Abstract 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..
Read MoreAbstract Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication in cardiac surgery patients, with a reported incidence of 20 to 30%. The development of AKI is associated with worse short-..
Read MoreAbstract Background The association between tissue oxygenation with postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) in adult patients undergoing multiple valve surgery has not been specifically studied. Methods In this prospective exploratory..
Read MoreAbstract Background Cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI) is frequent. While two network meta-analyses assessed the impact of pharmacological interventions to prevent CSA-AKI, none focused on non-pharmacological interventions. We aim..
Read MoreAbstract The impact of blood pressure targets and surgical approach (laparoscopic or open) on continuous urinary oxygenation (PuO2), a validated surrogate of renal medullary PO2, during general surgery, is unclear...
Read MoreAbstract Background: Acute kidney injury after pediatric cardiac surgery is a common complication with few established modifiable risk factors. We sought to characterize whether indexed oxygen delivery during cardiopulmonary bypass..
Read MoreAbstract Vascular endothelial damage may activate hypercoagulation and contribute to the development of acute kidney injury (AKI). This study aimed to investigate whether early alteration in coagulation was associated with..
Read MoreAbstract Objectives (AKI) is increasingly recognized as a source of poor patient outcomes after cardiac surgery. The purpose of the present report is to provide perioperative teams with expert recommendations..
Read MoreAbstract Objective: To investigate the changes and significance of perioperative expression levels of kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1), neutrophil gelatinase-related lipocalin (NGAL), and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in patients with acute kidney injury..
Read MoreAbstract Cardiac surgery on cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is associated with postoperative renal dysfunction, one of the most common complications of this surgical cohort. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with..
Read MoreAbstract Background Postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) in cardiac surgery patients is multifactorial and associated with low oxygen delivery (DO2) during cardiopulmonary bypass. Methods Cardiac surgical patients undergoing full cardiopulmonary..
Read MoreAbstract This article has no abstract. The Society of Thoracic Surgeons requests that this article be cited as: Brown JR, Baker RA, Shore-Lesserson L, et al. The Society of Thoracic..
Read MoreAbstract OBJECTIVES This study aims to improve the early detection of cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury using artificial intelligence-based algorithms. METHODS Data from consecutive patients undergoing cardiac surgery between 2008..
Read MoreAbstract Objective Several human studies have associated nitric oxide administration via the cardiopulmonary bypass circuit with decreased incidence of cardiopulmonary bypass–associated acute kidney injury, but histopathologic and serologic evidence of..
