birthweight, which are associated with poor nephron development and are often the consequence of pre-gestational and gestational factors, such as poor nutritional status. Our understanding of how to best optimize renal development and prevent AKI is in its infancy; however, the identification of pre-gestational and gestational factors that increase the risk of adverse neonatal outcomes and the implementation of interventions, such as improving nutritional status early in pregnancy, have the potential to optimize fetal growth and reduce the risk of preterm birth, thereby improving kidney health. The overall risk of AKI among critically ill and premature neonates is exacerbated postnatally as these infants are often exposed to dehydration, septic shock and potentially nephrotoxic medications. Strategies to improve outcomes - for example, through careful evaluation of nephrotoxic drugs - may reduce the incidence of AKI and its consequences among this population. Management strategies and updated technology that will support neonates with AKI are greatly needed. Extremely premature infants and those who survive an episode of AKI should be screened for chronic kidney disease until early adulthood. Here, we provide an overview of our current understanding of neonatal AKI, focusing on its relationship to preterm birth and growth restriction. We describe factors that prevent optimal nephrogenesis during pregnancy and provide a framework for future explorations designed to maximize outcomes in this vulnerable population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess whether loop diuretic challenge predicts the need for dialysis among critically ill patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) stage 3. PATIENTS AND METHODS Adult patients admitted to intensive care units between January 1, 2004, and December 31, 2016, were screened. Acute kidney injury stage 3 was identified by an electronic surveillance tool, and patients who received loop diuretics in a dosage of at least 1mg/kg intravenous bolus furosemide equivalent were included. Urine output following loop diuretic challenge was modeled as a restricted cubic spline. We then compared the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for urine outputs at 2 hours and 6 hours after loop diuretic challenge to predict the need for dialysis within the next 24 hours. RESULTS Of 687 patients included in the study, those who received dialysis were younger and had higher Sequential Organ Failure Assessment scores on the day of loop diuretic challenge. Urine outputs at 2 hours and 6 hours were lower in patients who needed dialysis, but urine output by 6 hours was better in predicting dialysis initiation within 24 hours (area under the curve, 0.71 vs 0.67; P=.02). The sensitivity and specificity of 6-hour urine output cutoff of 600 mL or less to predict dialysis was 80.9% and 50.5%, respectively, and that for 300 mL or less was 64.2% and 68.2%, respectively. CONCLUSION Among patients with stage 3 AKI, 6-hour urine output after the loop diuretic challenge had a modest discriminant capacity to identify dialysis initiation within the next 24 hours.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Loop diuretics (LD) are widely used in emergency and intensive care medicine. SUMMARY The substances increase the clearance of electrolytes and water; thus, they allow us to control hypervolemia and to prevent patients from pulmonary edema. LD are also frequently applied to patients with an acute decrease in glomerular filtration rate, namely, acute kidney injury (AKI). Nevertheless, volume depletion may be associated with reduced renal perfusion and possibly slower restitution or even aggravation of kidney dysfunction. Several trials on the preventive or therapeutic efficacy of LD have been published since the early 1970s. Our review article is intended to summarize the most important references related to this topic. In addition, we discuss the diagnostic value of the so-called furosemide stress test. The currently available data indicate that LD may act in a beneficial manner as long as euvolemia is maintained (matched hydration). Key Massages: LD are not beneficial for AKI treatment if kidney-related endpoints are considered. In certain situations, AKI prevention with LD can be associated with favorable outcomes as long as euvolemia is maintained. LD can help to identify AKI subjects at a higher risk of AKI progression, but the exact clinical consequences need to be determined.

Abstract
Renal replacement therapy (RRT) is frequently required to manage critically ill patients with acute kidney injury (AKI). There is limited evidence to support the current practice of RRT in intensive care units (ICUs). Recently published randomized control trials (RCTs) have further questioned our understanding of RRT in critical care. The optimal timing and dosing continues to be debatable; however, current evidence suggests delayed strategy with less intensive dosing when utilising RRT. Various modes of RRT are complementary to each other with no definite benefits to mortality or renal function preservation. Choice of anticoagulation remains regional citrate anticoagulation in continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) with lower bleeding risk when compared with heparin. RRT can be used to support resistant cardiac failure, but evolving therapies such as haemoperfusion are currently not recommended in sepsis.

