Popis: Interactions between lung and kidney can significantly affect the course of acute diseases, a phenomenon that was first observed in the 1950s by describing pulmonary dysfunction in uremic patients. From animal experiments there is ample evidence for remote lung injury following acute kidney injury (AKI), with an increased risk for the development of pulmonary edema and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Coincident ARDS and AKI are associated with higher rates of intubation and mechanical ventilation, significantly prolonged weaning from mechanical ventilation and increased mortality. On the other hand, acute lung diseases and mechanical ventilation can promote the development of AKI and are associated with increased mortality when AKI is also present. These bidirectional interactions may include hemodynamic adverse effects during mechanical ventilation or volume overload as well as the release or decreased clearance and metabolism of proinflammatory mediators (e.g., interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α), which may induce and aggravate distant organ injury. The aim of this work is to examine the interactions between lung and the kidney in critically ill patients, as well as discuss potential preventive approaches.
