<str<strong>on</strong>g>ABSTRACTS</str<strong>on</strong>g> FROM 17 TH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON <strong>CRRT</strong>,<br />
SAN DIEGO, FEB 14-17, 2012<br />
Early nephrology c<strong>on</strong>sultati<strong>on</strong> could<br />
result in better outcomes, but daily<br />
presence of the nephrology resident in<br />
the postoperative cardiac intensive care<br />
unit (PC-ICU) and its relati<strong>on</strong>ship with<br />
hard outcomes has not been explored.<br />
Purpose: We assessed the incidence of<br />
AKI, renal recovery, ICU length of stay,<br />
and in-hospital mortality following<br />
cardiac surgery before and after the daily<br />
presence of the nephrology resident as<br />
part of the PC-ICU team. Methods: We<br />
c<strong>on</strong>ducted a retrospective cohort study<br />
of 2 c<strong>on</strong>secutive periods of time in<br />
adults taken to cardiac surgery in a<br />
single-center: <str<strong>on</strong>g>from</str<strong>on</strong>g> March 2009 to<br />
February 2010 (nephrology c<strong>on</strong>sultati<strong>on</strong><br />
by call) and <str<strong>on</strong>g>from</str<strong>on</strong>g> March 2010 to<br />
February 2011 (daily presence). We<br />
excluded patients with chr<strong>on</strong>ic kidney<br />
disease stage V, AKI or renal<br />
replacement therapy (RRT) before<br />
surgery. AKI was defined according to<br />
AKIN and RIFLE classificati<strong>on</strong>s within<br />
7 days since cardiac surgery. We used<br />
multivariable linear and logistic<br />
regressi<strong>on</strong> to adjust for c<strong>on</strong>founding<br />
variables. Results: We included 1096<br />
patients who were taken to cardiac<br />
surgery in the Instituto Naci<strong>on</strong>al de<br />
Cardiología Ignacio Chávez in Mexico<br />
City, 558 in the c<strong>on</strong>sultati<strong>on</strong> period and<br />
538 in the daily-nephrology-presence<br />
period. AKI occurred in 31.9% of<br />
patients in the c<strong>on</strong>sultati<strong>on</strong> group and<br />
28.7% in the daily group (p=0.019); inhospital<br />
mortality was 8.25% and 5.6%<br />
(p=0.082). Adjusting for age, baseline<br />
renal functi<strong>on</strong>, risk scores (Euroscore<br />
and Thakar score), infecti<strong>on</strong>s, and length<br />
of mechanical ventilati<strong>on</strong>, the daily<br />
presence of the nephrology resident was<br />
associated with a lower risk of AKI (OR<br />
0.714 [95% CI 0.520-0.982], p=0.039),<br />
shorter ICU length of stay (Beta -0.095<br />
[95% CI 0.000 to -0.146], p=0.044) and<br />
lower in-hospital mortality (OR 0.469<br />
[95% CI 0.256-0.858], p=0.014). In<br />
those patients who required RRT the<br />
daily nephrology presence was<br />
associated with a lower risk of failure to<br />
recover renal functi<strong>on</strong> (OR 0.023 [95%<br />
CI 0.001-0.384], p=0.009).<br />
C<strong>on</strong>clusi<strong>on</strong>: Daily presence of the<br />
nephrology resident in PC-ICU was<br />
associated with lower risk of AKI, inhospital<br />
mortality and seems to promote<br />
renal recovery in patients requiring RRT.<br />
The present model of attenti<strong>on</strong> is a<br />
proposal with potential benefits in<br />
teaching hospitals.<br />