Abstract
Sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (S-AKI) is a frequent complication of the critically ill patient and is associated with unacceptable morbidity and mortality. Prevention of S-AKI is difficult because by the time patients seek medical attention, most have already developed acute kidney injury. Thus, early recognition is crucial to provide supportive treatment and limit further insults. Current diagnostic criteria for acute kidney injury has limited early detection; however, novel biomarkers of kidney stress and damage have been recently validated for risk prediction and early diagnosis of acute kidney injury in the setting of sepsis. Recent evidence shows that microvascular dysfunction, inflammation, and metabolic reprogramming are 3 fundamental mechanisms that may play a role in the development of S-AKI. However, more mechanistic studies are needed to better understand the convoluted pathophysiology of S-AKI and to translate these findings into potential treatment strategies and add to the promising pharmacologic approaches being developed and tested in clinical trials.

Abstract
New pharmacokinetics insight suggests that the furosemide pharmacology occurring in ICU patients with AKI is similar, but not equal to that described in chronic stable renal patients. Even if the diuretic response to furosemide is expressed by a steep dose-response curve positively correlated with renal function, pharmacodynamic limitations occur when creatinine clearance is < 20 ml/min or urine output is < 500 ml/12 h. In such cases, other factors specifically due to acute tubular injury can interfere with the furosemide-induced diuretic output. As modality of administration recent reports and metanalysis, even if not conclusive, suggest that for the same given dose a continuous infusion of furosemide was superior in diuretic response. For septic shock patients on CVVHDF where treatment adds an additional clearance of furosemide the maximum diuretic response is achieved by a continuous infusion of 20 mg/h of furosemide. At this infusion rate the reached plasma level was < 20 mg/L, a range considered safe and not ototoxic. Therefore, the severity of AKI establishes whether a patient will respond to furosemide. In this review we summarized all these recent updates, also suggesting that the diuretic response under continuous infusion may allow assessing glomerular and tubular functions with increased reliability than a bolus dose. However, validation studies are still needed to support continuous infusion as a stress test.

Abstract
Purpose To review the mechanisms of action, expected efficacy and side effects of strategies to control hyperkalemia in acutely ill patients. Methods We searched MEDLINE and EMBASE for relevant papers published in English between Jan 1, 1938, and July 1, 2018, in accordance with the PRISMA Statement using the following terms: “hyperkalemia,” “intensive care,” “acute kidney injury,” “acute kidney failure,” “hyperkalemia treatment,” “renal replacement therapy,” “dialysis,” “sodium bicarbonate,” “emergency,” “acute.” Reports from within the past 10 years were selected preferentially, together with highly relevant older publications. Results Hyperkalemia is a potentially life-threatening electrolyte abnormality and may cause cardiac electrophysiological disturbances in the acutely ill patient. Frequently used therapies for hyperkalemia may, however, also be associated with morbidity. Therapeutics may include the simultaneous administration of insulin and glucose (associated with frequent dysglycemic complications), β-2 agonists (associated with potential cardiac ischemia and arrhythmias), hypertonic sodium bicarbonate infusion in the acidotic patient (representing a large hypertonic sodium load) and renal replacement therapy (effective but invasive). Potassium-lowering drugs can cause rapid decrease in serum potassium level leading to cardiac hyperexcitability and rhythm disorders. Conclusions Treatment of hyperkalemia should not only focus on the ability of specific therapies to lower serum potassium level but also on their potential side effects. Tailoring treatment to the patient condition and situation may limit the risks.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the existing capacity for renal replacement therapy and site-specific practices for managing acute kidney injury at centers participating in the BaSICS trial. METHODS A questionnaire was provided to the chairs of 61 intensive care units enrolled in a randomized clinical trial in Brazil. A total of 124 physicians completed the questionnaire. RESULTS Approximately 15% of the patients admitted to the analyzed intensive care units received renal replacement therapy at the time of data collection. At least one renal replacement method was available in all of the analyzed units. Continuous methods were available more frequently at the private units than at the public units. The time from indication to onset of treatment was longer at the public units than at private units. The main obstacles to treatment initiation at public intensive care units were related to the availability of equipment and personnel, while the main bottleneck at private units was the nephrologist assessment. A considerable proportion of the participants stated that they would change their approach to renal replacement therapy if there were no limitations on the availability of methods in their units. CONCLUSION There was wide variation in the availability of resources for renal replacement therapy and in the management of acute kidney injury in Brazilian intensive care units. This information should be taken into account when planning clinical trials focused on this topic in Brazil.

