Abstract

Objective

To investigate the risk factors associated with oliguria and death in obstetric patients with acute kidney injury (AKI).

Methods

The study group included all obstetric patients with AKI, under dialytic treatment, in Hospital Geral César Cals, Fortaleza, Brazil, from January 2000 to December 2006. AKI were classified according to the RIFLE criteria. Univariate and multivariate analysis were performed to investigate the factors associated with oliguria and death.

Results

A total of 55 patients were included. Their average age was 26.2 ± 6.7 years. The main etiologies of AKI were pregnancy-related hypertension (41.8%), HELLP syndrome (40%), puerperal sepsis (14.5%), abruption placentae (9.1%), hemolytic uremic syndrome (9.1%) and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (5.5%). Oliguria was observed in 36 cases (65%). Death occurred in 17 cases (30.9%). Factors associated with oliguria were, diagnosis of HELLP syndrome, hyperbilirubinemia and death. Factors associated with death were, presence of puerperal sepsis, hyperbilirubinemia, hypotension, oliguria and low levels of HCO3.

Conclusion

AKI is a rare but potential fatal complication in obstetric patients. RIFLE criteria seem to have association with mortality. There are important factors associated with oliguria and death, which must be prompt recognized to the institution of adequate therapeutic measures.

Ambulantisierung: Erste Erfahrungen mit dem Hybrid-DRG

02.05.2024 DCK 2024 Kongressbericht

Die Hybrid-DRG-Verordnung soll dazu führen, dass mehr chirurgische Eingriffe ambulant durchgeführt werden, wie es in anderen Ländern schon länger üblich ist. Die gleiche Vergütung im ambulanten und stationären Sektor hatten Niedergelassene schon lange gefordert. Aber die Umsetzung bereitet ihnen doch Kopfzerbrechen.

Sind Frauen die fähigeren Ärzte?

Patienten, die von Ärztinnen behandelt werden, dürfen offenbar auf bessere Therapieergebnisse hoffen als Patienten von Ärzten. Besonders gilt das offenbar für weibliche Kranke, wie eine Studie zeigt.

Harninkontinenz: Netz-Op. erfordert über lange Zeit intensive Nachsorge

30.04.2024 Harninkontinenz Nachrichten

Frauen mit Belastungsinkontinenz oder Organprolaps sind nach einer Netz-Operation keineswegs beschwerdefrei. Vielmehr scheint die Krankheitslast weiterhin hoch zu sein, sogar höher als von harninkontinenten Frauen, die sich nicht haben operieren lassen.
