Objective: To investigate the organ protective effect of early continuous HVHF in patients with MODS complicated by AKI.
Methods: 117 patients requested HVHF in ICU due to MODS/AKI were enrolled from June 2006 to June 2011 for clinical data collection. The patients were categorized, by RIFLE scale (R-risk of renal dysfunction, I-injury to the kidney, F-failure of kidney, L-loss of kidney function, E-end stage kidney disease), into three groups: RIFLE-R (n = 15), RIFLE-I (n = 23) and RIFLE-F (n = 79). The values of their serum creatinine (SCr), oxygenation index (PaO(2) /FiO(2) ), extravascular lung water index (EVLWI), blood lactic acid (Lac), prothrombin time (PT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II (APACHE II) score were recorded, at the beginning of, and within 72 hours after HVHF. The 90-day survival rate in each group was calculated.
Results: No significant difference was found between RIFLE-R and RIFLE-I group, within 72 hours after HVHF, in SCr, PaO(2) /FiO(2) , EVLWI, Lac, PT, AST, or APACHE II score. The mean values of SCr, EVLWI, Lac, PT, AST, APACHE II score, within 72 hours after HVHF in the RIFLE-F group were significantly higher in comparison with RIFLE-R, and RIFLE-I group [SCr (μmol/L): 260.50±35.51 vs. 83.61±21.07, 89.71±23.81 ; EVLWI (ml/kg): 12.18±2.11 vs. 10.94±1.50,10.76±1.92; Lac (mmol/L): 2.40±0.56 vs. 1.58±0.27, 1.68±0.35; PT (sec): 14.14±1.50 vs. 12.67±1.18, 12.51±0.94; AST (U/L): 96.19±18. 84 vs. 47.91±12.85, 56.39±13.44; APACHE II score: 20.17±2.61 vs. 17.79±2.65, 18.53±2.87, P< 0.05 or P< 0.01]; However, the PaO(2) /FiO(2) (mm Hg, 1 mm Hg = 0.133 kPa) value in RIFLE-F group was found significantly lower compared to RIFLE-R and RIFLE-I group (202.80±19.07 vs. 245.24±21.18, 250.63±25.56, P< 0.01). No statistical significant difference was found in the 90-day survival rate among RIFLE-R, RIFLE-I and RIFLE-F group (66.67%, 65.22%, 63.29%, respectively, P> 0.05).
Conclusion: Early HVHF has protective effect against organs injury in patients with MODS and AKI.

Purpose: This study investigates the nephrotoxicity and efficacy assessment of polymyxin B (PMB) use in renal transplant patients.
Patients And Methods: This retrospective study included adult (>18 years of age) renal transplant patients who received PMB intravenous drip for more than 72 hours. Efficacy assessment of PMB included clinical treatment efficacy, microbiological efficacy at the end of PMB treatment, and in-hospital all-cause mortality.

Introduction: Acute kidney injury (AKI) constitutes a common complication after severe trauma. Our objective was to analyse the associated risk factors and outcomes of AKI in a large, multicentre sample of trauma ICU patients.
Materials And Methods: Observational, prospective and multicentre nationwide registry (RETRAUCI).

Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is the most common cause of organ dysfunction in intensive care unit (ICU) patients. There is no consensus definition of AKI in ICU patients. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the incidence rate, risk factors and clinical outcome of AKI using the RIFLE (Risk, Injury, Failure, Loss of kidney function, and End-stage kidney disease) classification in ICU patients.

Background: As more patients are surviving the initial effects of traumatic injury clinicians are faced with managing the systemic complications of severe tissue injury. Of these, acute kidney injury (AKI) may be a sentinel complication contributing to adverse outcomes.
Objective: To establish the incidence of AKI in patients admitted to critical care after major trauma, to explore any risk factors and to evaluate the association of AKI with outcomes.

Background: The RIFLE classification is widely used to assess the severity of acute kidney injury (AKI), but its application to geriatric AKI patients complicated by medical problems has not been reported.
Methods: We investigated 256 geriatric patients (≥65 years old; mean age, 74.4 ± 6.
