Abstract
Paediatric acute liver failure (PALF) is often characterised by its rapidity of onset and potential for significant morbidity and even mortality. Patients often develop multiorgan dysfunction/failure, including severe acute kidney injury (AKI). Whilst the management of PALF focuses on complications of hepatic dysfunction, the associated kidney impairment can significantly affect patient outcomes. Severe AKI requiring continuous kidney replacement therapy (CKRT) is a common complication of both PALF and liver transplantation. In both scenarios, the need for CKRT is a poor prognostic indicator. In adults, AKI has been shown to complicate ALF in 25-50% of cases. In PALF, the incidence of AKI is often higher compared to other critically ill paediatric ICU populations, with reports of up to 40% in some observational studies. Furthermore, those presenting with AKI regularly have a more severe grade of PALF at presentation. Observational studies in the paediatric population corroborate this, though data are not as robust-mainly reflecting single-centre cohorts. Perioperative benefits of CKRT include helping to clear water-soluble toxins such as ammonia, balancing electrolytes, preventing fluid overload, and managing raised intracranial pressure. As liver transplantation often takes 6-10 h, it is proposed that these benefits could be extended to the intraoperative period, avoiding any hiatus. Intraoperative CKRT (IoCKRT) has been shown to be practicable, safe and may help sicker recipients tolerate the operation with outcomes analogous with less ill patients not requiring IoCKRT. Here, we provide a comprehensive guide describing the rationale, practicalities, and current evidence base surrounding IoCKRT during transplantation in the paediatric population.

Injury 2024:111758. [PMID: 39098571 DOI: 10.1016/j.injury.2024.111758] [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: 02/27/2024] [Revised: 06/28/2024] [Accepted: 07/28/2024] [Indexed: 08/06/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Older patients are expected to comprise 40 % of trauma admissions in the next 30 years. The use of whole blood (WB) has shown promise in improving mortality while lowering the utilization of blood products. However, the use of WB in older trauma patients has not been examined. The objective of our study is to determine the safety and efficacy of a WB first transfusion strategy in injured older patients. METHODS Older trauma patients, defined as age ≥55 years old, were reviewed from March 2016-November 2021. Patients that received a WB first resuscitation strategy were compared to those that received a ratio based component strategy. Demographics as well as complications rates, blood product transfusion volumes, and mortality were evaluated. Univariate and multivariable analysis was used to determine independent predictors of mortality. RESULTS There were 388 older trauma patients that received any blood products during the study period. A majority of patients received a WB first resuscitation strategy (83 %). Compared to patients that received component therapy, patients that received WB first were more likely female, less likely to have a penetrating mechanism, and had a slightly lower injury severity score. The-30 day mortality rate was comparable (WB 36% vs component 37 %, p = 0.914). While rates of AKI were slightly higher in those that received WB, this did not result in increased rates of renal replacement therapy (3 % vs 2 %, p = 1). Further, compared to patients that received components, patients that were resuscitated with a WB first strategy significantly utilized lower median volumes of platelets (0 mL vs 197 mL, p < 0.001), median volumes of plasma (0 mL vs 1253 mL, p < 0.001, and median total volume of blood products (1000 mL vs 2859 mL, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION The use of WB in the older trauma patient appears safe, with mortality and complication rates comparable to component therapy. Blood product utilization is significantly less in those that are resuscitated with WB first.

