1 TREATMENT STRATEGIES FOR AKI AFTER CPB (FENOLDOPAM, EARLY PD) STEFANO PICCA and ZACCARIA RICCI Dialysis Unit- Dept of Nephrology and Urology CICU- Dept of Cardiology, “Bambino Gesù” Pediatric Research Hospital ROMA, Italy OUTLINE In post- heart surgery AKI, which is (are?) the time window (windows?) suitable for a worthy intervention? Peritoneal Dialysis in pediatric post-heart surgery AKI • Does PD provide inflammation mediators removal? • Does PD provide suitable fluid removal? Fenoldopam in pediatric post-heart surgery AKI • Does Fenoldopam provide “nephroprotection” ? • What Fenoldopam dosages are required to induce “nephroprotection”? TIME WINDOWS FOR AKI MANAGEMENT Fluids Drugs Nephroprotection? Diuretics RRT Modified from Sutton, 2002 • 61 children/2262 CPB heart surgery operations underwent PD (2.7%) • Time from end of surgery to PD start: 2 hrs - 15 days (median 24 hrs) • 48/61 (79%) did not survive PD AFTER HEART SURGERY IN CHILDREN: FLUID BALANCE AND SURVIVAL THROUGH THE YEARS author n Time to PD start Pts with negative fluid balance Survivors Lowrie (2000) 17 NA 35% 24% Fleming (1995) 21 2.5 days (1-6) after surgery 36% 38% Golej (2002) 116 NA, but 43% of pts started on PD when CVP>10 mmHg 53% 47% Werner (1996) 23 2.6±0.6 days 100% 53% Santos (2012) 23 4.8±16.8 hrs 100% 56.6% Chien (2009) 7 1.2±0.4 days after AKI onset NA 57% Dittrich (1999) 27 In the OR or first hrs in ICU 100% 73% Sorof (1999) 20 22 hrs 100% 80% • • • • PD in 146 neonates and infants after surgery “early” PD: at the end of surgery or day after surgery Significant better survival at 30 and 90 days with early PD Unfortunately, no fluid overload measurement Bojan, Kidney Int, 2012 FENOLDOPAM AND NEPHROPROTECTION: MECHANISM FENOLDOPAM MESYLATE Short-acting selective DA1 dopaminergic receptor agonist M Ranucci Minerva Anestesiol 2010 Z Ricci Interact CardioVasc Thorac Surg 2008 INDUCES: • Increased cAMP-PKA production in renal arteries smooth muscle: arterial relaxation and increased renal blood flow • Increased cAMP concentration in tubular cells and inhibition of Na-H and Na-K ATPase: increased natriuresis • Decreased aldosterone production: increased natriuresis PCCM 2006 Fenoldopam in newborn patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass: controlled clinical trial Ricci Z et al.
