Abstract Introduction The study objective was to investigate whether a Ringer’s acetate based priming solution with addition of Mannitol and sodium concentrate increases the risk of cardiac surgery associated kidney..
Read MoreAbstract Objectives Previous studies in other settings suggested that urine output (UO) might affect NephroCheck predictive value. We investigated the correlation between NephroCheck and UO in cardiac surgery patients. Design..
Read MoreAbstract Background Various factors can cause vascular endothelial damage during cardiovascular surgery (CVS) with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), which has been suggested to be associated with postoperative complications. However, few studies..
Read MoreAbstract Introduction Postoperative complications pose significant challenges in cardiac surgery and with the evolution of selenium as a potential anti-inflammatory agent, some studies reported its inefficiency. Thus, we conducted our..
Read MoreAbstract Background The relationship between venous congestion in cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and acute kidney injury (AKI) in cardiac surgery has not utterly substantiated. This study aimed at investigate the relationship..
Read MoreAbstract Background Up to 42% of patients develop acute kidney injury (AKI) after cardiac surgery. The aim of this study was to describe the relationship between preoperative microcirculatory function and..
Read MoreAbstract OBJECTIVES: Cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CS-AKI) is associated with adverse outcomes. Single-center studies suggest that the prevalence of CS-AKI is high after the Norwood procedure, or stage 1..
Read MoreAbstract Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is a common technique in cardiac surgery but is associated with acute kidney injury (AKI), which carries considerable morbidity and mortality. In this review, we explore..
Read MoreAbstract Introduction Transfusion may increase the risk of organ failure through immunomodulatory effects. The primary objective of this study was to assess for patient or transfusion-related factors that are independently..
Read MoreAbstract Background Cardiac surgery–associated (AKI) is associated with increased postoperative morbidity and mortality. Evidence suggests an association between perioperative administration and decreased incidence of postoperative AKI in cardiac surgery patients; however, an effect..
Read MoreAbstract Introduction Evidence supports the role of oxygen delivery (DO2) in ameliorating acute kidney injury (AKI). While instrumentation for continuous DO2 measurement exists, a simplified method has been reported for targeting..
Read MoreAbstract Introduction: Intraoperative ultrafiltration (UF) is a procedure used during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) to reduce haemodilution and prevent excessive blood transfusion. However, the effect of UF volume on acute kidney injury..
Read MoreAbstract BACKGROUND: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication after cardiac surgery and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. However, no specific treatment options are available, emphasizing the..
Read MoreAbstract Acute kidney injury (AKI) after cardiac surgery is a common complication that can lead to death. We previously reported that the creatinine reduction ratio (CRR) serves as a useful..
Read MoreAbstract Background Children undergoing cardiac surgery are at risk for acute kidney injury (AKI) and cardiac dysfunction. Opportunity exists in protecting end organ function with remote ischemic preconditioning. We hypothesize..
Read MoreAbstract Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common and serious complication after the repair of Type A acute aortic dissection (TA-AAD). However, previous models have failed to account for the..
Read MoreAbstract Background: Early detection of acute kidney injury (AKI) is crucial for timely intervention and improved patient outcomes after cardiac surgery. This study aimed to evaluate the potential of urinary..
Read MoreAbstract Background As patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) progress to a higher stage, the risk for poor outcomes dramatically rises. Early identification of patients at high risk for AKI..
Read MoreAbstract Background Modifiable and non-modifiable factors contribute to development and progression of acute kidney injury (AKI) during cardiac surgery. We hypothesized that, the difference between preoperative mean arterial pressure (MAP)..
Read MoreAbstract Background: Coronary artery disease is a condition characterized by atherosclerosis and inflammation in the vessel wall. In patient undergoing surgery, a systemic inflammatory-like condition occurs in the postoperative period..
Read MoreAbstract Background This study examines the role of extracorporeal life support flow in the development of acute kidney injury in cardiogenic shock. Methods We performed a retrospective analysis of 465..
Read MoreAbstract Purpose of review Patients undergoing cardiac surgery are at high risk to develop cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CS-AKI) postoperatively. CS-AKI is associated with an increased risk for persistent..
Read MoreAbstract Introduction: According to different authors, cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI) incidence can be as high as 20–50%. This complication increases postoperative morbidity and mortality and impairs long-term kidney..
Read MoreAbstract Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery is associated with poor outcomes. The objective of this study was to apply a new machine learning..
Read MoreAbstract Introduction: According to different authors, cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI) incidence can be as high as 20–50%. This complication increases postoperative morbidity and mortality and impairs long-term kidney..
Read MoreAbstract Introduction: Nowadays, many cardiac surgery teams are adopting the goal-directed perfusion (GDP) strategy in their practice to maintain optimal perfusion during cardiac surgeries and improve patient outcomes. Furthermore, it plays..
Read MoreAbstract Background Prediction of cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CS-AKI) in pediatric patients is crucial to improve outcomes and guide clinical decision-making. This study aimed to develop a supervised machine..
Read MoreAbstract Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between intra-abdominal pressure (IAP), renal perfusion indices, and postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) in cardiac patients. Methods: In a prospective cohort..
Read MoreAbstract Cardiac Surgery-Associated Acute Kidney Injury (CSA-AKI) is a serious complication seen in approximately 20–30% of cardiac surgery patients. The underlying pathophysiology is complex, often involving both patient- and procedure..
Read MoreAbstract Objective after cardiac surgery increases morbidity and mortality. Diagnosis relies on or increased serum creatinine, which develop 48 to 72 hours after injury. We hypothesized machine learning incorporating preoperative, operative, and data..
