Abstract Background The association of central venous pressure (CVP) and mortality and acute kidney injury (AKI) in critically ill adult patients remains unclear. We performed a meta-analysis to determine whether elevated CVP is associated with increased mortality and AKI in critically ill adult patients. Methods We searched PubMed and Embase through June 2019 to identify studies that investigated the association between CVP and mortality and/or AKI in critically ill adult patients admitted into the intensive care unit. We calculated the summary odds ratio (OR) and 95% CI using a random-effects model. Results Fifteen cohort studies with a broad spectrum of critically ill patients (mainly sepsis) were included. On a dichotomous scale, elevated CVP was associated with an increased risk of mortality (3 studies; 969 participants; OR, 1.65; 95% CI, 1.19–2.29) and AKI (2 studies; 689 participants; OR, 2.09; 95% CI, 1.39–3.14). On a continuous scale, higher CVP was associated with greater risk of mortality (5 studies; 7837 participants; OR, 1.10; 95% CI, 1.03–1.17) and AKI (6 studies; 5446 participants; OR, 1.14; 95% CI, 1.06–1.23). Furthermore, per 1 mmHg increase in CVP increased the odds of AKI by 6% (4 studies; 5150 participants; OR, 1.06; 95% CI, 1.01–1.12). Further analyses restricted to patients with sepsis showed consistent results. Conclusions Elevated CVP is associated with an increased risk of mortality and AKI in critically ill adult patients admitted into the intensive care unit. Trial registration PROSPERO, CRD42019126381 |
