Objective To explore the global research status and trends of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) based on knowledge visualization analysis. Methods Based on the Web of Science Core Collection, studies reporting CRRT research that were published between June 2014 and June 2023 were retrieved and collected after manual review. VOSviewer and CiteSpace softwares were used for bibliometric visualization analysis, including publication trends, geographical distribution characteristics, journal distribution characteristics, author contributions, citations, funding source characteristics, and keyword clustering. Results A total of 2708 papers were analyzed, with an increasing trend in the number of articles and citation frequency from 2015 to 2021. The United States was the most prolific country and France was the most influential country. The University of Pittsburgh in the United States had the highest number of publications among research institutions and showed higher motivation for inter-institutional collaboration. The University of Queensland in the Australia had the highest average citation frequency. Professor Rinaldo Bellomo of Australia was the most productive author and Professor Jeffrey Lipman was the most influential. Jason A. Roberts, Jeffrey Lipman and Claudio Ronco were the three authors who had the highest number of collaborations with other authors. Keyword cluster analysis showed that the prognosis of CRRT for renal disease was the focus of research, with hotspots of research being antibiotics, citrate accumulation, plasma replacement, lactate clearance, acute respiratory distress syndrome, and coronavirus disease 2019. Coupling analysis of the literature showed that exploring the indications for CRRT and optimizing treatment prescription were at the forefront of research. Conclusions The present study of CRRT has generally shown an upward trend in the last decade. The management and efficacy of CRRT remains a hot topic of research. Exploring the indications for CRRT and optimizing treatment prescriptions may be a popular research direction and trend in the future.
Rhabdomyolysis-induced acute kidney injury (RIAKI) is a serious clinical disease in intensive care unit, characterized by high mortality and low cure rate. Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is a common form of treatment for RIAKI. There are currently no guidelines to guide the application of CRRT in RIAKI. To solve this problem, this article reviews the advantages and limitations of CRRT in the treatment of RIAKI, as well as new viewpoints and research progress in the selection of treatment timing, treatment mode, treatment dose and filtration membrane, with the aim of providing theoretical guidance for the treatment of CRRT in RIAKI patients.
ObjectiveTo investigate the risk factors of death in patients undergoing continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) after cardiac surgery. MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed records of 66 adult patients without history of chronic renal failure suffering acute kidney injury (AKI) following cardiac surgery and undergoing CRRT in our hospital between July 2007 and June 2014. There were 38 males and 28 females with mean age of 59.11±12.62 years. They were divided into a survival group and a non-survival group according to prognosis at discharge. All perioperative data were collected and analyzed by univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis. ResultsIn sixty-six adult patients, eighteen patients survived with a mortality rate of 72.7%. Through univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression, risk factors of death in the post-operative AKI patients requiring CRRT included hypotension on postoperative day 1 (B=2.897, OR=18.127, P=0.001), duration of oliguria until hemofiltration (B=0.168, OR=1.183, P=0.024), and blood platelet on postoperative day 1 (B=-0.026, OR=0.974, P=0.001). ConclusionHypotension on postoperative day 1 (POD1) is the predominant risk factor of death in patients requiring CRRT after cardiac surgery, while blood platelet on POD1 is a protective factor. If CRRT is required, the sooner the better.
In 2017, the Acute Dialysis Quality Initiative (ADQI) Consensus Group released a series of guidelines on the topic of "Precision Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT)". The updated content in this guideline included four parts: patient selection and timing of CRRT, precision CRRT and solute control, precision fluid management in CRRT, and role of technology for the management of AKI in critically ill patients. This review will interpret the 2017 ADQI guidelines update in detail.
Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is one of the important therapeutic techniques for critically ill patients. In recent years, the field of artificial intelligence has developed rapidly and has been widely applied in manufacturing, automotive, and even daily life. The development and application of artificial intelligence in the medical field are also advancing rapidly, and artificial intelligence radiographic imaging result judgment, pathological result judgment, patient prognosis prediction are gradually being used in clinical practice. The development of artificial intelligence in the field of CRRT has also made rapid progress. Therefore, this article will elaborate on the current application status of artificial intelligence in CRRT, as well as its future prospects in CRRT, so as to provide a reference for understanding the application of artificial intelligence in CRRT.
Objective To estimate the cost of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) in public hospitals and analyze the main influencing factors of the cost, in order to provide evidence for the optimal application of CRRT technology. Methods In March 2021, activity-based costing was used to estimate and analyze the cost of CRRT, the data of which were collected from 5 hospitals in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Henan, Sichuan and Xinjiang, and single factor sensitivity analysis was used to find the main influencing factors of the cost. Results The hourly treatment costs of CRRT in the 5 hospitals ranged from 265.30 to 474.44 yuan, with an average of 376.81 yuan. The costs of manpower and filters accounted for the top two largest proportions, the manpower cost of continuous veno-venous hemofiltration and continuous veno-venous hemodiafiltration accounted for 22.90% and 21.51%, respectively, and the filters cost of the two types of CRRT accounted for 15.07% and 17.73%, respectively. The unit cost and cost composition varied greatly between hospitals. There were four factors affecting the unit cost, namely clinical operation, efficiency, price and patient, among which clinical operation difference was the primary factor leading to cost difference. Conclusions The application cost of CRRT technology varies greatly among hospitals, and there are many factors affecting the cost. Public hospitals face great pressure in cost control. It is necessary to strengthen the internal control operation management of public hospitals, establish CRRT clinical operation standards, and improve the quality of medical services in public hospitals.
Objective To analyze the risk factors for death in children with interruption of aortic arch (IAA) and ventricular septal defect (VSD) after one-stage radical surgery. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on patients with IAA and VSD who underwent one-stage radical treatment in the First Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 2006 to January 2017. Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to analyze the risk factors for death after the surgery. Results A total of 152 children were enrolled, including 70 males and 82 females. Twenty-two patients died with a mean age of 30.73±9.21 d, and the other 130 patients survived with a mean age of 37.62±11.06 d. The Cox analysis showed that younger age (OR=0.551, 95%CI 0.320-0.984, P=0.004), low body weight (OR=0.632, 95%CI 0.313-0.966, P=0.003), large ratio of VSD diameter/aortic root diameter (VSD/AO, OR=2.547, 95%CI 1.095-7.517, P=0.044), long cardiopulmonary bypass time (OR=1.374, 95%CI 1.000-3.227, P=0.038), left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO, OR=3.959, 95%CI 1.123-9.268, P=0.015) were independent risk factors for postoperative death. Conclusion For children with IAA and VSD, younger age, low body weight, large ratio of VSD/AO, long cardiopulmonary bypass time and LVOTO are risk factors for death after one-stage radical surgery.
