MODS Diagnosis and Resolution Criteria in Patients with TA-TMA
Organ System | MODS Diagnosis | MODS Resolution |
---|---|---|
Renal | ≥50% reduction of cystC GFR from pre-HSCT value after TA-TMA diagnosis | CystC GFR of 70 mg/mL or a ≥50% increase of cystC GFR from the lowest value during diagnosis of TA-TMA |
Pulmonary | Any need for positive-pressure ventilation (noninvasive or invasive) for ≥24 hr with a PaO2/FiO2 ratio <300 or an SpO2/FiO2 ratio <264 | Resolution of positive-pressure ventilation (noninvasive or invasive), resolution of oxygen requirements |
Cardiovascular | Pulmonary hypertension diagnosed by cardiologist using cardiac catheterization or pulmonary hypertension criteria on echo (right ventricular pressure ≥50% of systemic pressure, ventricular septal flattening, right ventricular dysfunction) | Resolution of pulmonary hypertension (may remain on anti-pulmonary hypertension medications) |
Serositis | Clinically significant serositis necessitating medical or surgical therapy | No evidence of clinically serositis requiring medical or surgical therapy |
Hypertension (severe) | Hypertension necessitating continuous antihypertensive medication infusion for ≥12 hr | Hypertension control at <99th percentile for age on no more than 2 medications (not including diuretics) |
CNS | Neurologic symptoms, mental status changes attributable to the TA-TMA process, or seizures attributable to posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome | No neurologic symptoms, may remain on antiseizure medications; residual radiologic signs acceptable without clinical symptomatology |
GI | GI bleeding and/or intestinal strictures necessitating medical or surgical intervention | No active GI bleeding, no evidence of unresolved intestinal strictures (history of surgical stricture correction is acceptable) |