J Cardiothorac Vasc Anesth 2024; 38:1492-1498. [PMID: 38580475 DOI: 10.1053/j.jvca.2024.03.003] [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: 08/03/2023] [Revised: 02/27/2024] [Accepted: 03/03/2024] [Indexed: 04/07/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To understand if red blood cell (RBC) transfusions are independently associated with a risk of mortality, prolonged intubation, or infectious, cardiac, or renal morbid outcomes. DESIGN A retrospective review. SETTING A single-institution university hospital. PARTICIPANTS A total of 2,458 patients undergoing coronary bypass artery graft and/or valvular surgery from July 2014 through January 2018. INTERVENTIONS No interventions were done. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS The primary outcome was the occurrence of an adverse event or prolonged intubation. Infectious, cardiac, and renal composite outcomes were also defined. These composites, along with mortality, were analyzed individually and then combined to form the "any adverse events" composite. Preoperative demographic and intraoperative parameters were analyzed as univariate risk factors for adverse outcomes. Logistic regression was used to screen variables, with a p value criterion of p < 0.05 for entry into the model selection procedure. A backward selection algorithm was used with variable entry and retention criteria of p < 0.05 to select the final multivariate model. Multivariate logistic regression models were used to determine whether there was an association between the volume of RBC transfusion and the defined adverse event after adjusting for covariates. A p value < 0.01 was considered statistically significant in the final model of each aim to adjust for multiple comparisons. The final logistic models for each of the following outcomes indicate an increased risk of that outcome per each additional unit of RBC transfused. For prolonged intubation, the odds ratio (OR) was 1.493 (p < 0.0001), OR = 1.358 (p < 0.0001) for infectious composite outcomes, OR = 1.247 (p < 0.0001) for adverse renal outcomes, and OR = 1.467 (p < 0.0001) for any adverse event. CONCLUSIONS The authors demonstrated a strong independent association between RBC transfusion volume and adverse outcomes after cardiac surgery. Efforts should be undertaken, such as preoperative anemia management and control of coagulopathy, in order to minimize the need for RBC transfusion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fresh frozen plasma (FFP) transfusion is used to manage coagulopathy and bleeding in cardiac surgery patients despite uncertainty about its safety and effectiveness. METHODS We performed a propensity score matched analysis of the Australian and New Zealand Society of Cardiac and Thoracic Surgeons National Cardiac Surgery Database including patients from 39 centres from 2005 to 2018. We investigated the association of perioperative FFP transfusion with mortality and other clinical outcomes. RESULTS Of 119,138 eligible patients, we successfully matched 13,131 FFP recipients with 13,131 controls. FFP transfusion was associated with 30-day mortality (odds ratio (OR), 1.41; 99% CI, 1.17-1.71; p < .0001), but not with long-term mortality (hazard ratio (HR), 0.92; 99% CI, 0.85-1.00; p = .007, Holm-Bonferroni α = 0.0004). FFP was also associated with return to theatre for bleeding (OR, 1.97; 99% CI, 1.66-2.34; p < .0001), prolonged intubation (OR, 1.15; 99% CI, 1.05-1.26; p < .0001) and increased chest tube drainage (Mean difference (MD) in mL, 131; 99% CI, 120-141; p < .0001). It was also associated with reduced postoperative creatinine levels (MD in g/L, -6.33; 99% CI, -10.28 to -2.38; p < .0001). CONCLUSION In a multicentre, propensity score matched analysis, perioperative FFP transfusion was associated with increased 30-day mortality and had variable associations with secondary clinical outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Blood transfusion reactions may have a negative impact on organ function. It is unknown whether this association holds true for acute kidney injury (AKI). Therefore, we conducted a cohort study to assess the association between transfusion reactions and the incidence of AKI and major adverse kidney events. METHODS In this retrospective cohort study, we included patients who received transfusion of blood products during hospitalization at the Hospital Civil of Guadalajara. We analyzed them according to the development of transfusion reactions, and the aim was to assess the association between transfusion reactions and AKI during long-term follow-up. RESULTS From 2017 to 2021, 81,635 patients received a blood product transfusion, and 516 were included in our study. The most common transfusion was red blood cell packaging (50.4%), fresh frozen plasma (28.7%) and platelets (20.9%); of the 516 patients, 129 (25%) had transfusion reactions. Patients who had transfusion reactions were older and had more comorbidities. The most common type of transfusion reaction was allergic reaction (70.5%), followed by febrile nonhemolytic reaction (11.6%) and anaphylactoid reaction (8.5%). Most cases were considered mild. Acute kidney injury was more prevalent among those who had transfusion reactions (14.7%) than among those who did not (7.8%), p = < 0.01; those with AKI had a higher frequency of diabetes, vasopressors, and insulin use. Transfusion reactions were independently associated with the development of AKI (RR 2.1, p = < 0.02). Major adverse kidney events were more common in those with transfusion reactions. The mortality rate was similar between subgroups. CONCLUSION In our retrospective cohort of patients who received blood product transfusions, 25% experienced transfusion reactions, and this event was associated with a twofold increase in the probability of developing AKI and some of the major adverse kidney events during long follow-up.