Abstract
Acute Kidney Injury (AKI), a sudden decline in kidney function, is associated with increased mortality, morbidity, length of stay, and hospital cost. Since AKI is sometimes preventable, there is great interest in prediction. Most existing studies consider all patients and therefore restrict to features available in the first hours of hospitalization. Here, the focus is instead on rehospitalized patients, a cohort in which rich longitudinal features from prior hospitalizations can be analyzed. Our objective is to provide a risk score directly at hospital re-entry. Gradient boosting, penalized logistic regression (with and without stability selection), and a recurrent neural network are trained on two years of adult inpatient EHR data (3,387 attributes for 34,505 patients who generated 90,013 training samples with 5,618 cases and 84,395 controls). Predictions are internally evaluated with 50 iterations of 5-fold grouped cross-validation with special emphasis on calibration, an analysis of which is performed at the patient as well as hospitalization level. Error is assessed with respect to diagnosis, race, age, gender, AKI identification method, and hospital utilization. In an additional experiment, the regularization penalty is severely increased to induce parsimony and interpretability. Predictors identified for rehospitalized patients are also reported with a special analysis of medications that might be modifiable risk factors. Insights from this study might be used to construct a predictive tool for AKI in rehospitalized patients. An accurate estimate of AKI risk at hospital entry might serve as a prior for an admitting provider or another predictive algorithm.

Abstract
Critically ill patients with severe acute kidney injury (AKI-D) require renal replacement therapy (RRT) increasingly. However, the optimal timing of initiation of RRT for non-life-threatening indications of AKI remains unknown. There is a debate as to whether different philosophies of RRT initiation (early vs. delayed) confer a survival benefit. Lowering the threshold for RRT initiation, however, inevitably leads to more critically ill patients receiving unnecessary RRT. The relevant proportion of nonprogressing early stage AKI patients with spontaneous kidney recovery is a matter of severe concern because RRT has potentially lethal complications and is expensive. Moreover, these patients should be excluded from randomized trials. The furosemide stress test in critically ill patients with early stages of AKI serves as a novel tubular function test to identify those patients with severe and progressive AKI-D. Future trials to validate findings of a promising pilot study are warranted.

Abstract
Background: A common practice in the management of critically ill patients is fluid resuscitation. An excessive administration of fluids can lead to an imbalance in fluid homeostasis and cause fluid overload (FO). In pediatric critical care patients, FO can lead to a multitude of adverse effects and increased risk of morbidity. Objectives: To review the literature highlighting impact of FO on a multitude of outcomes in critically-ill children, causative vs. associative relationship of FO with critical illness and current pediatric fluid management guidelines. Data Sources: A literature search was conducted using PubMed/Medline and Embase databases from the earliest available date until June 2017. Data Extraction: Two authors independently reviewed the titles and abstracts of all articles which were assessed for inclusion. The manuscripts of studies deemed relevant to the objectives of this review were then retrieved and associated reference lists hand-searched. Data Synthesis: Articles were segregated into various categories namely pathophysiology and sequelae of fluid overload, assessment techniques, epidemiology and fluid management. Each author reviewed the selected articles in categories assigned to them. All authors participated in the final review process. Conclusions: Recent evidence has purported a relationship between mortality and FO, which can be validated by prospective RCTs (randomized controlled trials). The current literature demonstrates that "clinically significant" degree of FO could be below 10%. The lack of a standardized method to assess FB (fluid balance) and a universal definition of FO are issues that need to be addressed. To date, the impact of early goal directed therapy and utility of hemodynamic parameters in predicting fluid responsiveness remains underexplored in pediatric resuscitation.

