Background. Since the first diagnosed case of infection with the novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), there has been a rapid spread of the disease with an increasing number of cases confirmed every day, as well as a rising death toll. An association has been reported between acute kidney injury (AKI) and mortality in patients infected with SARS-CoV-2. Therefore, our study was conducted to explore possible risk factors of AKI as well as whether AKI was a risk factor for worse outcome, especially mortality among patients with coronavirus disease (COVID-19). Methods. We included all hospital admissions with confirmed or clinically diagnosed COVID-19 from January 29 to February 25, 2020. We collected demographic and epidemiological information, past medical history, symptoms, laboratory tests, treatments, and outcome data from electronic medical records. A total of 492 patients with diagnosed or clinically diagnosed COVID-19 were included in this study. Results. The prevalence rate of AKI was 7.32%. Among the factors associated with AKI, males versus females (aOR 2.73), chronic kidney disease (aOR 42.2), hypertension (aOR 2.82), increased leucocytes (aOR 6.08), and diuretic use (aOR 7.89) were identified as independent risk factors for AKI among patients infected by SARS-CoV-2. There was a significant difference in hospital fees and death in patients with and without AKI ( p < 0.05 ). The mortality rate in patients with AKI was 63.9%. Conclusions. AKI was widespread among patients with COVID-19. The risk factors of AKI in COVID-19 patients included sex, chronic kidney disease, hypertension, infection, and diuretic use. AKI may be associated with a worse outcome, especially mortality in COVID-19 patients.

Chronic kidney disease is a global health burden, with an estimated prevalence of 11–13%, with the majority of patients diagnosed as stage 3, and is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. The incidence of acute kidney injury is increasing, and estimated to be present in one in five acute hospital admissions, and there is a bidirectional relationship between acute and chronic kidney disease. The relevance to the patient with cardiovascular disease relates to increased perioperative risk, as reduced kidney function is an independent risk factor for adverse postoperative cardiovascular outcomes including myocardial infarction, stroke, and progression of heart failure. Furthermore, patients undergoing cardiovascular investigations are at risk of developing acute kidney injury, in particular where iodinated contrast is administered. This chapter reviews the classification of renal disease and its impact on cardiovascular disease, as well as potential methods for reducing the development of contrast-induced acute kidney injury.

Purpose: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a severe complication in medical and surgical intensive care units accounting for a high morbidity and mortality. Incidence, risk factors, and prognostic impact of this deleterious condition are well established in this setting. Data concerning the neurocritically ill patients is scarce. Therefore, aim of this study was to determine the incidence of AKI and elucidate risk factors in this special population. Methods: Patients admitted to a specialized neurocritical care unit between 2005 and 2011 with a length of stay above 48 hours were analyzed retrospectively for incidence, cause, and outcome of AKI (AKI Network-stage ≥2). Results: The study population comprised 681 neurocritically ill patients from a mixed neurosurgical and neurological intensive care unit. The prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) was 8.4% (57/681). Overall incidence of AKI was 11.6% with 36 (45.6%) patients developing dialysis-requiring AKI. Sepsis was the main cause of AKI in nearly 50% of patients. Acute kidney injury and renal replacement therapy are independent predictors of worse outcome (hazard ratio [HR]: 3.704; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.867-7.350; P < .001; and HR: 2.848; CI: 1.301-6.325; P = .009). Chronic kidney disease was the strongest independent risk factor (odds ratio: 12.473; CI: 5.944-26.172; P < .001), whereas surgical intervention or contrast agents were not associated with AKI. Conclusions: Acute kidney injury in neurocritical care has a high incidence and is a crucial risk factor for mortality independently of the underlying neurocritical condition. Sepsis is the main cause of AKI in this setting. Therefore, careful prevention of infectious complications and considering CKD in treatment decisions may lower the incidence of AKI and hereby improve outcome in neurocritical care.

This study aims to evaluate the risk factors and the association of acute kidney injury with treatments, complications, outcomes, and resource utilization in patients hospitalized for heat stroke in the United States. Hospitalized patients from years 2003 to 2014 with a primary diagnosis of heat stroke were identified in the National Inpatient Sample dataset. End stage kidney disease patients were excluded. The occurrence of acute kidney injury during hospitalization was identified using the hospital diagnosis code. The associations between acute kidney injury and clinical characteristics, in-hospital treatments, outcomes, and resource utilization were assessed using multivariable analyses. A total of 3346 hospital admissions were included in the analysis. Acute kidney injury occurred in 1206 (36%) admissions, of which 49 (1.5%) required dialysis. The risk factors for acute kidney injury included age 20–39 years, African American race, obesity, chronic kidney disease, congestive heart failure, and rhabdomyolysis, whereas age <20 or ≥60 years were associated with lower risk of acute kidney injury. The need for mechanical ventilation and blood transfusion was higher when acute kidney injury occurred. Acute kidney injury was associated with electrolyte and acid-base derangements, sepsis, acute myocardial infarction, ventricular arrhythmia or cardiac arrest, respiratory, circulatory, liver, neurological, hematological failure, and in-hospital mortality. Length of hospital stay and hospitalization cost were higher in acute kidney injury patients. Approximately one third of heat stroke patients developed acute kidney injury during hospitalization. Acute kidney injury was associated with several complications, and higher mortality and resource utilization.

AIM: To evaluate risk factors and prevalence of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) in the early period after isolated coronary artery bypass graft (CABG).PATIENTS AND METHODS:The study included 830 patients with  isolated CABG. All surgeries were performed in 2016. To evaluate  kidney function in preoperative period glomerular filtration rate  (GFR) was estimated by Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology  Collaboration (CKD-EPI) formula. AKI was diagnosed according to  KDIGO criteria. Patients were stratified into two groups according to  estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR).RESULTS:The prevalence of AKI in patients group without CKD after CABG was 11,5% (n=59), in CKD-AKI group – 12,3% (n=39).  In patients with CKD and after intraoperative inotropic/vasopressor  therapy use of only 2 medicinal drugs of this group the probability of  AKI development increases 11,16 times (OR 11,46; 95% CI 3,47- 37,83; р<0,01). During complete bypass (CB) when haematocrit  decreases on 1% AKI probability increases on 12,36% (OR 0,89; 95% CI 0,81-0,98; р=0,02). The necessity of haemodialisys,  duration of stay in intensive care unit and hospitalization duration  were equal to all groups. AKI-CKD development significantly increases intrahospital mortality (p<0,05). CONCLUSIONS: History of CKD increases probability of severe AKI and also mortality in early postoperative period. Revealed risk factors for AKI development are potentially modifiable.