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION cardiac surgery associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI) has a number of preoperative and intraoperative risk factors. Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) factors have not yet been elucidated in a single multivariate model. The aim of this study is to develop a dynamic predictive model for CSA-AKI. METHODS retrospective study on 910 consecutive adult cardiac surgery patients. Baseline data were used to settle a preoperative CSA-AKI risk model (static risk model, SRM); CPB related data were assessed for association with CSA-AKI. CPB duration, nadir oxygen delivery, time of exposure to a low oxygen delivery, nadir mean arterial pressure, peak lactates and red blood cell transfusion were included in a multivariate dynamic perfusion risk (DPR). SRM and DPR were merged into a final logistic regression model (multifactorial dynamic perfusion index, MDPI). The three risk models were assessed for discrimination and calibration. RESULTS the SRM model had an AUC of 0.696 (95% CI 0.663-0.727), the DPR model of 0.723 (95% CI 0.691-0.753), and the MDPI model an AUC of 0.769 (95% CI 0.739-0.798). The difference in AUC between SRM and DPR was not significant (p = 0.495) whereas the AUC of MDPI was significantly larger than that of SRM (p = 0.004) and DPR (p = 0.015). CONCLUSIONS inclusion of dynamic indices of the quality of CPB improves the discrimination and calibration of the preoperative risk scores. The MDPI has better predictive ability than the existing static risk models and is a promising tool to integrate different factors into an advanced concept of goal-directed perfusion.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Fresh frozen plasma (FFP) transfusion in the intensive care unit (ICU) is commonly used to treat coagulopathy and bleeding in cardiac surgery, despite suggestion that it may increase the risk of morbidity and mortality through mechanisms such as fluid overload and infection. METHODS We retrospectively studied consecutive adults undergoing cardiac surgery from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care III and IV databases. We applied propensity score matching to investigate the independent association of within-ICU FFP transfusion with mortality and other key clinical outcomes. RESULTS Of our 12,043 adults who met inclusion criteria, 1585 (13.2%) received perioperative FFP with a median of 2.48 units per recipient (interquartile range [IQR]: 2.04, 4.33) at a median time of 1.83 h (IQR: 0.75, 3.75) after ICU admission. After propensity matching of 952 FFP recipients to 952 controls, we found no significant association between FFP use and hospital mortality (odds ratio (OR): 1.58; 99% confidence interval (CI): 0.57, 3.71), suspected infection (OR: 0.72; 99% CI: 0.49, 1.08), or acute kidney injury (OR: 1.23; 99% CI: 0.91, 1.67). However, FFP was associated with increased days in hospital (adjusted mean difference (AMD): 1.28; 99% CI: 0.27, 2.41; p = .0050), days in intensive care (AMD: 1.28; 99% CI: 0.27, 2.28; p = .0011), and chest tube output in millilitres up to 8 h after transfusion (AMD: 92.98; 99% CI: 52.22, 133.74; p < .0001). CONCLUSIONS After propensity matching, FFP transfusion was not associated with increased hospital mortality, but was associated with increased length of stay and no decrease in bleeding in the early post-transfusion period.

Abstract
PURPOSE The incidence, patient features, risk factors and outcomes of surgery-associated postoperative acute kidney injury (PO-AKI) across different countries and health care systems is unclear. METHODS We conducted an international prospective, observational, multi-center study in 30 countries in patients undergoing major surgery (> 2-h duration and postoperative intensive care unit (ICU) or high dependency unit admission). The primary endpoint was the occurrence of PO-AKI within 72 h of surgery defined by the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria. Secondary endpoints included PO-AKI severity and duration, use of renal replacement therapy (RRT), mortality, and ICU and hospital length of stay. RESULTS We studied 10,568 patients and 1945 (18.4%) developed PO-AKI (1236 (63.5%) KDIGO stage 1500 (25.7%) KDIGO stage 2209 (10.7%) KDIGO stage 3). In 33.8% PO-AKI was persistent, and 170/1945 (8.7%) of patients with PO-AKI received RRT in the ICU. Patients with PO-AKI had greater ICU (6.3% vs. 0.7%) and hospital (8.6% vs. 1.4%) mortality, and longer ICU (median 2 (Q1-Q3, 1-3) days vs. 3 (Q1-Q3, 1-6) days) and hospital length of stay (median 14 (Q1-Q3, 9-24) days vs. 10 (Q1-Q3, 7-17) days). Risk factors for PO-AKI included older age, comorbidities (hypertension, diabetes, chronic kidney disease), type, duration and urgency of surgery as well as intraoperative vasopressors, and aminoglycosides administration. CONCLUSION In a comprehensive multinational study, approximately one in five patients develop PO-AKI after major surgery. Increasing severity of PO-AKI is associated with a progressive increase in adverse outcomes. Our findings indicate that PO-AKI represents a significant burden for health care worldwide.

