Epidemiology of AKI Evans et al. Crit Care Med. 2008;35:A156.
Epidemiology of AKI • The prevalence of AKI among patients in the intensive care unit is not known. • As many as 70% of critically ill patients experience some degree of AKI. • Approximately 5% of patients in the ICU receive renal replacement therapy (e.g., hemofiltration, hemodialysis). • Hospital mortality in this group is 40 - 80%.

Etiology of (intra-renal) AKIand Typical* Urinalysis Findings • Acute Tubular Necrosis (ATN) [~ 90% of AKI cases] • urine sediment benign, mild proteinuria/hematuria • muddy-brown casts • Allergic Interstitial Nephritis • urine eosinophils • variable urine sediment, proteinuria and hematuria • Rhabdomyolysis • brown urine, dip stick (+) blood but RBC (-) by microscopy • myoglobin (+) • Glomerulonephritis • marked proteinuria • RBC casts (highly specific) * urinalysis is often non-diagnostic
Cellular Injury and Repair in acute tubular necrosis (ATN) Injury Proliferation And Redifferentiation Normal Tubular Cells Propagation Inflammation Recovery (rapid) Injured Cells Recovery (slow) De- Differentiated Cells Necrotic * Cells Apoptotic Cells Exfoliation Into the Urine * very few necrotic cells are observed from patients with ATN
Presence of AKI is Strongly Associated with Hospital Mortality AKI = 5.5x mortality!!
Renal Replacement Therapy (RRT) The need for renal replacement therapy (rrt) is strongly associated with hospital mortality Metnitz et al. Crit Care Med. 2002
Effective Hydration Prevent hypotension Avoid nephrotoxins Unknown N-acetylcysteine Sodium Bicarbonate Prophylactic Hemofiltration Ineffective/harmful Diuretics Dopamine Other renal vasoactive drugs DA-1 agonists PDE inhibitors Ca++ blockers Adenosine antagonists Natriuretic peptides Prevention of AKI Goals of therapy are to prevent AKI or need for RRT Kellum et al. Clinical Evidence. 2004;11:1094-118.
Prevention • Maintain hydration (Isotonic IVF) • Reducing risk from nephrotoxins • Single vs. multiple daily doses of aminoglycosides • Lipid complex vs. standard amphotericin • Iso-osmomotic vs. standard or “low” osmolality radiocontrast media • Maintain perfusion pressure Kellum JA, et al. Clinical Evidence. 2004;11:1094-118.

Dopamine Can Increase Urine Output by Various Mechanisms • Direct renal vasodilatation (DA-1 receptors) • Increased cardiac output (-receptors) • Increased renal perfusion pressure (-receptors) • Inhibition of Na-K ATPase at the tubular epithelial cell level resulting in natriuresis Seri I et al. Am J Physiol. 1988;255:F666-73.
Dopamine is not Effective 328 patients in 23 ICUs Bellomo et al. Lancet. 2000;356:2139-43.

Harm Benefit

N-acetylcystein (NAC) 83 patients with CRI (mean Creat. 2.4) CT scans with low-osmolal contrast agent Tepel M et al. N Engl J Med. 2000;343:180-184.
NAC reduces the risk of AKI (increased creatinine) by 50%. Birck et al. Lancet. 2003;362:598-603.
Does NAC prevent AKI or just decrease Serum creatinine? • Hoffman et al. J Am Soc Nephrol. 2004;15:407-410. • Healthy volunteers given NAC showed a fall in serum creatinine without any change in cystatin C • NAC increases creatinine kinase activity • Increases tubular secretion of creatinine? • Decreased muscle production of creatinine?

Radio-contrast • So-called “low osmolality” radio-contrast • Iohexol: 700 - 800 mOSM • Iodixanol: 200 - 300 mOSM (iso-osmolar) • Incidence of AKI was 3% (iodixanol) compared with 26% (iohexol) (p = 0.002). Aspelin et al. N Engl J Med. 2003;348:491-99.
Effective Hemodialysis Biocompatible membranes More dialysis Unknown CRRT vs. IHD Earlier dialysis Ineffective/harmful Diuretics * Dopamine Treatment of AKI * Diuretics are never a treatment for oliguria but are sometimes required for management of volume overload. Kellum J et al. Clin Evid.2004;11:1094-118.
Goals of Renal Replacement Therapy (RRT) • Substitute for renal function • Control Volume • Correct acid-base abnormalities • Improve Clearance of toxins (e.g. uremia) • Reduce complications • Hasten/Permit Recovery • Prevent death
Techniques of RRT • Fluid Removal • water efflux through semi-permeable membrane • Solute Removal • Convection – ultrafiltrate • Diffusion - dialysis

What is Standard Dose RRT? • In the ATN study • Control patients received thrice weekly IHD with a delivered Kt/Vurea of 1.3. • Control patients received 95% of the prescribed dose of CRRT • In practice • IHD patients in the ICU receive a delivered Kt/Vurea of 1.1 or less • CRRT patients in the ICU receive ~80% of the prescribed dose.
Continuous vs. Intermittent RRT Bagshaw et al. Crit Care Med. 2008;36(2):610-617.
Treatment: Diuretics • Diuretics: Effects on outcome (small RCTs) • 66 patients randomized to receive furosemide (1.5 - 6.0 mg/kg) • No significant differences in recovery or need for HD. ~ Kleinknecht et al. Nephron. 1976;17:51-58. • 58 patients randomized to single dose (1g) vs. continued dosing of furosemide (3g/day). • Oliguria was reversed in 2/30 vs. 24/28. • No differences in mortality, renal recovery, or need for RRT. • Permanent deafness in one patient. ~ Brown et al.

Conclusions/Recommendations • AKI is a common ICU syndrome. • As many as 70% of ICU patients develop AKI. • Approximately 5% of ICU patients receive RRT. • AKI in the critically ill carries a very high mortality, and current treatment is disappointing. • Inflammation likely plays a significant role in the development of AKI.
