AKI in critically ill cancer patients: Do we need more studies? Peter Pickkers Department of Intensive Care Medicine Radboud universitymedicalcentre, Nijmegen Paris, March 28th 2017
Patient numbers who were identified at each level, and the percentage of the total number of patients Sepsis and non-sepsis ICU patients
Patient numbers who were identified at each level, and the percentage of the total number of patients 5.5% 8.8% 11.4% 26.3% Sepsis and non-sepsis ICU patients
Intensive Care Over Nations • Audit 2012 • Adult patients • ICU-LOS <24 h for routine postoperative surveillance: excluded • 10 day follow-up period • 10 069 patients were included in the Intensive Care Over Nations (ICON) audit • 9 579 patients were eligible for the analyses • 30% sepsis, 70% non-sepsis • Europe (54%), Asia (19%), and the Americas (17%) • P.I.: Prof JL Vincent

Hospital mortality • Recovery from AKI-F: 15-20% lower mortality
Hospital mortality • Recovery from AKI-F: 15-20% lower mortality
Hospital mortality • However, still twice as high as patients with No-AKI at all • Recovery from AKI-F: 15-20% lower mortality
Hospital mortality • Similar associations in no-sepsis patients
AKI in critically ill cancer patients • AKI occurs in 70% of critically ill cancer patients • Early ICU admission: better survival
Remaining questions • Difference in AKI kinetics per cause of AKI (cancer patients different from the ‘regular’ critically ill patient) • Effect of transition to other AKI severity category on outcome • Outcome AKI vs patients admitted with Chronic Renal Failure • Changes in ICU admission policy 2006-2017 • Role of biomarkers?
