Hyperglycemia and kidney outcomes in critically ill children and young adults on continuous kidney replacement therapy.

ABSTRACT:

Background

There are limited studies evaluating hyperglycemia in children treated with continuous kidney replacement therapy (CKRT). We evaluated the association of hyperglycemia with kidney outcomes in critically ill children treated with CKRT for acute kidney injury (AKI) or fluid overload.

Methods

Secondary analysis of the multicenter retrospective observational Worldwide Exploration of Renal Replacement Outcomes Collaborative in Kidney Disease (WE-ROCK) study (34 centers, 9 countries). Primary exposure was hyperglycemia on days 0-7 of CKRT (average serum glucose of ≥ 150 mg/dL). Average serum glucose < 150 mg/dL was defined as euglycemic. We stratified the hyperglycemic group with cut-offs ≥ 180 mg/dL, ≥ 200 mg/dL, or ≥ 250 mg/dL. The primary outcome was MAKE-90 (death b
