The study revealed that patients with chronic kidney disease discharged from hospitalization for sepsis are at higher risks of subsequent renal adverse events compared to non-sepsis group.
BackgroundSepsis is known to cause renal function fluctuations during hospitalization, but whether these patients discharged from sepsis were still at greater risks of long-term renal adverse outcomes remains unknown. MethodsFrom 2011 to 2018, we included 1,12,628 patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) aged >= 20 years. The patients with CKD were further divided into 11,661 sepsis group and 1,00,967 non-sepsis group. The following outcome of interest was included: all-cause mortality, readmission for acute kidney injury, estimated glomerular filtration rate decline >= 50% or doubling of serum creatinine, and end-stage renal disease. ResultsAfter propensity score matching, the sepsis group was at higher risks of all-cause mortality [hazard ratio (HR) 1.39, 95% CI, 1.31-1.47], readmission for acute kidney injury (HR 1.67, 95% CI 1.58-1.76), eGFR decline >= 50% or doubling of serum creatinine (HR 3.34, 95% CI 2.78-4.01), and end-stage renal disease (HR 1.43, 95% CI 1.34-1.53) than non-sepsis group. ConclusionsOur study found that patients with CKD discharged from hospitalization for sepsis have higher risks of subsequent renal adverse events.