Abstract
Cardiac Surgery-Associated Acute Kidney Injury (CSA-AKI) is a serious complication seen in approximately 20-30% of cardiac surgery patients. The underlying pathophysiology is complex, often involving both patient- and procedure related risk factors. In contrast to AKI occurring after other types of major surgery, the use of cardiopulmonary bypass comprises both additional advantages and challenges, including non-pulsatile flow, targeted blood flow and pressure as well as the ability to manipulate central venous pressure (congestion). With an increasing focus on the impact of CSA-AKI on both short and long-term mortality, early identification and management of high-risk patients for CSA-AKI has evolved. The present narrative review gives an up-to-date summary on definition, diagnosis, underlying pathophysiology, monitoring and implications of CSA-AKI, including potential preventive interventions. The review will provide the reader with an in-depth understanding of how to identify, support and provide a more personalized and tailored perioperative management to avoid development of CSA-AKI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We examined the relationship between blood transfusion and long-term adverse events to evaluate the clinical impact of red blood cell (RBC) transfusion on patients undergoing cardiac valve surgery. METHODS From the National Health Insurance Service database, individuals undergoing heart valve surgery were verified, including aortic valve (AV), mitral valve (MV), tricuspid valve (TV), and complex valves (more than 2 valve surgeries). The interested outcomes were incidence of death, ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic stroke, and admission for myocardial infarction during follow-up. Associations between perioperative RBC transfusion and long-term cardiovascular events were analyzed with Cox-proportional hazard model. RESULTS Perioperative RBC transfusion (±2 days from the day of surgery) was categorized into 0, 1, 2, and >3 units based on the number of packs transfused. From 2003 to 2019, the data of 58,299 individuals were retrieved (51.6% were male and 58% were aged above 60 years). The median follow-up duration was 5.53 years. Of the total cohort, 86.5% received at least 1 transfusion. In multivariable analysis, adverse cardiovascular event risk proportionally increased with transfusion in a dose-dependent manner. The adjusted hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals of outcomes after the transfusion of 1, 2, and ≥3 units compared to those with no transfusion were as follows: death, 1.53 (1.41-1.66), 1.97 (1.81-2.14), and 3.03 (2.79-3.29); ischemic stroke, 1.27 (1.16-1.39), 1.31 (1.19-1.44), and 1.51 (1.38-1.66); hemorrhagic stroke, 1.38 (1.16-1.66), 1.71 (1.43-2.05), and 2.31 (1.94-2.76); and myocardial infarction 1.35 (1.13-1.62), 1.60 (1.33-1.91), and 1.99 (1.66-2.38), respectively (all P < .01). CONCLUSIONS In the analysis of the national cohort, perioperative RBC transfusion during heart valve surgery was associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes correlated with the volume of RBC transfusion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In this international, multicenter study of patients undergoing lung transplantation (LT), we explored the association between the amount of intraoperative packed red blood cell (PRBC) transfusion and occurrence of primary graft dysfunction (PGD) and associated outcomes. METHODS The Extracorporeal Life Support in LT Registry includes data on LT recipients from 9 high-volume (>40 transplants/y) transplant centers (2 from Europe, 7 from the United States). Adult patients who underwent bilateral orthotopic lung transplant from January 2016 to January 2020 were included. The primary outcome of interest was the occurrence of grade 3 PGD in the first 72 h after LT. RESULTS We included 729 patients who underwent bilateral orthotopic lung transplant between January 2016 and November 2020. LT recipient population tertiles based on the amount of intraoperative PRBC transfusion (0, 1-4, and >4 units) were significantly different in terms of diagnosis, age, gender, body