Brief Summary

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a frequent complication that occurs in 15 to 25% of patients after vascular surgery, and up to 40% of patients after cardiac surgery. AKI compromises seriously short and long-term prognosis of critically ill patients. Several AKI risk factors have been identified including a chronic pathology of the patient such as kidney failure or diabetes, acute kidney injury related to hemodynamic disorders during surgery, including cardiopulmonary bypass, or sepsis, and the use of nephrotoxic agents such as some antibiotics, colloids or iodine contrast agents. Avoiding nephrotoxic agents is therefore strongly recommended in ICU patients, to reduce the incidence of AKI, or to reduce its severity.

The aim of this cohort study was to assess whether the use of daptomycin, was associated to a lower incidence of AKI than vancomycin in cardiovascular ICU patients, with similar efficacy.

This is a retrospective observational study with a propensity score adjustment to reduce the bias of selection for a comparative analysis between two antibacterial treatments used in routine care.

Since treatments were not randomized, the investigators used the propensity score method for primary endpoint analysis. For this, the investigators included the covariates potentially related to treatment and outcome in a multivariate logistic model explaining the choice of treatment. This propensity score was used in the second model as an adjustment covariate included in the multivariate analysis to determine factors independently associated with the primary endpoint (AKI within 7 days).

The main hypothesis is the first line antibiotic treatment with daptomycin leads to less nephrotoxicity than vancomycin in a population known at high risk for AKI and with at least a similar efficacy on clinical success rate.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Incidence of Acute Kidney Injury (AKI)7 days after the treatment initiation

AKI stade 1, 2 or 3 according to KDIGO definition with baseline creatinine given by the last creatinine value before the start of treatment

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Duration of RRTThrough study completion limited to ICU stay, an average of 2 weeks

Number of days between the first RRT initiation and the end of the last RRT during the ICU stay (excluding RRT performed in a dialysis center for chronic renal failure)

Incidence of clinical treatment failure15 days after the end of treatment

defined by either persistent positive cultures, worsening of clinical status, death due to initial infection, or relapse after the end of treatment. It was assessed in case of documented GPC infection

Maximal decrease of glomerular filtration rate (GFR)Through study treatment completion, an average of 2 weeks

Decrease of GFR, estimated by CKD-EPI formula, from baseline as measured by all serum creatinine determinations during treatment

Incidence of renal replacement therapy (RRT)Through study treatment completion, an average of 2 weeks

RRT initiated between the first and the last treatment administrations

Incidence of premature discontinuation of treatmentThrough study treatment completion, an average of 2 weeks

defined as a treatment stopped because of adverse event or clinical failure except death

Incidence of severe renal failureThrough study treatment completion, an average of 2 weeks

AKI stade 2 or 3 according to KDIGO definition or decrease of GFR more than 50% from baseline

Mortality6 months (180 days) after treatment initiation

all cause mortality
