Studies in a conscious, nonuremic dog model suggest that use of dialysate hyponatric to plasma tends to cause hypotension during dialytic ultrafiltration by accelerating the rate of contraction of plasma volume. No adverse effect of hyponatric dialysate on total peripheral resistance response could be demonstrated.

Acute heart failure is associated with high hospitalization and mortality rates. A strong, independent risk factor for mortality in patients with heart failure is acute kidney injury, and the condition caused by this connection between disturbances in heart function and proper kidney functioning is cardiorenal syndrome (CRS). This case report discusses the role of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) in the management of a CRS case with septic shock due to pneumonia.

Podocytes are specialized cells within the glomerular filtration barrier, which are crucial for maintaining glomerular structural integrity and convective ultrafiltration. Podocytes exhibit a unique arborized morphology with foot processes interfacing by slit diaphragms, ladder-like, multimolecular sieves, which provide size and charge selectivity for ultrafiltration and transmembrane signaling. Podocyte dysfunction, resulting from oxidative stress, dysregulated prosurvival signaling, or structural damage, can drive the development of proteinuria and glomerulosclerosis in hypertensive nephropathy.

Cumulative impact of hypotension during intermittent hemodialysis on kidney recovery in critically ill patients with AKI-D.

Article Synopsis
  • Intermittent hemodialysis (IHD) is frequently used in patients with acute kidney injury requiring dialysis (AKI-D), but concerns about hemodynamic instability during treatment persist.
  • A study analyzed data from 209 AKI-D survivors receiving IHD, finding a 16.8% incidence of intradialytic hypotension (IDH), with 43.1% remaining dialysis-dependent at discharge.
  • The study concluded that experiencing multiple episodes of IDH significantly increases the risk of dialysis dependence, indicating that managing hypotension during IHD is crucial for kidney recovery.

Purpose: Net ultrafiltration (UF) during continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) can control fluid balance (FB), but is usually 0 ml·h in patients with vasopressors due to the risk of hemodynamic instability associated with CRRT (HIRRT). We evaluated a UF strategy adjusted by functional hemodynamics to control the FB of patients with vasopressors, compared to the standard of care.

Methods: In this randomized, controlled, open-label, parallel-group, multicenter, proof-of-concept trial, adults receiving vasopressors, CRRT since ≤ 24 h and cardiac output monitoring were randomized (ratio 1:1) to receive during 72 h a UF ≥ 100 ml·h, adjusted using a functional hemodynamic protocol (intervention), or a UF ≤ 25 ml·h (control).
