Abstract: Objective:To retrospectively observe short and longterm prognosis and risk factors of severe posttraumatic acute kidney injury (AKI) patients receiving continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT).
Methodology:A retrospective analysis of 77 adult patients with severe posttraumatic AKI receiving CRRT from January 2014 to December 2019 was conducted. The deadline for followup is December 2020. 28day and 90day mortality of patients and their risk factors were analyzed, as well as recovery of renal function.
Results:Of the 77 patients enrolled, all patients had severe trauma, with acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ(APACHE Ⅱ) score of 179±62, injury severity score(ISS) of 25(18,36). 66(883%) of them requiring mechanical ventilation, 62 (805%) requiring vasoactive drugs, and 44 (571%) suffered sepsis. Renal injury was mainly in the AKI stage 3 (57 cases,74%), the remaining 11 cases (143%) in the AKI stage 2 and 9 cases (117%) in the AKI stage 1. The median interval between occurrence of AKI and start of CRRT was 6 (15, 125) days. The dose of CRRT was 364±078 L/h, and the cumulative treatment time of CRRT was 126(655,3118)h. The 28day hospitalized mortality rate was 247%(19 cases). Blood phosphorus level at the beginning of CRRT is an independent risk factor for 28day death (HR=0137, 95%CI 0038-0491, P=0002). The cutoff value of blood phosphorus predicting patients 28day death was 10 mmol/L. The survival rates of serum phosphorus>10 and≤10 mmol/L were 872% and 556% respectively (P=001). The 90day hospitalized mortality rate was 545%(42 cases), total bilirubin was an independent risk factor for 90day death(HR=1007, 95%CI 1002~1011, P=0003).The cutoff value of total bilirubin predicting patients 90day death is 1416 μmol/L. None of the patients with total bilirubin>1416 μmol/L survived. Among the 35 surviving patients, renal function recovered in 28 patients, 5 cases progressed to chronic renal insufficiency, 1 case required maintenance hemodialysis.
Conclusion:Posttraumatic AKI patients receiving CRRT are in critical condition and have a high mortality rate. Serum phosphate levels and total bilirubin levels at initiation of CRRT are independent risk factors for 28day and 90day death, some patients will progress to chronic kidney disease.
