Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of intraoperative diuretics, such as furosemide or mannitol, during kidney transplantation has been suggested to reduce the rate of delayed graft function (DGF). The evidence base for this is sparse, however, and there is substantial variation in practice. We sought to evaluate whether the use of intraoperative diuretics during kidney transplantation translated into a reduction in DGF. METHODS We conducted a cohort study evaluating the use of furosemide or mannitol given intraoperatively before kidney reperfusion compared with control (no diuretic). Adult patients receiving a kidney transplant for end-stage renal disease were allocated to receive furosemide, mannitol, or no diuretic. The primary outcome was DGF; secondary outcomes were graft function at 30 days and perioperative changes in potassium levels. Descriptive and comparative statistics were used where appropriate. RESULTS A total of 162 patients who received a kidney transplant from a deceased donor (either donation after neurologic determination of death or donation after circulatory death) were included over a 2-year period, with no significant between-group differences. There was no significant difference in DGF rates between the furosemide, mannitol, and control groups. When the furosemide and mannitol groups were pooled (any diuretic use) and compared with the control group, however, there was a significant improvement in the odds that patients would be free of DGF (odds ratio 2.10, 95% confidence interval 1.06-4.16, 26% v. 44%, p = 0.03). There were no significant differences noted in any secondary outcomes. CONCLUSION This study suggests the use of an intraoperative diuretic (furosemide or mannitol) may result in a reduction in DGF in patients undergoing kidney transplantation. Further study in the form of a randomized controlled trial is warranted.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Due to the mechanisms of action of conventional catecholamine vasopressors, there is increased risk of renal allograft injury and adverse events in transplant recipients with fluid-refractory distributive shock during the perioperative period. As such, mechanistically alternative vasopressors like angiotensin II (ATII) may avoid these complications, but there is an absence of data supporting use in this population. METHODS This was a single-center, single-arm, open-label, phase 4 study conducted as a 1-year pilot of 20 adult renal transplant recipients receiving ATII as their first continuous infusion vasopressor in the perioperative period. The study aim was to systematically assess the safety and hemodynamic effects of ATII. Safety was assessed based on the incidence of adverse events. Hemodynamic effect was assessed by the achievement of per protocol hemodynamic goals (i.e., SBP ≥120 mmHg) and the need for adjunct vasopressors. RESULTS Most cases involved deceased donors (70%), with a corresponding mean (SD) cold ischemia time of 14.7 (8.6) h. Over a surgery duration of 5.3 (1.2) h, subjects received 3.2 (2.0) L of total volume resuscitation prior to ATII initiation. No adverse events were directly related to ATII administration. Throughout this period, ATII was utilized for a median of 1.0 (IQR, 1.5) h intraoperatively (N = 7), 26.5 (IQR, 84.8) h postoperatively (N = 4), and 63.8 (IQR, 57.8) h in subjects who required ATII both intra- and postoperatively (N = 9). Only one of the 20 patients needed adjunct continuous infusion vasopressors in addition to ATII. CONCLUSIONS Based on the observations of this pilot study, ATII is a safe and effective vasopressor option for renal transplant recipients requiring perioperative hypotension reversal.

Vasopressin for Post-kidney Transplant Hypotension. Kidney Int Rep 2022; 7:1364-1376. [PMID: 35694563 PMCID: PMC9174042 DOI: 10.1016/j.ekir.2022.03.035] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2021] [Revised: 03/24/2022] [Accepted: 03/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction Hypotension after deceased donor kidney transplant (DDKT) is a risk factor for delayed graft function (DGF) and poor graft survival (GS). We hypothesize that vasopressin use in hypotensive DDKT recipients (DDKTRs) to increase blood pressure (BP) reduces DGF rates and is safe without increasing mortality. Methods Group with vasopressin "study group" (n = 45) was defined as DDKTRs between 2012 and 2017 who required vasopressin for hypotension systolic BP (SBP) <120 mm Hg or diastolic BP (DBP) <60 mm Hg. DDKTRs with no-vasopressin "comparison group" (n = 90) were propensity score-matched DDKTRs between 2012 and 2017 without vasopressin use. Primary outcomes were GS, creatinine and allograft biopsy rate at 1 year, DGF rate, and death during transplant hospitalization. Results Vasopressin group had lower mean maximum and minimum SBP and DBP in the operating room (OR). Median vasopressin start time post-DDKT was 2 hours (interquartile range [IQR] 1-6), and duration of use was 42 hours (IQR 24-63). DGF, creatinine at 1 year, and allograft biopsy rates were comparable. No deaths occurred during transplant hospitalization. Multivariable analysis did not find an effect of vasopressin use on GS. Conclusion Treatment of hypotensive DDKTRs with vasopressin is safe and facilitated similar graft function and survival with that of nonhypotensive patients. In the absence of a randomized control trial, our study supports the safety of vasopressin therapy to prevent the adverse effects of hypotension.

