UNLABELLED: The therapeutic efficacy of intravenous immuneglobulin (IVIG) on children with septic shock remains uncertain. Therefore, we endeavored to investigate the impact of administering intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) on patient with septic shock. We retrospectively analyzed the data of children admitted to the PICU due to septic shock from January 2017 to December 2021 in a tertiary pediatric hospital. The main outcome was in-hospital mortality...

Hyperammonemia is a life-threatening condition mainly due to the neurotoxicity of ammonia. Ammonia scavengers may be insufficient, and extracorporeal treatment may be required. Continuous treatments are preferred, and a high-dose continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) must be prescribed to ensure a fast ammonia depletion. Many of the children with hyperammonemia are newborns, with lower blood volume than older children. The majority of the CRRT systems are adult-based, with large extracorporeal priming volumes and inadequate UF control...

Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is a commonly used therapeutic modality in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) for the treatment of severe acute kidney injury, as well as for addressing metabolic abnormalities, fluid-electrolyte imbalances, and acid-base disorders. According to reports, therapeutic hypothermia treatment has demonstrated the ability to decrease cellular metabolism, oxygen consumption, formation of free radicals, cell death, and inflammatory signals. The study encompassed all individuals who underwent CRRT at both Manisa City Hospital and Manisa Celal Bayar University Hospital throughout the period from February 2021 to November 2022...

INTRODUCTION: Shiga-toxin associated-hemolytic uremic syndrome (STEC-HUS) is a severe cause of acute kidney injury (AKI) in children. Although most children recover, about 5% die and 30% develop chronic renal morbidity. HUS pathophysiology includes activated neutrophils damaging vascular endothelial cells. Therapeutic immunomodulation of activated neutrophils may alter the progression of disease. We present 3 pediatric patients treated with the selective cytopheretic device (SCD). METHODS: We describe a 12 y...

INTRODUCTION: Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is used for the symptomatic management of acute kidney injury (AKI) and fluid overload (FO). Contemporary reports on pediatric CRRT are small and single center in design. Large international studies evaluating CRRT practice and outcomes are lacking. Herein, we describe the design of a multinational collaborative. METHODS: The Worldwide Exploration of Renal Replacement Outcomes Collaborative in Kidney Disease (WE-ROCK) is an international collaborative of pediatric specialists whose mission is to improve short- and long-term outcomes of children treated with CRRT...

Introduction : Post-ICU admission cumulative positive fluid balance (PFB) is associated with increased mortality among critically ill patients. We sought to test whether this risk varied across biomarker-based risk strata upon adjusting for illness severity, presence of severe acute kidney injury (AKI), and use of renal replacement therapy (CRRT) in pediatric septic shock. Design : Ongoing multi-center prospective observational cohort. Setting : Thirteen pediatric ICUs in the United States (2003-2023). Patients : Six hundred and eighty-one children with septic shock...

BACKGROUND: Sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI) is associated with high morbidity, with no current therapies available beyond continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). Systemic inflammation and endothelial dysfunction are key drivers of SA-AKI. We sought to measure differences between endothelial dysfunction markers among children with and without SA-AKI, test whether this association varied across inflammatory biomarker-based risk strata, and develop prediction models to identify those at highest risk of SA-AKI...

Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) in neonates and children has recently been used to treat hyperammonemia and metabolic disorders. However, CRRT introduction in low-birth-weight neonates is still a challenge due to vascular access limitations, bleeding complications, and a lack of neonatal-specific devices. We present the case of a low-birth-weight neonate whose severe coagulopathy due to CRRT introduction with a red cell concentration-primed circuit was alleviated by priming the new circuit with blood from the current circuit...

BACKGROUND: Acute kidney injury (AKI) in critically ill children is associated with increased risk for short- and long-term adverse outcomes. Currently, there is no systematic follow-up for children who develop AKI in intensive care unit (ICU). OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to assess variation regarding management, perceived importance, and follow-up of AKI in the ICU setting within and between healthcare professional (HCP) groups.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a commonly encountered comorbidity in critically ill children. The coexistence of AKI disturbs drug pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, leading to clinically significant consequences. This can complicate an already critical clinical scenario by causing potential underdosing or overdosing giving way to possible therapeutic failures and adverse reactions. Current available studies offer little guidance to help maneuver such complex dosing regimens and decision-making in pediatric patients as most of them are done on heterogeneous groups of adult populations...

UNLABELLED: Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT) machines are used off-label in patients less than 20 kg. Infant and neonates-dedicated CRRT machines are making their way into current practice, but these machines are available only in select centres. This study assesses the safety and efficacy of CRRT using adult CRRT machines in children ≤ 10 kg and to determines the factors affecting the circuit life in these children.

Though initially believed to primarily be a respiratory pathogen, the SARS-CoV-2 virus has manifested as a virus that has the potential to affect multiple organ systems causing a wide variety of disease and symptomatology. Children have been largely spared in comparison to adult morbidity and mortality; however, acute pediatric illness secondary to COVID-19 infection has become both more common and more serious. Here, we present a teenager with acute COVID-19 who presented to the hospital with profound weakness and oliguria and was discovered to have severe rhabdomyolysis causing life-threatening hyperkalemia and acute kidney injury...

We conducted a survey of pediatric nephrologists to examine the knowledge and current practices of and identify challenges in the nutritional management of critically ill children during continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). Although it is known that there is a significant effect on nutrition during CRRT, there seems to be a lack of knowledge as well as variability in the practices of nutritional management in these patients, as indicated by our survey results. The heterogeneity of our survey results highlights the need to establish clinical practice guidelines and develop consensus around optimal nutritional management in pediatric patients requiring CRRT...
