Background: The clinical significance of early-onset acute kidney injury (EO-AKI) and recovery in severe COVID-19 intensive care unit (ICU) patients is poorly documented.
Objective: The aim of the study was to assess the epidemiology and outcome of EO-AKI and recovery in ICU patients admitted for SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia.
Design: This was a retrospective single-centre study.
Setting: The study was carried out at the medical ICU of the university hospital of Clermont-Ferrand, France.
Patients: All consecutive adult patients aged ≥18 years admitted between 20 March 2020 and 31 August 2021 for SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia were enrolled. Patients with chronic kidney disease, referred from another ICU, and with an ICU length of stay (LOS) ≤72 h were excluded.
Interventions: EO-AKI was defined on the basis of serum creatinine levels according to the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes criteria, developing ≤7 days. Depending on renal recovery, defined by the normalization of serum creatinine levels, EO-AKI was transient (recovery within 48 h), persistent (recovery between 3 and 7 days) or AKD (no recovery within 7 days after EO-AKI onset).
Measurements: Uni- and multivariate analyses were performed to determine factors associated with EO-AKI and EO-AKI recovery.
Main Results: EO-AKI occurred in 84/266 (31.5%) study patients, of whom 42 (50%), 17 (20.2%) and 25 (29.7%) had EO-AKI stages 1, 2 and 3, respectively. EO-AKI was classified as transient, persistent and AKD in 40 (47.6%), 15 (17.8%) and 29 (34.6%) patients, respectively. The 90-day mortality was 87/244 (35.6%) and increased with EO-AKI occurrence and severity: no EO-AKI, 38/168 (22.6%); EO-AKI stage 1, 22/39 (56.4%); stage 2, 9/15 (60%); and stage 3, 18/22 (81.8%) ( < 0.01). The 90-day mortality in patients with transient or persistent AKI and AKD was 20/36 (55.6%), 8/14 (57.1%) and 21/26 (80.8%), respectively ( < 0.01). MAKE-90 occurred in 42.6% of all patients.
Conclusions: In ICU patients admitted for SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia, the development of EO-AKI and time to recovery beyond day 7 of onset were associated with poor outcome.

Background: The present study evaluated the diagnostic and prognostic value of biomarkers, including soluble forms of the receptor for advanced glycation end-products (s-RAGE), soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (SuPAR), and others, for the occurrence of early-onset acute kidney injury (EO-AKI), EO-AKI non-recovery, day-90 major adverse kidney events (MAKE-90), and day-90 mortality in critically ill patients with Coronavirus Disease-19 (Covid-19).
Methods: A single-center, prospective study was conducted at the University Hospital of Clermont-Ferrand, France, between March 2020 and February 2021. The study included adult patients suffering from severe pneumonia caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, who were admitted to the hospital's intensive care unit.