Influence of Intraoperative Hemodynamic Parameters on Outcome in Simultaneous Pancreas-Kidney Transplant Recipients. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11071966. [PMID: 35407575 PMCID: PMC8999645 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11071966] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2022] [Revised: 03/21/2022] [Accepted: 03/28/2022] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Objectives: Adequate organ perfusion, as well as appropriate blood pressure levels at the time of unclamping, is crucial for early and long-term graft function and outcome in simultaneous pancreas−kidney transplantation (SPKT). However, the optimal intraoperative mean arterial pressure (MAP) level has not well been defined. Methods: From a prospectively collected database, the medical data of 105 patients undergoing SPKT at our center were retrospectively analyzed. A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was preliminarily performed for optimal cut-off value for MAP at reperfusion, to predict early pancreatic graft function. Due to these results, we divided the patients according to their MAP values at reperfusion into <91 mmHg (n = 47 patients) and >91 mmHg (n = 58 patients) groups. Clinicopathological characteristics and outcomes, as well as early graft function and long-term survival, were retrospectively analyzed. Results: Donor and recipient characteristics were comparable between both groups. Rates of postoperative complications were significantly higher in the <91 mmHg group than those in the >91 mmHg group (vascular thrombosis of the pancreas: 7 (14%) versus 2 (3%); p = 0.03; pancreatitis/intraabdominal abscess: 10 (21%) versus 4 (7%); p = 0.03; renal delayed graft function (DGF): 11 (23%) versus 5 (9%); p = 0.03; postreperfusion urine output: 106 ± 50 mL versus 195 ± 45 mL; p = 0.04). There were no significant differences in intraoperative volume repletion, central venous pressure (CVP), use of vasoactive inotropic agents, and the metabolic outcome. Five-year pancreas graft survival was significantly higher in the >91 mmHg group (>91 mmHg: 82% versus <91 mmHg: 61%; p < 0.01). No significant differences were observed in patient and kidney graft survival at 5 years between both groups. Multivariate Cox regression analysis affirmed MAP < 91 mmHg as an independent prognostic predictor for renal DGF (HR 3.49, 1.1−10.8, p = 0.03) and pancreas allograft failure (HR 2.26, 1.0−4.8, p = 0.01). Conclusions: A MAP > 91 mmHg at the time point of reperfusion was associated with a reduced rate of postoperative complications, enhancing and recovering long-term graft function and outcome and thus increasing long-term survival in SPKT recipients.

