Abstract:
Objective To investigate the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) post-orthotopic liver transplant (OLT) and its association with prognosis. Methods Data of 28 patients received single OLT in our hospital from 2004 to 2006 were retrospectively analyzed. The incidence of AKI was investigated by new acute kidney injury network (AKIN) criteria. The follow-up was over one year. The prognosis of AKI patients at day 28 and 1 year was evaluated by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. The association between AKI and prognosis was examined. Results A total of 193 patients were enrolled. The average age was (48.07±10.02) years old. The ratio of male to female was 4:1. One hundred and sixteen (60.1%) patients of post-OLT AKI were found, whose AKI stage 1, 2 and 3 were 50.0%, 21.6% and 28.4% respectively. Ten (8.6%) patients required renal replacement therapy (RRT) after OLT. In AKI post-OLT patients, day 28 and 1 year mortality were significantly higher than those in non-AKI patients (15.5% vs 0, 25.9% vs 3.9%, respectively, both P<0.05). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed the 1-year survival rates of AKI stage 1, 2, 3 post-OLT and non-AKl were 84.0%, 81.0%, 42.4% and 90.9%, respectively. The 1-year survival rate of non-AKI was significantly higher than that of AKI stage 1, 2, 3. The 1-year survival rate of AKI stage 3 was significantly lower than that of stage 1 and 2. There was no significant difference between AKI stage 1 and 2. Sct at 1 year post-OLT was significantly higher than that of baseline [(88.35±37.15) vs (73.70±33.88) μmol/L, P<0.05). The change of Scr value at 1 year compared to baseline in AKI patients was similar to non-AKI patients. However such change in AKI stage 2 and 3 was higher than that in stage 1. Conclusions The incidence of AKI post-OLT is quite high and associated to the poor prognosis in short and long periods. Renal function may decrease gradually which is associated to the AKI stage pest-OLTI.
