Title: Characteristics and prognosis of patients with systemic ANCAassociated vasculitides (granulomatosis with polyangiitis, microscopic polyangiitis and eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis) treated in intensive care units

Abstract:

Systemic vasculitides are a group of various diseases where immune-mediated inflammation of the blood vessel wall leads to organ dysfunction. The aim of the research was to characterize patients with systemic vasculitides who required treatment in intensive care units, to analyze the therapeutic methods used, to compare them to patients with other autoimmune diseases, and to determine the prognosis based on longer observation. The presented studies were observational and retrospective. They were conducted on patients from the Polish population. In the first part of the study, medical records of one intensive care unit were analyzed. In the second part of the study, analyzes were performed based on the Polish registry of patients with ANCA-vasculitides – POLVAS registry. Demographic, clinical and comparative analyzes were performed. Patients' survival during treatment and in the longer follow-up was assessed. In patients with systemic vasculitides treated in the intensive care units, the respiratory system, kidneys and nervous system are most commonly involved. Vasculitis patients are admitted to the ICU in a more severe general condition than other patients with autoimmune diseases and more often require specialized treatment such as mechanical ventilation or renal replacement therapy. Admission to the intensive care unit worsens the prognosis of AAV patients.