Abstract
Background/aim Available information on the radiological findings of the 2019 novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is constantly updated. Ground glass opacities (GGOs) and consolidation with bilateral and peripheral distribution have been reported as the most common CT findings, but less typical features can also be identified. According to the reported studies, SARS-CoV-2 infection is not limited to the respiratory system, and it can also affect other organs. Renal dysfunction, gastrointestinal complications, liver dysfunction, cardiac manifestations, and neurological abnormalities are among the reported extrapulmonary features. This review aims to provide updated information for radiologists and all clinicians to better understand the radiological manifestations of COVID-19. Materials and methods Radiological findings observed in SARS-CoV-2 virus infections were explored in detail in PubMed and Google Scholar databases. Results The typical pulmonary manifestations of COVID-19 pneumonia were determined as GGOs and accompanying consolidations that primarily involve the periphery of the bilateral lower lobes. The most common extrapulmonary findings were increased resistance to flow in the kidneys, thickening of vascular walls, fatty liver, pancreas, and heart inflammation findings. However, these findings were not specific and significantly overlapped those caused by other viral diseases, and therefore alternative diagnoses should be considered in patients with negative diagnostic tests. Conclusion Radiological imaging plays a supportive role in the care of patients with COVID-19. Both clinicians and radiologists need to know associated pulmonary and extrapulmonary findings and imaging features to help diagnose and manage the possible complications of the disease at an early stage. They should also be familiar with CT findings in patients with COVID-19 since the disease can be incidentally detected during imaging performed with other indications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Machine perfusionfor kidney preservation is a common practice. There is no consensus on the best formula for perfusion solutions. We aimed to discern the additives that organ procurement organizations in the United States include in their perfusate and the impact of these additives on transplant outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS A telephone survey of all 58 organ procurement organizations in the United States regarding additives to their perfusion solutions was conducted. The survey data were merged with transplant recipient outcome data from the United Network for Organ Sharing database.The final analysis included perfused kidneys between January 2014 and March 2019. Logistic regressions were performed to investigate whether a particular perfusion formula was associated with delayed graft function, primary nonfunction, or early graft failure. RESULTS Additives correlated with decreased rates of graft failure were mannitol in all kidneys and kidneys of lower quality (P < .01) and penicillin/ampicillin in all kidneys (P < .05). Additives associated with increased graft failure regardless of type included verapamil in all kidneys (P < .05) and kidneys of lower quality (P < .01) and arginine with glutathione in all kidneys and low-quality kidneys alone (P < .01). CONCLUSIONS Further outcomes research and standardized guidelines for additives in machine perfusion of kidneys across all organ procurement organizations are needed.

Abstract
Minimally invasive approaches for laparoscopic donor nephrectomy are necessary to limit surgical morbidity, and technical challenges differ from those encountered during other laparoscopic renal surgeries. Presented here is a step-by-step guide for laparoscopic donor nephrectomy-focusing on pure laparoscopic and hand-assisted techniques. Both straight laparoscopic and hand-assisted nephrectomies were performed in healthy donors who met transplantation criteria in terms of global health and psychologic well-being. Patient positioning, trocar placement, surgical steps, incision closure, and postoperative care are reviewed. Standard equipment used to complete this procedure is itemized. This guide outlines indications, preoperative preparation, and procedural steps for laparoscopic donor nephrectomy. The techniques and the evolution thereof represent our experience since 2002 for 510 cases. The attached videos demonstrate a high-volume surgeon's typical approach while factoring in anatomical variation. In both cases, the donor nephrectomies were without incident and the patient's postoperative courses were without complication. A basic framework for donor nephrectomy is presented highlighting surgical steps we believe to be essential for graft preservation and ultimately effective transplantation. Although no two cases are the same, systematic approaches will allow for timely case completion, fewer complications, and better donor/recipient outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effect of mannitol usage during kidney donation and kidney transplantation is still