Recovery after AKI: Effects on outcomes over 15 years.
Journal of Critical Care 2023 Februrary 27
PURPOSE: To examine the effect of kidney recovery on mortality, dialysis and kidney transplantation up to 15 years after AKI.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: We studied 29,726 survivors of critical illness and compared these outcomes stratified by AKI and recovery status at hospital discharge. Kidney recovery was defined as a return of serum creatinine to ≤150% of baseline without dialysis prior to hospital discharge.
RESULTS: Overall AKI occurred in 59.2% in which two thirds developed stage 2-3 AKI. Recovery rate of AKI at hospital discharge was 80.8%. Patients who did not recover experienced the worst 15-year mortality compared to those who recovered and those without AKI (57.8% vs 45.2% vs 30.3%, p < 0.001). This pattern was also found in subgroups of patients with suspected sepsis-associated (57.1% vs 47.9% vs 36.5%, p < 0.001) and cardiac surgery-associated AKI (60.1% vs 41.8% vs 25.9%, p < 0.001). The rates of dialysis and transplantation at 15 years were low and not associated with recovery status.
CONCLUSIONS: Recovery of AKI in critically ill patients at hospital discharge had an effect on long-term mortality for up to 15 years. These results have implications for acute care, follow-up and choice of endpoints for clinical trials.
