BACKGROUND
Gastric dilatation volvulus (GDV) can lead to organ failure including acute kidney injury (AKI). Due to its cytoprotective, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, lidocaine has a potential to prevent AKI in dogs with GDV.
DESIGN AND SETTING
Prospective, observational cohort study in client-owned dogs with GDV.
OBJECTIVE
To determine concentrations of renal biomarkers for AKI in dogs with GDV with and without intravenous (IV) lidocaine therapy.
METHODS
Thirty-two dogs were randomized to receive either IV lidocaine (2 mg/kg, followed by a lidocaine constant rate infusion at a dose of 50 μg/kg/min over 24 h; n = 17) or no lidocaine (n = 15). Blood and urine samples were taken at admission (T 0) (only blood), during or immediately after surgery (T 1), and 24 (T 24) and 48 (T 48) h after surgery. Plasma creatinine (pCr), plasma neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (pNGAL), urinary NGAL (uNGAL), uNGAL to creatinine ratio (UNCR), and urinary gamma-glutamyl transferase to creatinine ratio (uGGT/uCr) were evaluated. Biomarker concentrations were compared between dogs with and without IV lidocaine and the course of each marker was determined in comparison to its admission value.
RESULTS
In the entire population, a significantly higher pCr at T 0 (median, 95 μmol/L, interquartile range, 82-105) compared with T 1 (69 μmol/L, 60-78), T 24 (63 μmol/L, 52-78), and T 48 (78 μmol/L, 65-87) (P < 0.001) was found. Plasma NGAL increased significantly between T 0 (5.66 ng/mL, 3.58-7.43) and T 24 (7.50 ng/mL, 4.01-11.89) (P = 0.006) and T 48 (9.86 ng/mL, 5.52-13.92) (P < 0.001), respectively. Urinary NGAL increased significantly between T 1 (0.61 ng/mL, 0.30-2.59) and T 24 (2.62 ng/mL, 1.86-10.92) (P = 0.001) and T 48 (4.79 ng/mL, 1.96-34.97 (P < 0.001), respectively. UNCR increased significantly between T 1 (0.15 μg/mmol, 0.09-0.54) and T 24 (1.14 μg/mmol, 0.41-3.58) (P = 0.0015) and T 48 (1.34 μg/mmol, 0.30-7.42) (P < 0.001), respectively. Concentrations of uGGT/uCr increased significantly from T 0 highest at T 24 (6.20 U/mmol, 3.90-9.90) and significantly decreased at T 48 (3.76 U/mmol, 2.84-6.22) (P < 0.001). No significant differences in any renal biomarker concentration were found between dogs with and without IV lidocaine therapy.
CONCLUSION AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE
Plasma NGAL, uNGAL and UNCR remained increased up to 48 h post-surgery. No evidence of lidocaine-associated renoprotection was found.