unclear. Therefore, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to research the difference in graft function between kidney grafts treated with and without mannitol. METHODS A literature search was performed in 5 databases and included 8 eligible studies out of 3570 references, which were included up to July 12, 2021. Relevant outcomes for analysis were graft survival, rejection, acute renal failure, delayed graft function, renal failure, creatinine clearance, diuresis, and serum creatinine. RESULTS Eight studies were identified, 1 study examining the effect of mannitol during kidney donation and 7 studies during kidney transplantation, of which 6 eligible for meta-analysis. A total of 1143 patients were included in these studies. The following outcome measures demonstrated significant differences in favor of mannitol usage compared with a control group: acute renal failure (risk ratio [RR], 0.45; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.26-0.79; P < .01]) and delayed graft function (RR, 0.25; 95% CI, 0.08-0.77; P = 0.02 and RR, 0.69; 95% CI, 0.51-0.94; P = 0.94). Differences in other outcome parameters were not significant. CONCLUSIONS This systematic review and meta-analysis suggested that the use of mannitol during kidney transplantation leads to lower incidence of acute renal failure and delayed graft function. For all other outcomes, no significant difference was found. Further research should be conducted on the use of mannitol during donor nephrectomy because of the limited availability of studies. Finally, for interpretation of the outcomes, the quality of the evidence should be taken into consideration and we emphasize the need for more up-to-date research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mannitol, an osmotic diuretic, is proposed to be an oxygen radical scavenger. Mannitol is often used in renal transplantation to attenuate oxidative stress and thus to protect renal graft function. We tested the hypothesis that mannitol reduces overall oxidative stress during deceased donor renal transplantation. METHODS We randomly assigned 34 patients undergoing deceased donor renal transplantation to receive a solution of mannitol or placebo shortly before graft reperfusion until the end of surgery. We evaluated oxidative stress by measuring the static oxidative-reduction potential (sORP) and the capacity of the oxidative-reduction potential (cORP). sORP and cORP were measured pre-operatively, before and within 10 minutes after graft reperfusion, and post-operatively. RESULTS Seventeen patients were enrolled in the mannitol group and 17 patients were enrolled in the placebo group. Mannitol had no significant effect on sORP (148.5 mV [136.2; 160.2]) as compared to placebo (143.6 mV [135.8; 163.2], P = .99). There was also no significant difference in cORP between the mannitol (0.22 µC [0.16; 0.36]) and the placebo group (0.22 µC [0.17; 0.38], P = .76). CONCLUSION Mannitol showed no systemic redox scavenging effects during deceased donor renal transplantation. To evaluate the direct effect of mannitol on the renal graft further studies are needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mannitol and furosemide have been used as diuretics intraoperatively to facilitate early renal allograft function and reduce delayed graft function. As the evidence of any efficacy of these agents is limited, we sought to characterize the use of diuretics among transplant surgeons. METHODS An anonymous online survey was sent to all Canadian transplant programs where kidney transplants are routinely performed. Questions were related to the use and indications for mannitol and furosemide. Responses were collected and analyzed as counts and percentages of respondents. We used χ2 analysis to assess the relationship between demographic factors and survey responses. RESULTS Thirty-five surgeons completed the survey (response rate 50%). Seventy per cent of respondents reported performing 26 or more transplants per year, 88% had formal transplant fellowship training and 67% indicated that they currently train fellows. Only 24% and 12% reported believing that delayed graft function is reduced by mannitol and furosemide use, respectively. However, 73% routinely gave mannitol to patients and 53% routinely gave furosemide. The most common justification given for mannitol use was to induce diuresis (54%); 37% of respondents reported using mannitol because of training dogma. Likewise, 57% used furosemide for diuresis, with 23% reporting that their use of this agent was based on dogma. No relationship emerged between fellowship training, case volume or training program status and the use of any agent. Interestingly, 71% of respondents indicated that a randomized controlled trial evaluating the utility of intraoperative diuretics is needed and that they were interested in participating in such a trial. CONCLUSION Use of intraoperative diuretics and the rationale for their use vary among surgeons. A substantial proportion of surgeons use these medications on the basis of dogma alone. A randomized controlled trial is needed to clarify the role of intraoperative diuretics in kidney transplant surgery.

