Background
Acute kidney injury (AKI) on patients with acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) remained unknown, and little is known about the differences between community-acquired AKI (CA-AKI) and hospital-acquired AKI (HA-AKI) in patients with AECOPD. Thus, we compared prevalence, risk factors, and outcomes for these patients with CA-AKI and HA-AKI.
Methods
Between January 2014 and January 2017, data from adult inpatients with AECOPD were analyzed retrospectively. In all, 1768 patients were included.
Results
Prevalence of CA-AKI was 15.8% and that of HA-AKI was 5.5%, giving an overall AKI prevalence of 21.3%. Comparing with patients without AKI, patients with AKI were more likely to require mechanical ventilation (38.7% versus 19.1%; P < 0.001), non-invasive mechanical ventilation (20.4% versus 16.0%; P = 0.044), invasive mechanical ventilation (18.3% versus 3.1%; P < 0.001), and intensive care unit (ICU) admission (33.7% versus 12.9%; P < 0.001). Patients with AKI had a longer duration of ICU stay (9 days versus 8 days; P = 0.033), a longer hospitalization (13 days versus 10 days; P < 0.001), and a higher inpatient mortality (18.0% versus 2.7%; P < 0.001). Patients with CA-AKI had a higher prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and lower prevalence of chronic cor pulmonale than patients with HA-AKI. Risk factors for developing HA-AKI and CA-AKI were similar: being elderly, requirement for mechanical ventilation and a history of coronary artery disease and CKD. Patients with HA-AKI were more likely to have stage-3 AKI and worse short-outcomes. In comparison with CA-AKI, patients with HA-AKI were more likely to require non-invasive mechanical ventilation (31.3% versus 16.8%; P = 0.003), and had a longer duration of mechanical ventilation (11 days versus 8 days; P = 0.020), longer hospitalization (14 days versus 12 days; P = 0.038), and higher inpatient mortality (32.0% versus 13.2%; P < 0.001). Those with HA-AKI had worse (multivariate-adjusted) inpatient survival than patients with CA-AKI (hazard ratio, 1.7 [95% CI, 1.03–2.81; P = 0.038] for the HA-AKI).
Conclusion
AKI was common in patients with AECOPD requiring hospitalization, and had a worse prognosis. CA-AKI was more common than HA-AKI but otherwise demonstrated similar demographics and risk factors. Nevertheless, patients with HA-AKI had worse short-term outcomes.
