BIA Versus Physician Adjustment in Acute Kidney Injury Patients Requiring Renal Replacement Therapy

This study was designed to compare the efficacy of BIA and physician adjustment to prevent intradialytic hypotension in patients with acute kidney injury who received renal replacement therapy. The investigators randomized 9 patients with acute kidney injury and volume overloaded who underwent acute hemodialysis for 45 sessions in Vajira hospital between October 2017 and February 2018. In physician adjust-group (control) estimate by physical examination and fluid balance record. Primary outcome was intradialytic hypotensive episode and secondary outcome was hemodialysis-related adverse events and other clinical outcome.

About this study

Background

Volume overload and intradialytic hypotension are significant complications with increasing mortality rate in hemodialysis patients. Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) has been used to estimate the optimum weight in chronic hemodialysis patient to prevent intradialytic hypotension.Volume assessment in acute kidney injury is also of great importance , however, there are currently few methods to obtain an accurate assessment of hydration status in this scenario. This study was designed to compare the efficacy of BIA and physician adjustment to prevent intradialytic hypotension in patients with acute kidney injury who received renal replacement therapy.

Methods

The investigators randomized 9 patients with acute kidney injury and volume overloaded who underwent acute hemodialysis for 45 sessions in Vajira hospital between October 2017 and February 2018. Volume overload was defined by BIA with value more than>0.4. In physician adjust-group (control) estimate by physical examination and fluid balance record. Primary outcome was intradialytic hypotensive episode and secondary outcome was hemodialysis-related adverse events and other clinical outcome.

Treatment and study plan

Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis

Device

We use Inbody S20 analysis to measure fluid status before each hemodialysis session to guide fluid removal.

Physician-guided

Procedure

This intervention used physical examination as guided to adjust fluid therapy together with the chart record of intake and output per day

Other names: Fluid balance record

Primary outcomes

  1. Change in blood pressure during dialysis

    Time frame: During hemodialysis session start from enrollment until study completion, up to 4 hours

    Blood pressure less than 20 mmHg from baseline ( systolic blood pressure)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Cardiac problem

    Time frame: Measure through study completion,for at least 3 months after randomization

    Number of patients that have palpitation,cardiac arrthymia or chest pain

  2. Hospital length of stay

    Time frame: Up to 3 months after enrollment

    Total days in admission

  3. Percent of renal function

    Time frame: at least 3 months after enrollment

    eGFR