Abstract
Background Ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is associated with renal tissue damage during deceased donor renal transplantation. The effect of mannitol to reduce I/R injury during graft reperfusion in renal transplant recipients is based on weak evidence. We evaluated the effect of mannitol to reduce renal graft injury represented by 16 serum biomarkers, which are indicators for different important pathophysiological pathways. Our primary outcome were differences in biomarker concentrations between the mannitol and the placebo group 24 h after graft reperfusion. Additionally, we performed a linear mixed linear model to account biomarker concentrations before renal transplantation. Methods Thirty-four patients undergoing deceased donor renal transplantation were randomly assigned to receive either 20% mannitol or 0.9% NaCl placebo solution before, during, and after graft reperfusion. Sixteen serum biomarkers (MMP1, CHI3L1, CCL2, MMP8, HGF, GH, FGF23, Tie2, VCAM1, TNFR1, IGFBP7, IL18, NGAL, Endostatin, CystC, KIM1) were measured preoperatively and 24 h after graft reperfusion using Luminex assays and ELISA. Results Sixteen patients in each group were analysed. Tie2 differed 24 h after graft reperfusion between both groups (p = 0.011). Change of log2 transformed concentration levels over time differed significantly in four biomarkers (VCAM1,Endostatin, KIM1, GH; p = 0.007; p = 0.013; p = 0.004; p = 0.033; respectively) out of 16 between both groups. Conclusion This study showed no effect of mannitol on I/R injury in patients undergoing deceased renal transplantation. Thus, we do not support the routinely use of mannitol to attenuate I/R injury. Trial registration NCT02705573. Registered on 10th March 2016.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The central focus of anesthesia management in kidney transplantation is to avoid hypotensive episodes and maintain adequate perfusion pressure to the graft. However, it is not clear whether there is an optimal systolic blood pressure (SBP) level after reperfusion for living-donor transplant outcomes. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of SBP after reperfusion on early graft function in living-donor kidney transplantation. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 315 patients who underwent living-donor kidney transplantation from January 2013 to December 2017. We divided the patients into 4 groups according to SBP after reperfusion and compared the postoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate and creatinine. RESULTS There were no differences in the postoperative recovery of kidney graft function in the first 7 postoperative days among the 4 SBP groups after reperfusion. However, the urine output after reperfusion was significantly less in the group with SBP < 140 mm Hg after reperfusion compared with the remaining 3 groups in a multivariate analysis (P = .04). CONCLUSIONS No significant differences in early graft function were observed among the 4 SBP groups. SBP ≥ 140 mm Hg after reperfusion, which is linked to greater urine output, can be beneficial in terms of long-term graft survival and mortality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Juxtarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) comprises 15-20% of all AAAs and often requires open surgical repair (OSR) due to anatomical limitations associated with endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR), particularly in the case of hostile proximal necks. This study aimed to evaluate short- and long-term outcomes of suprarenal clamping during OSR of juxtarenal AAAs and compare the outcomes of this technique with those of infrarenal clamping for AAAs. METHODS Between January 1 2014, and December 31 2016, 289 consecutive patients aged ≥40 years underwent primary repair for infrarenal AAAs, including 141 OSRs and 148 EVARs. Of the 141 patients, 20 were excluded and totally, 121 patients were included. RESULTS All patients had fusiform-type AAAs and were divided into infrarenal (N = 98) or suprarenal (N=23) clamp groups. The mean follow-up period was 51.4 months (95% CI: 48.6-54.2). Mean survival time was 51.4 months (95% CI: 48.6-54.2). Thirty-day mortality was 0.8%, and there was no significant difference between two groups (P > .999). Renal complication in infrarenal clamp group was 4.1% and suprarenal clamp group was 4.3% (P > .999). Old age (HR: 1.084; 95% CI: 1.025-1.147; P=.005) and high ASA score (HR: 2.361; 95% CI: 1.225-4.553; P = .010) were substantially associated with in-hospital complications. CONCLUSIONS Although endovascular procedures for repairing juxtarenal AAAs, such as fenestrated EVAR, have been developed, surgical repair is the standard treatment for juxtarenal AAAs. Morbidity and mortality due to open surgery were not higher in the juxtarenal AAA group than in the infrarenal AAA group. Therefore, need for suprarenal clamp should not preclude OSR and also there is continued need for training in surgical exposure of juxtarenal AAA and OSR.

