Management of Patients with Renal Failure on Cardiopulmonary Bypass

Abstract Renal failure presents a significant challenge in patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), as they are at high risk for acute kidney injury (AKI), electrolyte imbalances, and fluid overload. The..

Risk Prediction Models for Renal Function Decline After Cardiac Surgery Within Different Preoperative Glomerular Filtration Rate Strata

Abstract Background Our goal was to create a simple risk‐prediction model for renal function decline after cardiac surgery to help focus renal follow‐up efforts on patients most likely to benefit...

Metabolomics profiling for diagnosis of acute renal failure after cardiopulmonary bypass

Abstract Rationale Acute renal failure (ARF) is one of the most serious complications of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) surgery. Serum creatinine level is a key compound examined to understand whether renal..

End-stage Renal Disease and Long-term Survival Among Survivors of Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation.

Abstract We aimed to investigate the prevalence and associated factors of newly diagnosed end-stage renal disease (ESRD) requiring renal-replacement therapy (RRT) among survivors of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and determine..

Predictors for acute and chronic renal failure and survival in patients supported with veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

Abstract Background: Renal failure is a common occurrence in patients with refractory cardiogenic shock including those supported with veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Prevalence and outcome of acute and chronic kidney..

Development of a practical prediction score for chronic kidney disease after cardiac surgery

Abstract Background Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a frequent and serious complication of cardiac surgery. This study was designed to establish a scoring system, calculated in the immediate postoperative period,..

Urinary hypoxia: an intraoperative marker of risk of cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury

Abstract Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common after cardiac surgery and profoundly affects postoperative mortality and morbidity. There are no validated methods to assess risk of AKI intraoperatively. Methods..
