Renal outcomes of dialysis-dependent acute kidney injury in noncritically ill patients: A retrospective study

Blood Purification Jul 31, 2021

Esposito P, Avella A, Ferrari F, et al. - Researchers undertook this retrospective analysis to assess renal outcomes among noncritically ill patients who needed acute hemodialysis (HD) due to an acute kidney injury (AKI) episode occurring during hospitalization. Study population comprised 63 hemodynamically stable patients with AKI receiving acute intermittent HD. A significant risk of dialysis dependence was observed in relation to factors such as baseline chronic kidney disease (CKD), previous AKI episodes, and parenchymal causes of AKI. At 1-month control, acute kidney disease (AKD) stage 0 developed in 15 patients (39%), AKD stage 1 in 6 patients (16%), and AKD stage 2–3 in 17 patients (44%). At 3-month control, CKD was evident in 29 out of 38 patients recovering from AKI (76%). Findings indicate that a risk for the development of chronic kidney damage might be conferred by AKI, even in noncritically ill patients.