mass index, mean pulmonary artery pressure, lung allocation score, hemoglobin, prior chest surgery, preoperative hospitalization, and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation requirement. Inverse probability treatment weighting logistic regression showed that intraoperative PRBC transfusion of >4 units was significantly ( P < 0.001) associated with grade 3 PGD within 72 h (odds ratio [95% confidence interval], 2.2 [1.6-3.1]). Inverse probability treatment weighting analysis excluding patients with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support produced similar findings (odds ratio [95% confidence interval], 2.4 [1.7-3.4], P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS In this multicenter, international registry study of LT patients, intraoperative transfusion of >4 units of PRBCs was associated with an increased risk of grade 3 PGD within 72 h. Efforts to improve post-LT outcomes should include perioperative blood conservation measures.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the independent association of platelet transfusion with hospital mortality and key relevant clinical outcomes in cardiac surgery. DESIGN A single-center, propensity score-matched, retrospective, cohort study. SETTING At an American tertiary teaching hospital data from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care III and IV databases from 2001 to 2019. PARTICIPANTS Consecutive adults undergoing coronary artery bypass graft and/or cardiac valvular surgery. INTERVENTIONS Platelet transfusion during perioperative intensive care unit (ICU) admission. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Overall, 12,043 adults met the study inclusion criteria. Of these, 1,621 (13.5%) received apheresis-leukoreduced platelets, with a median of 1.19 units per recipient (IQR: 0.93-1.19) at a median of 1.78 hours (IQR: 0.75-4.25) after ICU admission. The platelet count was measured in 1,176 patients (72.5%) before transfusion, with a median count of 120 × 109/L (IQR: 89.0-157.0), and only 53 (3.3%) had platelet counts below 50 × 109/L. After propensity matching of 1,046 platelet recipients with 1,046 controls, perioperative platelet transfusion carried no association with in-hospital mortality (odds ratio [OR]: 1.28; 99% CI: 0.49-3.35; p = 0.4980). However, it was associated with a pattern of decreased odds of suspected infection (eg, respiratory infection, urinary tract infection, septicaemia, or other; OR: 0.70; 99% CI: 0.50-0.97; p = 0.0050), days in the hospital (adjusted mean difference [AMD]: 0.86; 99% CI: -0.27 to 1.98; p = 0.048), or days in intensive care (AMD 0.83; 99% CI: -0.15 to 1.82; p = 0.0290). CONCLUSIONS Platelet transfusion was not associated with hospital mortality, but it was associated with decreased odds of suspected infection and with shorter ICU and hospital stays.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common and severe complication of cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). This study aimed to establish a model to predict the probability of postoperative AKI in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with CPB. METHODS We conducted a retrospective, multicenter study to analyze 1082 patients undergoing cardiac surgery under CPB. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression model was used to optimize feature selection for the AKI model. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was applied to build a prediction model incorporating the feature selected in the previously mentioned model. Finally, we used multiple methods to evaluate the accuracy and clinical applicability of the model. RESULTS Age, gender, hypertension, CPB duration, intraoperative 5% bicarbonate solution and red blood cell transfusion, urine volume were identified as important factors. Then, these risk factors were created into nomogram to predict the incidence of AKI after cardiac surgery under CPB. CONCLUSION We developed a nomogram to predict the incidence of AKI after cardiac surgery. This model can be used as a reference tool for evaluating early medical intervention to prevent postoperative AKI.

