Healthcare-associated infections caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates are increasing and few effective antibiotics currently available to treat patients. We observed decreased carbapenem susceptibility among K. isolated from patients at a tertiary private hospital that showed phenotype compatible with carbapenemase production although this group of enzymes was not detected in any sample. The aim study describe the epidemiology clinical outcomes associated carbapenem-resistant determine...
<b><i>Background:</i></b> Critically ill patients with COVID-19 may develop multiple organ dysfunction syndrome, including acute kidney injury (AKI). We report the incidence, risk factors, associations, and outcomes of AKI renal replacement therapy (RRT) in critically patients. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> performed a retrospective cohort study adult diagnosis admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) between March 2020 May 2020. Multivariable logistic...
Abstract The use of regional citrate anticoagulation (RCA) in liver failure (LF) patients can lead to accumulation. We aimed evaluate serum levels and correlate them with function markers the Cat/Cai under intensive care undergoing continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration (CVVHDF-RCA). A prospective cohort study an unit was conducted. compared survival, clinical, laboratorial dialysis data between without LF. Citrate measured daily. evaluated 200 patients, 62 (31%) significantly higher LF...
Background/Aims: Continuous renal replacement therapies (CRRT) are initially employed in patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) ICU setting. After the period of serious illness, hemodialysis is usually used as a mode transition from CRRT. Intermittent hemodiafiltration (HDF) not commonly applied this scenario. Objectives: To evaluate feasibility using HDF therapy after CVVHDF critically AKI. Methods: An observational and prospective pilot study was conducted dialysis-requiring Patients were...
