Fluid balance after continuous renal replacement therapy initiation and outcome in paediatric multiple organ failure

Background. Acute kidney injury (AKI) treated with continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is a severe complication in trauma patients. The aim of the study was to assess primary traumatic injuries and secondary organ failures in severe posttraumatic AKI.Methods. Retrospective review of adult trauma patients admitted to the trauma centre at Oslo University Hospital Ullevål. Injury severity score (ISS) was used to assess the severity of primary injuries, and sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score was utilized to measure secondary organ failures.Results. Forty-two (8%) of 506 trauma patients admitted to intensive care unit developed AKI treated with CRRT, whereof 40 (95%) suffered blunt trauma mechanisms. Patients had extensive primary organ injuries with median (interquartile range) ISS 36 (27–49). The majority of the patients had respiratory (93% intubated) and cardiovascular (67% with inotropic and/or vasoactive medication) failure within 24 hours after admission. AKI was often part of multiple organ failure, most frequently respiratory and cardiovascular failure, affecting 33 (75%) and 30 (71%) of the patients, respectively.Conclusion. Trauma patients with AKI undergoing CRRT often had severe primary injuries due to blunt trauma. Most of them suffered from secondary multiple organ failure concomitant to AKI.

Introduction: Necrotizing fasciitis represents a life-threatening infectious condition that causes spreading necrotisis of superficial fascia and subcutaneous cellular tissues. We describe the case of a patient diagnosed with septic and toxic shocks leading to multiple organ failure successfully treated with a combination of extracorporeal life support, continuous renal replacement therapy, and a hemoadsorption device. Methods: A 41-year-old patient presented with necrotizing fasciitis and multi-organ failure. Initial extracorporeal life support therapy was implanted, compensating for systolic failure. Due to acute renal failure that persisted in time, continuous renal replacement therapy was added. Despite these treatments and as a last attempt to control the septic condition, a CytoSorb® hemoadsorption device was installed in parallel to the extracorporeal life support circuit and two sessions were run. Results: During the days following CytoSorb® treatment, hemodynamic stabilization was observed, as well as normalization of lactic acidosis and blood parameters. Conclusion: This case describes the successful use of CytoSorb® with continuous renal replacement therapy and extracorporeal life support in a combined way to overcome a critical phase of septic shock in a young adult patient. This combination of treatments turned out to be efficient for this patient in the context of necrotizing fasciitis.

Objective: To identify whether the timing of initiation of continuous renal replacement therapy affects outcome in septic patients with acute kidney injury in term of 28 days mortality. Study Design: Cross sectional analytical study. Place and Duration of Study: This research was conducted at department of Anaesthesiology and critical careunit of the Aga Khan University Hospital, Karachi, from Oct 2018 to Jun 2019. Methodology: The study reviewed all adult patients aged >18 years who developed acute kidney injury afterseptic shock and required continuous renal replacement therapy in surgical intensive care unit. Considering thevalue of blood urea nitrogen, patients were classified into two groups. One was in early group that‟s was defined as blood urea nitrogen value of <100 mg/dl just before continuous renal replacement therapy initiation while the patients who have blood urea nitrogen value of ≥100 mg/dl just prior to continuous renal replacement therapy initiation were classified as late group. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was performed and median survival was computed. Results: Forty patients were included for analysis. There were thirty patients (75%) in early group in whomcontinuous renal replacement therapy was started with mean blood urea nitrogen of 66 ± 20.2 mg/dL and 10(25%) patients were in late group with mean blood urea nitrogen of 137 ± 28.4 mg/dL. The overall survival ratesin both groups were 49.6%, and 10.4% at 10 and 25 days, respectively. Median survival time was not statisticallysignificant between early and late continuous renal replacement...........
