Overview
All patients with capillary leak syndrome have an elevated hematocrit concentration during an attack, resulting in hemoconcentration. Moreover, elevated WBCs, elevated BUN, elevated creatinine, elevated creatine kinase and hypoalbuminemia without albuminuria may also be seen.
Laboratory Findings
Capillary leak syndrome presents with the following lab abnormalities:
- Hemoconcentration (Increased hemoglobin and hematocrit)
- Elevated WBCs
- Elevated Blood urea nitrogen (BUN)
- Elevated creatinine
- Elevated creatine kinase
- Hypoalbuminemia without albuminuria[1][2]
- Blood and urine cultures to rule out sepsis
- Serum tryptase to rule out anaphylaxis
- Serum immunofixation electrophoresis to determine the presence of paraprotein
- IgG kappa supports the diagnosis of systemic capillary leak syndrome[3]
| Grade | Prognosis | Treatment | Hemoconcentration | Hypoalbuminemia |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1a | Good | Oral fluids | Hgb ≤ 3 g/dL | Albumin ≤ 0.5 g/dL |
| 1b | Good | Oral fluids | Hgb ≥ 3 g/dL | Albumin ≥ 0.5 g/dL |
| 2 | Variable | IV fluids, no hospitalization | ||
| 3 | Poor | IV fluids, ICU | ||
| 4 | Fatal | ICU |