Abstract
Anemia is a risk factor for acute kidney injury (AKI) following cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Whether red blood cell (RBC) transfusion-enhanced hemoglobin levels contribute to low AKI rates remains unclear. We investigated the interaction between hemoglobin, RBC transfusion, and AKI after CPB. Hemoglobin trajectories within 72 h were analyzed using group-based trajectory analysis. Multivariable logistic analysis and inverse probability-weighted regression were adopted to evaluate the associations between hemoglobin and AKI in RBC and non-RBC transfusion subgroups. We analyzed 6226 patients’ data. In the transfusion subgroup, three hemoglobin trajectories were identified. The AKI incidence was lowest in the trajectory with the lowest hemoglobin level (trajectory 1, less transfusion), and it was comparable in trajectories 2 and 3 (20.7% vs. 32.7% vs. 29.4%, p < 0.001, respectively). In four logistic models, the odds ratio for AKI with trajectory 1 as the reference ranged from 1.44 to 1.85 for trajectory 2 (p < 0.001) and 1.45 to 1.66 for trajectory 3 (p < 0.050). The average treatment effect on AKI was 5.6% (p = 0.009) for trajectory 2 and 7.5% (p = 0.041) for trajectory 3, with trajectory 1 as the reference. In the non-RBC transfusion subgroup, three approximately linear hemoglobin trajectories (9, 10, and 12 g/dL) were observed; however, both the crude and adjusted AKI incidence were similar within the three trajectories. In patients undergoing CPB, hemoglobin level >9 g/dL was not associated with decreased AKI incidence in the subgroup without RBC transfusion. However, in patients with RBC transfusion, maintaining hemoglobin level >9 g/dL by RBC transfusion was associated with increased AKI incidence.

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
BACKGROUND Transfusion rates in cardiac surgery are high. AIM To determine if intraoperative autologous blood removal without volume replacement is associated with fewer homologous blood transfusions without increasing acute kidney injury. SETTING AND DESIGN Retrospective, comparative study. MATERIALS AND METHODS Adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery, excluding those who underwent ventricular assist device surgery, heart transplants, or cardiac surgery without cardiopulmonary bypass were excluded, who had 1-3 units of intraoperative autologous blood removal were compared to patients without blood removal for determination of volume replacement, vasopressor support, acute kidney injury, and transfusions. RESULTS Autologous blood removal was associated with fewer patients receiving homologous transfusions: intraoperative red cell transfusions fell from 75% (Control) to 48% (1 unit removed), 40% (2 units), and 30% (3 units), P < 0.001. Total intraoperative and postoperative homologous RBC units transfused were lower in the blood removal groups: median (interquartile range) 3 (1, 6) in Control patients and 0 (0, 2), 0 (0, 2) and 0 (0, 1) in the 1, 2, and 3 units removed groups, P < 0.001. Similarly, plasma, platelet, and cryoprecipitate transfusions decreased. After adjustment for confounders, increased amounts of autologous blood removal were associated with increased intravenous fluids, only when 2 units were removed, and trivially increased vasopressor use. However, it was not associated with acidosis or acute kidney injury. CONCLUSIONS Intraoperative autologous blood removal without volume replacement of 1-3 units for later autologous transfusion is associated with decreased homologous transfusions without acidosis or acute kidney injury.

Abstract
Hemolytic-uremic syndrome (HUS) can occur as a systemic complication of infections with Shiga toxin (Stx)-producing Escherichia coli and is characterized by microangiopathic hemolytic anemia and acute kidney injury. Hitherto, therapy has been limited to organ-supportive strategies. Erythropoietin (EPO) stimulates erythropoiesis and is approved for the treatment of certain forms of anemia, but not for HUS-associated hemolytic anemia. EPO and its non-hematopoietic analog pyroglutamate helix B surface peptide (pHBSP) have been shown to mediate tissue protection via an innate repair receptor (IRR) that is pharmacologically distinct from the erythropoiesis-mediating receptor (EPO-R). Here, we investigated the changes in endogenous EPO levels in patients with HUS and in piglets and mice subjected to preclinical HUS models. We found that endogenous EPO was elevated in plasma of humans, piglets, and mice with HUS, regardless of species and degree of anemia, suggesting that EPO signaling plays a role in HUS pathology. Therefore, we aimed to examine the therapeutic potential of EPO and pHBSP in mice with Stx-induced HUS. Administration of EPO or pHBSP improved 7-day survival and attenuated renal oxidative stress but did not significantly reduce renal dysfunction and injury in the employed model. pHBSP, but not EPO, attenuated renal nitrosative stress and reduced tubular dedifferentiation. In conclusion, targeting the EPO-R/IRR axis reduced mortality and renal oxidative stress in murine HUS without occurrence of thromboembolic complications or other adverse side effects. We therefore suggest that repurposing EPO for the treatment of patients with hemolytic anemia in HUS should be systematically investigated in future clinical trials.

