Abstract
Plasma viscosity (PV) is a key factor in microcirculatory flow resistance and capillary perfusion during hemodilution, we hypothesized a possible relationship between cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI) and PV. We conducted a prospective, observational, single-center study on 50 adult cardiac surgery patients with cardiopulmonary bypass (age 64 years, male sex 80%, baseline serum creatinine 1.04 mg/dL). We assessed perioperative characteristics, management, short-term outcomes, blood analysis, PV, serum creatinine, and diuresis. CSA-AKI was identified using KDIGO criteria. Data were collected at 10 time points during the first perioperative week. CSA-AKI occurred in 17 patients (34%): 12 (24%) stage 1, 1 (2%) stage 2, and 4 (8%) stage 3. Most patients (88%) developed CSA-AKI within 48 h post-surgery. Patients with CSA-AKI had higher body mass index (BMI), more frequent chronic kidney disease (CKD), and lower hemoglobin and hematocrit levels. The median baseline PV for the entire cohort was 1.50 cP on EDTA and 1.37 cP on citrate. No significant differences in PV levels were found between patients with CSA-AKI and normal kidney function, both at baseline and at the 48-h. Logistic and Cox regression analyses showed no significant relationship between PV and CSA-AKI. However, CSA-AKI was related to increased BMI, lower hemoglobin and hematocrit levels, and pre-existing CKD. The present study found no significant association between PV and CSA-AKI. Nevertheless, more research is needed to validate this finding and to investigate the role of PV in other clinical settings.

Incidence and peri-operative risk factors for development of acute kidney injury in patients after cardiac surgery: A prospective observational study. World J Clin Cases 2023; 11:3791-3801. [PMID: 37383133 PMCID: PMC10294155 DOI: 10.12998/wjcc.v11.i16.3791] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2023] [Revised: 03/28/2023] [Accepted: 05/04/2023] [Indexed: 06/02/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) after cardiac surgery develop acute kidney injury (AKI) immediately post-operation. We hypothesized that AKI occurs mainly due to perioperative risk factors and may affect outcome.
AIM To assess peri-operative risk factors for AKI post cardiac surgery and its relationship with clinical outcome.
METHODS This was an observational single center, tertiary care setting study, which enrolled 206 consecutive patients, admitted to ICU after cardiac surgery. Patients were followed-up until ICU discharge or death, in order to determine the incidence of AKI, perioperative risk factors for AKI and its association with outcome. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to assess predictor variables for AKI development.
RESULTS After ICU admission, 55 patients (26.7%) developed AKI within 48 h. From the logistic regression analysis performed, high EuroScore II (OR: 1.18; 95%CI: 1.06-1.31, P = 0.003), white blood cells (WBC) pre-operatively (OR: 1.0; 95%CI: 1.0-1.0, P = 0.002) and history of chronic kidney disease (OR: 2.82; 95%CI: 1.195-6.65, P = 0.018) emerged as independent predictors of AKI among univariate predictors. AKI that developed AKI had longer duration of mechanical ventilation [1113 (777–2195) vs 714 (511–1020) min, P = 0.0001] and ICU length of stay [70 (28–129) vs 26 (21–51) h, P = 0.0001], higher rate of ICU-acquired weakness (16.4% vs 5.3%, P = 0.015), reintubation (10.9% vs 1.3%, P = 0.005), dialysis (7% vs 0%, P = 0.005), delirium (36.4% vs 23.8%, P = 0.001) and mortality (3.6% vs 0.7%, P = 0.046).
CONCLUSION Patients present frequently with AKI after cardiac surgery. EuroScore II, WBC count and chronic kidney disease are independent predictors of AKI development. The occurrence of AKI is associated with poor outcome.

Abstract
Cardiac surgery associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI) is a common complication of cardiac surgery resulting from the patient's exposure to a complex combination of factors in the perioperative period. Current diagnostic criteria for AKI may underestimate the incidence of this complication due to certain specific features of cardiac surgery patients. The introduction of new diagnostic biomarkers of kidney injury into clinical practice has shown the prospective of identifying patients in the early stages of CSA-AKI development. Accurate and timely identification of patients at high risk of developing CSA-AKI can also allow performing comprehensive interventions to prevent it. When diagnosed, CSA-AKI management limited to symptomatic treatment.

Abstract
The incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) post-cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) can cause an increase in the rate of renal replacement therapy (RRT) and mortality rate. Compared to brain and liver damage post-CPB, AKI has the highest incidence of 83%. Based on this phenomenon, various efforts have been made to reduce the incidence of AKI post-CPB, both pharmacologically and non-pharmacologically interventions. The purpose of this review is to emphasize several renal protector agents which under optimal conditions can provide significant benefits in reducing the incidence of AKI post-CPB. This article was obtained by conducting a study on several kinds of literature, including the original article, RCT study, systematic review and meta-analysis, and other review articles. There are five renal protector agents that are the focus of this article, those are fenoldopam which effectively works to prevent the incidence of AKI post-CPB, while furosemide has shown satisfactory results in patients with decreased renal function when administered in the Renal Guard (RG) system, mannitol, and nitric oxide, both of these can also effectively reduce the incidence of AKI post‐CPB by controlling its blood concentration and timing of administration, and another form of N-Acetylcysteine, namely N‐Acetylcysteine amide has better activity as a renoprotective agent than N‐Acetylcysteine itself. The benefits of these agents can be obtained by developing devices that can control drug levels in the blood and create optimal conditions for drugs during the use of a CPB machine.