Abstract
Kidney transplantation is the treatment of choice in patients with end-stage renal disease, as it improves survival and quality of life. Living donor kidney transplant prior to pancreas transplantation, or simultaneous pancreas and kidney transplantation are discussed. Patients usually present comorbidities and extensive preoperative workups are recommended, especially cardiac assessment, though type and frequency of surveillance is not established. Nephroprotective strategies include adequate fluid status and goal-directed therapy. The conventional use of diuretics has not demonstrated a real nephroprotective effect at follow-up. Thromboprophylaxis regimes, especially for the pancreatic graft outcome, are of importance. Notably, transplantation in the obese population has increased in recent decades. Strict preoperative evaluation and pulmonary considerations must be kept in mind. Finally, robotic kidney transplant is a recent approach that presents anesthetic challenges, mainly related to steep Trendelenburg position and fluid restriction.

Abstract
Mannitol, an osmotic diuretic, has been used to prevent acute kidney injury (AKI). However, studies have found divergent effects of intraoperative mannitol administration on postoperative AKI. We therefore evaluated the effects of intraoperative mannitol administration on AKI after robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP) in prostate cancer patients.A total of 864 patients who underwent RALP were divided into mannitol (administered at 0.5 g/kg) and no-mannitol groups. Demographics, cancer-related data, preoperative laboratory values, intraoperative data, and postoperative outcomes such as AKI, chronic kidney disease at 12 months postoperation, duration of hospital stay, and intensive care unit admission rate and duration of stay were compared between the 2 groups using propensity score matching analysis. To determine the risk factors for AKI after RALP, univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed. Postoperative AKI was defined according to the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes criteria.After performing 1:1 propensity score matching, the mannitol and no-mannitol groups included 234 patients each. The overall incidence of AKI after RALP was 5.1% and was not significantly different between the no-mannitol and mannitol groups in the propensity score-matched patients (13 [5.6%] vs. 11 [4.7%], P = .832). Univariate logistic regression analysis revealed that body mass index and operative time were associated with AKI in 864 patients who underwent RALP. However, intraoperative mannitol administration was not associated with AKI after RALP (P = .284). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that operative time was significantly associated with AKI after RALP (odds ratio = 1.013, P = .001). The incidence of chronic kidney disease (13 [5.6%] vs. 12 [5.1%], P = 1.000) and other postoperative outcomes were not also significantly different between the no-mannitol and mannitol groups in the propensity score-matched patients.Intraoperative mannitol administration has no beneficial effect on the prevention of AKI after RALP in prostate cancer patients. This result provides useful information for clinical practice guidelines regarding intraoperative mannitol use.

Abstract
Fluids are the only known method of attenuating renal injury. Furthermore, whether for hydration, resuscitation or renal replacement therapy, fluid prescriptions must be tailored to the fluid and electrolyte, cardiovascular status and residual renal function of the patient. Different fluids have significantly different effects both on volume expansion as well as on the electrolyte and acid-base balance; while controversial, different fluids may even influence renal function differently. This systematic review focuses on fluids for prevention and management of acute kidney injury. We have reviewed the available evidence and have made recommendations for clinical practice and future studies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES AND METHODS The Furosemide Stress Test (FST) is a novel dynamic assessment of tubular function that has been shown in preliminary studies to predict patients who will progress to advanced stage acute kidney injury, including those who receive renal replacement therapy (RRT). The aim of this study is to investigate if the urinary response to a single intraoperative dose of intravenous furosemide predicts delayed graft function (DGF) in patients undergoing deceased donor kidney transplant. RESULTS On an adjusted multiple logistic regression, a single 100 mg dose of intraoperative furosemide after the anastomosis of the renal vessels (FST) predicted the need for RRT at 2 and 6 h post kidney transplantation (KT). Recipient urinary output was measured at 2 and 6 h post furosemide administration. In receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) analysis, the FST predicted DGF with an area-under-the curve of 0.85 at an optimal urinary output cut-off of <600 mls at 6 h with a sensitivity of and a specificity of 83% and 74%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The FST is a predictor of DGF post kidney transplant and has the potential to identify patients requiring RRT early after KT.

Abstract
Preservation of adequate perfusion pressures to the graft is a main focus of intraoperative management during kidney transplantation. We undertook this study to investigate the incidence of the higher use of inotropes in kidney transplant recipients and identify the patient outcomes and preoperative and intraoperative variables related to this.We retrospectively analyzed 1053 patients who underwent kidney transplantation at Asan Medical Center between January 2006 and February 2012, stratified by their inotropic score ([dopamine] + [dobutamine] + [epinephrine × 100] + [norepinephrine × 100]) <7 versus ≥7, wherein all doses are expressed as μg/kg/min. We evaluated preoperative characteristics, hemodynamic parameters, and intraoperative variables as well as postoperative outcomes, such as length of hospital stay and 1-year rejection and mortality rate.Receiver-operating characteristic analysis was performed to determine inotropic score to predict 1-year mortality. An inotropic score of 7 had the best combined sensitivity and specificity. An inotropic score ≥7 (137 patients, 13.0%) was significantly more prevalent in older patients, those with polycystic kidney disease, and at a 2nd transplant. Anesthesia time, the amounts of crystalloid and 5% albumin infused, and the need for red blood cell transfusion were significantly higher in the inotropic score ≥7 group. The patients with a higher use of inotropes required longer postoperative hospital stay and experienced a >2-fold higher rejection within the 1st year and a 4-fold higher 1-year mortality rate.A higher use of inotropes in kidney transplant recipients is more prevalent in older patients, those with a 2nd transplant and in patients with polycystic kidney disease as their primary renal disease. The postoperative hospital stay, rejection within the 1st year, and 1-year mortality rate are increased in patients with an inotropic score ≥7.