Longitudinal assessment of renal function after lung transplantation for cystic fibrosis: transition from post-operative acute kidney injury to acute kidney disease and chronic kidney failure. J Nephrol 2022; 35:1885-1893. [PMID: 35838909 PMCID: PMC9458565 DOI: 10.1007/s40620-022-01392-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2022] [Accepted: 06/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The clinical trajectory of post-operative acute kidney injury (AKI) following lung transplantation for cystic fibrosis is unknown. METHODS Incidence and risk factors for post-operative AKI, acute kidney disease (AKD) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) were retrospectively analyzed in cystic fibrosis patients undergoing lung transplantation. Logistic regressions, Chi-square, Cuzick rank tests, and Cox-proportional hazard models were used. RESULTS Eighty-three patients were included. Creatinine peaked 3[2-4] days after transplantation, with 15(18%), 15(18%), and 20(24%) patients having post-operative AKI stages 1, 2, and 3, while 15(18%), 19(23%) and 10(12%) developed AKD stage 1, stage 2 and 3, respectively. Higher AKI stage was associated with worsening AKD (p = 0.009) and CKD (p = 0.015) stages. Of the 50 patients with AKI, 32(66%) transitioned to AKD stage > 0, and then 27 (56%) to CKD stage > 1. Female sex, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support as a bridge to lung transplant and at the end of the surgery, the use of intraoperative blood components, and cold-ischemia time were associated with increased risk of post-operative AKI and AKD. Higher AKI stage prolonged invasive mechanical ventilation (p = 0.0001), ICU stay (p = 0.0001), and hospital stay (p = 0.0001), and increased the incidence of primary graft dysfunction (p = 0.035). Both AKI and AKD stages > 2 worsened long-term survival with risk ratios of 3.71 (1.34-10.2), p = 0.0131 and 2.65(1.02-6.87), p = 0.0443, respectively. DISCUSSION AKI is frequent in cystic fibrosis patients undergoing lung transplantation, it often evolves to AKD and to chronic kidney disease, thereby worsening short- and long-term outcomes.

A Novel Radiomics-Based Machine Learning Framework for Prediction of Acute Kidney Injury-Related Delirium in Patients Who Underwent Cardiovascular Surgery. COMPUTATIONAL AND MATHEMATICAL METHODS IN MEDICINE 2022; 2022:4242069. [PMID: 35341014 PMCID: PMC8956431 DOI: 10.1155/2022/4242069] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2021] [Revised: 01/02/2022] [Accepted: 02/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) can be caused by multiple etiologies and is characterized by a sudden and severe decrease in kidney function. Understanding the independent risk factors associated with the development of AKI and its early detection can refine the risk management and clinical decision-making of high-risk patients after cardiovascular surgery. A retrospective analysis was performed in a single teaching hospital between December 1, 2019, and December 31, 2020. The diagnostic performance of novel biomarkers was assessed using random forest, support vector machine, and multivariate logistic regression. The nomogram from multivariate analysis of risk factors associated with AKI indicated that only LVEF, red blood cell input, and ICUmvat contribute to AKI differentiation and that the difference is statistically significant (P < 0.05). Seven radiomics biomarkers were found among 65 patients to be highly correlated with AKI-associated delirium. The importance of the variables was determined using the multilayer perceptron model; fivefold cross-validation was applied to determine the most important delirium risk factors in radiomics of the hippocampus. Finally, we established a radiomics-based machine learning framework to predict AKI-induced delirium in patients who underwent cardiovascular surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gelatin has been used as a plasma volume expander because of its ability to preserve intravascular volume more effectively than crystalloids. However, gelatin may have detrimental effects on kidney function and increase the risk of acute kidney injury (AKI). METHOD We investigated by retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data whether the administration of 4% succinyl gelatin is associated with an increased risk of AKI after cardiac surgery. We compared two propensity score-matched groups of 1,187 patients (crystalloid group and gelatin group). RESULTS The incidence of AKI was similar in both groups (gelatin 21% and crystalloid 20%) (p = 0.414). The incidence of moderate AKI (8% vs. 6%) was higher in the gelatin group, but there was no difference in mild or severe AKI. Postoperative serum creatine on the first (70 vs. 70 μmol L-1 , p = 0.689) or fourth (71 vs. 70, p = 0.313) postoperative day was similar between groups and there was no difference in the need for new renal replacement therapy (p = 0.999). Patients in the gelatin group received less crystalloids (2080 ml vs. 4130 ml, p = 0.001) and total fluids (3760 ml vs. 4180 ml, p = 0.001), their fluid balance was less positive (p = 0.001) and they required less vasoactive and inotropic medication (p = 0.001). Gelatin was not associated with increased mortality compared to the crystalloid group. CONCLUSION Gelatin was not associated with AKI after cardiac surgery.

