Abstract
Background: Limited data existed on the burden of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) renal complications and the outcomes of the most critical patients who required kidney replacement therapy (KRT) during intensive care unit (ICU) stay. We aimed to describe mortality and renal function at 90 days in patients admitted for COVID-19 and KRT.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study of critically ill patients admitted for COVID-19 and requiring KRT from March 2020 to January 2022 was conducted in an Italian ICU from a tertiary care hospital. Primary outcome was mortality at 90 days and secondary outcome was kidney function at 90 days.
Results: A cohort of 45 patients was analyzed. Mortality was 60% during ICU stay and increased from 64% at the time of hospital discharge to 71% at 90 days. Among 90-day survivors, 31% required dialysis, 38% recovered incompletely, and 31% completely recovered renal function. The probability of being alive and dialysis-free at 3 months was 22%.
Conclusions: Critically ill patients with COVID-19 disease requiring KRT during ICU stay had elevated mortality rate at 90 days, with low probability of being alive and dialysis-free at 3 months. However, a non-negligible number of patients completely recovered renal function.
