Abstrakt: Introduction The systemic acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) has been associated with acute kidney injury (AKI). We retrospectively studied the incidence and outcome of AKI in patients hospitalized with COVID-19 at King Abdulaziz Medical City (KAMC) Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Methods A retrospective cohort study was conducted after ethical approval from the institutional review board of King Abdullah International Medical Research Center (KAIMRC). Subjects were identified by Data Management Office of KAIMRC. The data were extracted from electronic medical records using a customized data collection sheet. The study included all adult patients (>18 years) who tested positive for COVID-19 by polymerase chain reaction and were admitted at KAMC from March 2020 until the end of September 2020. Patients with a history of end-stage kidney diseases and patients where adequate data were not available to establish diagnosis of AKI were excluded. Patient demographics, comorbid conditions, medications, use of mechanical ventilation, and 30-day mortality were recorded. Results During the study period (01 March 2020 to 30 September 2020) 1293 patients were hospitalized at KAMC with the diagnosis of COVID-19. After excluding the patients who met the exclusion criteria, data were collected for 1025 patients [male 582 (56.8%); female 443 (43.2%)]. On univariate analysis, increasing age, male gender, use of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers, diuretics, and vasopressors, presence of chronic kidney disease, coronary artery disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, dyslipidemia, diabetes mellitus, heart failure, and hypertension, kidney transplant status, and mechanical ventilation were associated with development of AKI. On multivariate logistic regression analysis, independent predictors of AKI were restricted to increasing age, presence of chronic kidney disease, hypertension, kidney transplant status, use of vasopressors, and mechanical ventilation. For patients who developed AKI, 30-day mortality was 40.7% compared to 3.7% for those who did not develop AKI (p<0.001). Conclusion For hospitalized patients with COVID-19, we observed an incidence of AKI of 36%. Increasing age, presence of chronic kidney disease and hypertension, kidney transplant status, use of vasopressors, and mechanical ventilation were independently associated with development of AKI. Presence of AKI was associated with higher 30-day mortality (40.7% vs 3.7%).