Adverse Events of Percutaneous Microaxial Left Ventricular Assist Devices-A Retrospective, Single-Centre Cohort Study. J Clin Med 2021; 10:jcm10163710.

Abstract
Worldwide, the left ventricular assist device Impella® (Abiomed, Danvers, MA, USA) is increasingly implanted in patients with acute cardiogenic shock or undergoing high-risk cardiac interventions. Despite its long history of use, few studies have assessed its safety and possible complications associated with its use. All patients treated with a left-sided Impella® device at the University Hospital of Basel from 1 January 2011 to 31 December 2019 were enrolled. The primary endpoint was the composite rate of mortality and adverse events (bleeding, acute kidney injury, and limb ischemia). Out of 281 included patients, at least one adverse event was present in 262 patients (93%). Rates of in-hospital, 90-day, and one-year mortality were 48%, 47%, and 50%, respectively. BARC type 3 bleeding (62%) and hemolysis (41.6%) were the most common complications. AKI was observed in 50% of all patients. Renal replacement therapy was required in 97 (35%) of all patients. Limb ischemia occurred in 13% of cases. Bleeding and hemolysis are common Impella®-associated complications. Additionally, we found a high rate of AKI. A careful selection of patients receiving microaxial LV support and defining the indication for its use are essential measures to be taken for the benefits to outweigh potential complications.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication following single ventricle congenital heart surgery. Data regarding AKI following Fontan conversion (FC) surgery are limited. This study evaluated the incidence, predictors of, and prognostic value of AKI following FC. Single-center retrospective cohort study, including consecutive FC patients from December 1994 to December 2016. Medical records were reviewed. AKI was classified into AKI-1/AKI-2/AKI-3 using Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes criteria. Multivariable logistic regression identified risk factors for AKI≥2. Chi-square and 2-sample t-tests assessed associations between AKI≥2 and postoperative outcomes. Mid-term heart-transplant-free survival among AKI0-1 vs AKI2-3 groups was compared using Kaplan-Meier curves and log-rank test. We included 139 FC patients: age at FC 24 (25th-75th, 19-31) years; 81% initial atrio-pulmonary Fontan; follow-up 8.3 ± 5.3 years following FC. Post-FC, 63 patients (45%) developed AKI (AKI-1 = 37 [27%]; AKI-2 = 10 [7%]; AKI-3 = 16 [11%]). AKI recovered by hospital discharge in 86%, 80%, and 19% of patients with AKI-1/AKI-2/AKI-3, respectively. Independent risk factors for AKI≥2 included older age (OR 1.07, 95%CI 1.01-1.15; P = 0.027); ≥3 prior sternotomies (OR = 6.11; 95%CI = 1.59-23.47; P = 0.009); greater preoperative right atrial pressure (OR 1.19; 1.02-1.38; P = 0.024), and prior catheter ablation procedure (OR 3.45; 1.17-10.18; P = 0.036). AKI≥2 was associated with: longer chest tube duration (9 [5-57] vs 7 [3-28] days; P = 0.01); longer mechanical ventilation time (2 [1-117] vs 1 [1-6] days; P = 0.01); greater need for dialysis (31% v s0%; P < 0.001); and longer postoperative length of stay (18 [8-135] vs 10 [6-58] days; P < 0.001). AKI 2-3 patients had worse mid-term heart-transplant-free survival. Half of the patients undergoing FC develop AKI. AKI 2-3 is associated with worse early postoperative outcomes and reduced mid-term transplant-free survival following FC. Knowledge of AKI predictors may allow for improved FC risk stratification, patient selection, and perioperative management in this high-risk population.