Association between diuretics and successful discontinuation of continuous renal replacement therapy in critically ill patients with acute kidney injury. CRITICAL CARE : THE OFFICIAL JOURNAL OF THE CRITICAL CARE FORUM 2018; 22:255. [PMID: 30305122 PMCID: PMC6180655 DOI: 10.1186/s13054-018-2192-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2018] [Accepted: 09/12/2018] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite aggressive application of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) in critically ill patients with acute kidney injury (AKI), there is no consensus on diuretic therapy when discontinuation of CRRT is attempted. The effect of diuretics on discontinuation of CRRT in critically ill patients was evaluated. METHODS This retrospective cohort study enrolled 1176 adult patients who survived for more than 3 days after discontinuing CRRT between 2009 and 2014. Patients were categorized depending on the re-initiation of renal replacement therapy within 3 days after discontinuing CRRT or use of diuretics. Changes in urine output (UO) and renal function after discontinuing CRRT were outcomes. Predictive factors for successful discontinuation of CRRT were also analyzed. RESULTS The CRRT discontinuation group had a shorter duration of CRRT, more frequent use of diuretics after discontinuing CRRT, and greater UO on the day before CRRT discontinuation [day minus 1 (day - 1)]. The diuretics group had greater increases in UO and serum creatinine elevation after discontinuing CRRT. In the CRRT discontinuation group, continuous infusion of furosemide tended to increase UO more effectively. Multivariable regression analysis identified high day - 1 UO and use of diuretics as significant predictors of successful discontinuation of CRRT. Day - 1 UO of 125 mL/day was the cutoff value for predicting successful discontinuation of CRRT in oliguric patients treated with diuretics following CRRT. CONCLUSIONS Day - 1 UO and aggressive diuretic therapy were associated with successful CRRT discontinuation. Diuretic therapy may be helpful when attempting CRRT discontinuation in critically ill patients with AKI, by inducing a favorable fluid balance, especially in oliguric patients.

Abstract
Oliguria is often observed in critically ill patients. However, different thresholds in urine output (UO) have raised discussion as to the clinical importance of a transiently reduced UO of less than 0.5 ml/kg/h lasting for at least 6 h. While some studies have demonstrated that isolated oliguria without a concomitant increase in serum creatinine is associated with higher mortality rates, different underlying pathophysiological mechanisms suggest varied clinical importance of reduced UO, as some episodes of oliguria may be fully reversible. We aim to explore the clinical relevance of oliguria in critically ill patients and propose a clinical pathway for the diagnostic and therapeutic management of an oliguric, critically ill patient.

Abstract
Renal stimulation tests document the dynamic response of the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) after a single or a combination of stimuli, such as an intravenous infusion of dopamine or amino acids or an oral protein meal. The increment of the GFR above the unstimulated state has formerly been called the renal functional reserve (RFR). Although the concept of a renal reserve capacity has not withstood scientific scrutiny, the literature documenting renal stimulation merits renewed interest. An absent or a blunted response of the GFR after a stimulus indicates lost or diseased nephrons. This information is valuable in preventing, diagnosing and prognosticating acute kidney injury and pregnancy-related renal events as well as chronic kidney disease. However, before renal function testing is universally practiced, some shortcomings must be addressed. First, a common nomenclature should be decided upon. The expression of RFR should be replaced by renal functional response. Second, a simple protocol must be developed and propagated. Third, we suggest designing prospective studies linking a defective stimulatory response to emergence of renal injury biomarkers, to histological or morphological renal abnormalities and to adverse renal outcomes in different renal syndromes.

Abstract
Abstract
BACKGROUND
Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurs in many critically ill patients and is associated with high mortality. We examined whether proenkephalin could predict incident AKI and its improvement in septic patients.
METHODS
Plasma proenkephalin A 119–159 (penKid) was assayed in 956 patients with sepsis or septic shock enrolled in the multicenter Albumin Italian Outcome Sepsis (ALBIOS) trial to test its association with incident AKI, improvement of renal function, need for renal replacement therapy (RRT), and mortality.
RESULTS
Median [Q1–Q3] plasma penKid concentration on day 1 [84 (20–159) pmol/L[ was correlated with serum creatinine concentration (r = 0.74); it was higher in patients with chronic renal failure and rose progressively with the renal Sequential Organ Failure Assessment subscore. It predicted incident AKI within 48 h (adjusted odds ratio, 3.3; 95% CI, 2.1–5.1; P < 0.0001) or 1 week [adjusted hazard ratio, 2.1 (1.7–2.8); P < 0.0001] and future RRT during the intensive care unit stay [odds ratio, 4.0 (3.0–5.4)]. PenKid was also associated with improvements in renal function in patients with baseline serum creatinine >2 mg/dL, both within the next 48 h [adjusted odds ratio, 0.31 (0.18–0.54), P < 0.0001] and 1 week [0.23 (0.12–0.45)]. The time course of penKid concentrations predicted AKI and 90-day mortality.
CONCLUSIONS
Early measurement and the trajectory of penKid predict incident AKI, improvement of renal function, and the need for RRT in the acute phase after intensive care unit admission during sepsis or septic shock. PenKid measurement may be a valuable tool to test early therapies aimed at preventing the risk of AKI in sepsis.

