Abstract

Background: This study aimed to evaluate the risk factors and the association of acute kidney injury (AKI) with outcomes, and resource utilization in patients hospitalized due to salicylate intoxication in the United States. Methods: Hospitalized patients with a primary diagnosis of salicylate intoxication from 2003 to 2014 were identified in the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) database. End-stage kidney disease patients were excluded. The occurrence of AKI was identified using hospital diagnosis code. Clinical characteristics, in-hospital treatment, outcomes and resource utilization were compared between patients with and without AKI. Results: A total of 13,787 eligible hospital admissions were included in the analysis. AKI occurred in 1,279 (9.3%) admissions. Older age, male sex, more recent year of hospitalization, anemia, hypertension, congestive heart failure, chronic kidney disease, volume depletion, sepsis, and ventricular arrhythmia/cardiac arrest were significantly associated with increased risk of AKI, whereas Hispanic race was associated with decreased risk. AKI was significantly associated with increased risk of organ failure, and in-hospital mortality. In addition, the need for ventilation support, blood component transfusion, renal replacement therapy, length of hospital stay, and hospitalization cost were higher in AKI patients. Conclusion: Approximately one tenth of salicylate intoxication patients developed AKI during hospitalization. AKI was associated with higher morbidity, mortality, and resource utilizations.