Abstract
Objective: This paper aimed to investigate the incidence and risk factors of postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) in adult patients undergoing redo cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), and explore the impact of AKI on early outcomes. Methods: A total of 116 patients undergoing redo cardiac surgery with CPB between November 2017 and May 2021 were included. Patients were divided into two groups, AKI group and non-AKI group, according to the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes criteria. Perioperative variables were retrospectively collected and analyzed. Risk factors for the development of AKI were investigated by univariate and multiple logistic regression models. Clinical outcomes were also compared between the groups. Results: Postoperative AKI occurred in 63 patients (54.3%), among whom renal replacement therapy was required in 12 patients (19.0%). The mechanical ventilation time (AKI: 43.00 (19.00, 72.00) hours; non-AKI: 18.00 (15.00, 20.00) hours; p < 0.001), ICU length of stay (AKI: 4.00 (2.00, 6.00) days; non-AKI: 3.00 (2.00, 4.00) days; p = 0.010), hospital length of stay since operation (AKI: 12.00 (8.00, 18.00) days; non-AKI: 9.00 (7.00, 12.50) days; p = 0.024), dialysis (AKI: 12.00 (19.05%); non-AKI: 0 (0%); p = 0.001), reintubation (AKI: 7.00 (11.11%); non-AKI: 0 (0%); p = 0.035), and hospital mortality (AKI: 8.00 (12.70%); non-AKI: 0 (0%); p = 0.020) were all higher in the AKI group than in the non-AKI group. Multivariate analysis revealed that high aspartate aminotransferase (OR, 1.028, 95% CI, 1.003 to 1.053, p = 0.025), coronary angiogram within 2 weeks before surgery (OR, 3.209, 95% CI, 1.307 to 7.878, p = 0.011) and CPB time (OR, 1.012, 95% CI, 1.005 to 1.019, p = 0.001) were independent risk factors for postoperative AKI. Conclusions: High aspartate aminotransferase, coronary angiogram within 2 weeks before surgery and CPB time seem to be associated with an increased incidence of postoperative AKI in patients with redo cardiac surgery.

Risk Factors for Acute Kidney Injury Following Cardiac Surgery and Performance of Leicester Score in a Spanish Cohort. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11040904. [PMID: 35207177 PMCID: PMC8876028 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11040904] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2021] [Revised: 01/29/2022] [Accepted: 02/03/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
The incidence of acute kidney injury following cardiac surgery (CSA-AKI) is up to 30%, and it places patients at an increased risk of death. The Leicester score (LS) is a new score that predicts CSA-AKI of any stage with better discrimination compared to previous scores. The aim of this study was to identify risk factors for CSA-AKI and to assess the performance of LS. A unicentric retrospective study of patients that required cardiac surgery with cardio-pulmonary bypass (CPB) in 2015 was performed. The inclusion criteria were patients over 18 years old who were operated on for cardiac surgery (valve substitution (VS), Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG), or a combination of both procedures and requiring CPB). CSA-AKI was defined with the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria. In the multivariate analysis, hypertension (odds ratio 1.883), estimated glomerular filtration rate (EGFR) <60 mL/min (2.365), and peripheral vascular disease (4.66) were associated with the outcome. Both discrimination and calibration were better when the LS was used compared to the Cleveland Clinic Score and Euroscore II, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.721. In conclusion, preoperative hypertension in patients with CKD with or without peripheral vasculopathy can identify patients who are at risk of CSA-AKI. The LS was proven to be a valid score that could be used to identify patients who are at risk and who could benefit from intervention studies.

Abstract
Recent studies have recognized several risk factors for cardiopulmonary bypass- (CPB-) associated acute kidney injury (AKI). However, the lack of early biomarkers for AKI prevents practitioners from intervening in a timely manner. We reviewed the literature with the aim of improving our understanding of the risk factors for CPB-associated AKI, which may increase our ability to prevent or improve this condition. Some novel early biomarkers for AKI have been introduced. In particular, a combinational use of these biomarkers would be helpful to improve clinical outcomes. Furthermore, we discuss several interventions that are aimed at managing CPB-associated AKI, may increase the effect of renal replacement therapy (RRT), and may contribute to preventing CPB-associated AKI. Collectively, the conclusions of this paper are limited by the availability of clinical trial evidence and conflicting definitions of AKI. A guideline is urgently needed for CPB-associated AKI.