Abstract
The secretion of small molecules by the proximal tubules of the kidneys represents a vital homeostatic function for rapidly clearing endogenous solutes and medications from the circulation. After filtration at the glomerulus, renal blood flow is directed through a network of peritubular capillaries, where transporters of the proximal tubules actively secrete putative uremic toxins and hundreds of commonly prescribed drugs into the urine, including protein-bound substances that cannot readily cross the glomerular basement membrane. Despite its central physiologic importance, tubular secretory clearance is rarely measured or even estimated in clinical or research settings. Major barriers to estimating tubular solute clearance include uncertainty regarding optimal endogenous secretory markers and a lack of standardized laboratory assays. The creation of new methods to measure tubular secretion could catalyze advances in kidney disease research and clinical care. Differences in secretory clearance relative to the GFR could help distinguish among the causes of CKD, particularly for disorders that primarily affect the tubulointerstitium. As the primary mechanism by which the kidneys excrete medications, tubular secretory clearance offers promise for improving kidney medication dosing, which is currently exclusively on the basis of filtration. The differing metabolic profiles of retained solutes eliminated by secretion versus glomerular filtration suggest that secretory clearance could uniquely inform uremic toxicity, refine existing measures of residual kidney function, and improve prediction of cardiovascular and kidney disease outcomes. Interdisciplinary research across clinical, translational, and laboratory medicine is needed to bring this often neglected kidney function into the limelight.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is pervasive, affecting a significant proportion of critically ill and noncritically ill children. Recent data demonstrate a clear independent association of escalating AKI severity with not only mortality, but also with longer-term disability and chronic kidney disease in children. The paradigm has shifted-patients are no longer dying with AKI, but rather from AKI. In this review, AKI is described in the paradigms of "past," "present," and "future" to stimulate a reassessment of our understanding of this organ dysfunction syndrome. Current treatment strategies as well as novel methodologies are discussed. A global effort is required to make progress in the fight against AKI and improve patient outcomes.

Abstract
Kidney function, like the function of other organs, is dynamic and continuously adjusts to changes in the internal environment to maintain homeostasis. The glomerular filtration rate, which serves as the primary index of kidney function in clinical practice, increases in response to various physiological and pathological stressors including oral protein intake. The difference between the glomerular filtration rate in the resting state and at maximum capacity has been termed renal functional reserve (RFR). RFR could provide additional information on kidney health and renal function prognosis. Despite longstanding interest in RFR as a biomarker in nephrology, its underlying mechanisms remain inadequately understood. Moreover, no consensus has been reached on how it should be quantified. Previous studies on RFR have used various measurement methods and yielded heterogeneous results. A standardized and clinically feasible approach to quantifying RFR would allow for more rigorous appraisal of its value as a biomarker and could pave the way for adoption of "renal stress tests" into clinical practice.

Abstract
Background Furosemide is the most common loop diuretic used worldwide. The off-label administration of furosemide bolus(es) for the prevention or to reverse acute kidney injury (AKI) is widespread but not supported by available evidence. We conducted a meta-analysis of randomized trials (RCTs) to investigate whether bolus furosemide to prevent or treat AKI is detrimental on patients’ survival. Methods Electronic databases were searched through October 2017 for RCTs comparing bolus furosemide administration versus any comparator in patients with or at risk for AKI. The primary endpoint was all-cause longest follow-up mortality. Secondary endpoints included new or worsening AKI, receipt of renal replacement therapy, length of hospital stay, and peak serum creatinine after randomization. Results A total of 28 studies randomizing 3,228 patients were included in the analysis. We found no difference in mortality between the two groups (143/892 [16%] in the furosemide group versus 141/881 [16%] in the control group; odds ratio [OR], 0.84; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.63 to 1.13; p = 0.25). No significant differences in secondary outcomes were found. A significant improvement in survival was found in the subgroup of patients receiving furosemide bolus(es) as a preventive measure (43/613 [7.0%] versus 67/619 [10.8%], OR 0.62; 95% CI, 0.41 to 0.94; p = 0.03) Conclusions Intermittent furosemide administration is not associated with an increased mortality in patients with or at risk for AKI, although it may reduce mortality when used as a preventive measure. Future high-quality RCTs are needed to define the role of loop diuretics in AKI prevention and management. Trial registration The study protocol was registered on PROSPERO database for systematic reviews (Registration no. CRD42017078607 – http://www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROSPERO/display_record.php?ID=CRD42017078607).
