Abstract Background: Cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is commonly associated with acute kidney injury, and microvascular endothelial inflammation is a potential underlying mechanism. We hypothesized that pro-inflammatory components of..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Background Cardiopulmonary bypass is known to raise the risk of acute kidney injury (AKI). Previous studies have identified numerous risk factors of cardiopulmonary bypass including the possible impact of..

Abstract Background To investigate the impact of the dynamic oxygenation status on the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass. Methods This retrospective study was performed..

Abstract Background  (AKI) is common after cardiac surgery and is difficult to predict. N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is highly predictive for perioperative cardiovascular complications and may also predict renal..

Abstract Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with high morbidity and mortality; therefore, prevention is important. The aim of this study was to systematically assess AKI incidence after cardiac surgery..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract The number of patients using critical care is increasing as our populations live longer thanks to advances in medical therapies. This is reflected by an increase in both usage..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Many patients develop acute kidney injury (AKI) after vascular surgery. In this retrospective observational study, we investigated the risk factors for AKI defined using the Kidney Disease Improving Global..

Abstract Objectives This study was performed to internally derive and then validate risk score systems using preoperative and intraoperative variables to predict the occurrence of any-stage (stage 1, 2, 3)..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Background: Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) may lead to tissue hypoxia, inflammatory response, and risk for acute kidney injury (AKI). We evaluated the prevalence of AKI and inflammatory response in neonates undergoing..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Introduction Low mean arterial pressure (MAP) periods occur frequently during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), and their management remains controversial. Our aim was to correlate MAP during CPB with the occurrence..

Abstract Objective To compare the incidence and severity of acute kidney injury following open heart surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass in children after administration of exogenous nitric oxide. Design Retrospective cohort..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Background and objectives AKI is a common complication after pediatric cardiac surgery and has been associated with higher morbidity and mortality. We aimed to compare the efficacy of available pharmacologic..

Abstract Background: Early identification of patients at risk for cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CS-AKI) based on novel biomarkers and tissue oxygen saturation might enable intervention to reduce kidney injury...

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Background Early identification of patients at risk of AKI after cardiac surgery is of critical importance for optimizing perioperative management and improving outcomes. This study aimed to identify the..

Abstract Our aim was to evaluate biochemical markers in plasma (NGAL, CysC) and urine (NGAL, KIM-1) in children's early onset of acute kidney injury after congenital heart defect surgery using..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Background: The aim of this study was to determine epidemiology and outcomes of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and to assess if age modifies..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract BACKGROUND:  Prospective, single-center trials have shown that the implementation of the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) recommendations in high-risk patients significantly reduced the development of acute kidney injury..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Background: The hypothermic circulatory arrest (HCA) is an indispensable step in the surgical treatment of an acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD), which could greatly affect the postoperative outcome. We..

Abstract     OBJECTIVES Older patients have a higher cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI) related mortality. Low oxygen delivery (DO2) during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is a risk factor for..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Purpose Acute kidney injury (AKI) has been reported to be one of the most common complications in patients receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), yet variations in AKI between different..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a temporary life support system used to assist patients with life-threatening severe cardiac and/or respiratory insufficiency. Patients requiring ECMO can be considered the sickest..

Abstract Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common and serious complication faced by children following ventricular septal defect (VSD) surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). The objective of this study was..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Background: Cardiac surgery–associated acute kidney injury (AKI) is an adverse outcome that increases morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing cardiac surgical procedures. To date, the use of serum creatinine..

Abstract Aim Renal tissue hypoxia during cardiopulmonary bypass could contribute to the pathophysiology of acute kidney injury. We tested whether renal tissue hypoxia can be alleviated during cardiopulmonary bypass by..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common after cardiac surgery requiring cardiopulmonary bypass. Renal hypoxia may precede clinically detectable AKI. We compared the efficacy of two indices of renal..
