Read MoreAbstract Background The purpose of this Neonatal and Pediatric Heart and Renal Outcomes Network study was to describe the and outcomes of cardiac surgery–associated (CS-AKI) after cardiac surgery without (non-CPB). Methods We performed..
Read MoreAbstract Objective To investigate if oxygen delivery index during (DO2I) was more strongly associated with (AKI), the higher the patient's preoperative pulse pressure (PP). Design Retrospective cohort of 1064 patients undergoing cardiac..
Read MoreAbstract Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common and serious complication of cardiac surgery and is associated with increased mortality and morbidity, accompanied by a substantial economic burden. The pathogenesis..
Read MoreAbstract Acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the most common major complications of cardiac surgery, and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Cardiac surgery-associated AKI has a complex,..
Read MoreAbstract Introduction Cardiac surgery associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI) has a number of preoperative and intraoperative risk factors. Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) factors have not yet been elucidated in a single..
Read MoreAbstract Background: Transfusion rates in cardiac surgery are high. Aim: To determine if intraoperative autologous blood removal without volume replacement is associated with fewer homologous blood transfusions without increasing acute kidney injury...
Read MoreAbstract Objectives The objectives of this study were to evaluate the incidence and to identify risk factors for acute kidney injury (AKI) in neonates undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) with a..
Read MoreAbstract Objectives The study objectives were to describe the incidence, risk factors, and outcomes of acute kidney injury after cardiopulmonary bypass in Jamaica. Method We performed a review of the..
Read MoreAbstract We aimed to evaluate the role of higher mean arterial pressure (MAP) during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in preventing development of acute kidney injury (AKI). Methods. We evaluated a population..
Read MoreAbstract Patients receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) often suffer from acute kidney injury (AKI), requiring continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). In our clinical practice, we connected the inlet line of..
Read MoreAbstract Purpose Urine oxygen partial pressure (PuO2) may be useful for assessing acute kidney injury (AKI) risk. The primary purpose of this study was to quantify the ability of a..
Read MoreAbstract Anemia is a risk factor for acute kidney injury (AKI) following cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Whether red blood cell (RBC) transfusion-enhanced hemoglobin levels contribute to low AKI rates remains unclear...
Read MoreAbstract Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a serious complication after cardiac surgery. We derived and internally validated a Machine Learning preoperative model to predict cardiac surgery-associated AKI of any severity and..
Read MoreAbstract Critical illness is often complicated by acute kidney injury (AKI). In patients with severe AKI, renal replacement therapy (RRT) is deployed to address metabolic dysfunction and volume excess until..
Read MoreThis case reports on a 6-year-old boy, who was admitted to the hospital due to prolonged dyskinetic movements resulting in rhabdomyolysis and acute kidney injury [pdf-embedder url="https://perfusfind.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/CoW_33_2022_E-web_compressed.pdf"]
Read MoreAbstract Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common cause of morbidity after congenital heart disease surgery. Progress on diagnosis and therapy remains limited, however, in part due to poor mechanistic..
Read MoreAbstract The objective of this study was to assess the diagnostic value of plasma neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (pNGAL) for the early diagnosis of acute kidney injury (AKI) in adult patients..
Read MoreAbstract Background Cardiac surgery studies have established the clinical relevance of personalised arterial blood pressure management based on cerebral autoregulation. However, variabilities exist in autoregulation evaluation. We compared the association..
Read MoreAbstract Cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CS-AKI) is common and is associated with increased risk for postoperative morbidity and mortality. Our recent survey of the Society of Cardiovascular Anesthesiologists (SCA)..
Read MoreAbstract Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common after cardiac surgery. To date, there are no specific pharmacological therapies. In this review, we summarise the existing evidence for prevention and management..
Read MoreAbstract Objective Acute kidney injury (AKI) following pediatric cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass is a frequently reported complication. This study aims to determine the critical oxygen delivery (DO2i) threshold associated..
Read MoreAbstract Background Gelatin has been used as a plasma volume expander because of its ability to preserve intravascular volume more effectively than crystalloids. However, gelatin may have detrimental effects on..
Read MoreAbstract Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a life-saving therapy utilized for patients with severe life-threatening cardiorespiratory failure. Patients treated with ECMO are among the most severely ill encountered in critical..
Read MoreAbstract Objectives The existing literature has shown conflicting results regarding the association between preoperative statin exposure and the risk of postoperative cardiac surgery–associated (CSA-AKI). Design A single-center retrospective observational study. Setting..
Read MoreAbstract Background In cardiac surgery, the association between hypotension during specific intraoperative phases or vasopressor-inotropes with adverse outcomes remains unclear. This study’s hypothesis was that intraoperative hypotension duration throughout the..
