Development and Validation of a Prediction Model for Acute Kidney Injury Among Patients With Acute Decompensated Heart Failure
FRONTIERS IN CARDIOVASCULAR MEDICINE(2021)
Abstract
Background: Acute kidney injury is an adverse event that carries significant morbidity among patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF). We planned to develop a parsimonious model that is simple enough to use in clinical practice to predict the risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) occurrence.Methods: Six hundred and fifty patients with ADHF were enrolled in this study. Data for each patient were collected from medical records. We took three different approaches of variable selection to derive four multivariable logistic regression model. We selected six candidate predictors that led to a relatively stable outcome in different models to derive the final prediction model. The prediction model was verified through the use of the C-Statistics and calibration curve.Results: Acute kidney injury occurred in 42.8% of the patients. Advanced age, diabetes, previous renal dysfunction, high baseline creatinine, high B-type natriuretic peptide, and hypoalbuminemia were the strongest predictors for AKI. The prediction model showed moderate discrimination C-Statistics: 0.766 (95% CI, 0.729-0.803) and good identical calibration.Conclusion: In this study, we developed a prediction model and nomogram to estimate the risk of AKI among patients with ADHF. It may help clinical physicians detect AKI and manage it promptly.