Abstract
Surgical removal of the kidney tumor outside the body, (ex vivo renal bench surgery) followed by auto transplantation is an emerging and often done procedure to reconstruct the urinary tract. It possesses immense challenges to both the anesthesiologists and the surgeons. The risks are multiplied if you are performing the surgery on a solitary functioning kidney. Here, we are describing the anesthetic management of 70-year-old male post nephrectomy patient undergoing renal auto transplantation by bench surgery. Our primary goals for perioperative management were to maintain a stable hemodynamics throughout the procedure, to reduce fluid overload during the period of extracorporeal surgery, to maintain perfusion for the transplanted solitary kidney, to control bleeding to a minimum, and to provide adequate analgesia for the patient. We made use of a balanced anesthetic technique and stringent monitoring standards to bring forth a successful outcome for the patient. At the end of his hospital stay, patient went home with a healthy, normally functioning kidney.

Abstract
Donation after circulatory death (DCD) donors provides an invaluable source for kidneys for transplantation. Over the last decade, we have observed a substantial increase in the number of DCD kidneys, particularly within Europe. We provide an overview of risk factors associated with DCD kidney function and survival and formulate recommendations from the sixth international conference on organ donation in Paris, for best-practice guidelines. A systematic review of the literature was performed using Ovid Medline, Embase and Cochrane databases. Topics are discussed, including donor selection, organ procurement, organ preservation, recipient selection and transplant management.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major public health problem worldwide. Roughly 1 in 10 adult Americans has CKD. These patients are at significant risk for excessive morbidity and mortality during the perioperative period. Given the health and cost burden of end-stage renal disease (ESRD), preventing or avoiding progression of CKD to ESRD is critical. Therefore, identifying risk factors and implementing risk mitigation strategies to prevent further deterioration of renal function during the perioperative period is of paramount importance. This article reviews patient risk stratification, preoperative evaluation and management, and perioperative interventions for renal protection.

Abstract
To reduce the growing waiting list for kidney transplantation, we explored the limits of kidney transplantation from donors after cardiac death by liberally accepting marginal donor kidneys for transplantation. As the percentage of primary non-function (PNF) increased, we evaluated our transplantation program and implemented changes to reduce the high percentage of PNF in 2005, followed by a second evaluation over the period 2006-2009. Recipients of a kidney from a donor after cardiac death between 1998 and 2005 were analyzed, with PNF as outcome measure. During the period 2002-2005, the percentage of PNF increased and crossed the upper control limits of 12% which was considered as unacceptably high. After implementation of changes, this percentage was reduced to 5%, without changing the number of kidney transplantations from donors after cardiac death. Continuous monitoring of the quality of care is essential as the boundaries of organ donation and transplantation are sought. Meticulous donor, preservation, and recipient management make extension of the donor potential possible, with good results for the individual recipient. Liberal use of kidneys from donors after cardiac death may contribute to a reduction in the waiting list for kidney transplantation and dialysis associated mortality.

Abstract
Introduction Acute kidney injury (AKI), which is a major complication after cardiovascular surgery, is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Diuretic agents are frequently used to improve urine output and to facilitate fluid management in these patients. Mannitol, an osmotic diuretic, is used in the perioperative setting in the belief that it exerts reno-protective properties. In a recent study on uncomplicated postcardiac-surgery patients with normal renal function, mannitol increased glomerular filtration rate (GFR), possibly by a deswelling effect on tubular cells. Furthermore, experimental studies have previously shown that renal ischemia causes an endothelial cell injury and dysfunction followed by endothelial cell edema. We studied the effects of mannitol on renal blood flow (RBF), glomerular filtration rate (GFR), renal oxygen consumption (RVO2), and extraction (RO2Ex) in early, ischemic AKI after cardiac surgery. Methods Eleven patients with AKI were studied during propofol sedation and mechanical ventilation 2 to 6 days after complicated cardiac surgery. All patients had severe heart failure treated with one (100%) or two (73%) inotropic agents and intraaortic balloon pump (36%). Systemic hemodynamics were measured with a pulmonary artery catheter. RBF and renal filtration fraction (FF) were measured by the renal vein thermo-dilution technique and by renal extraction of chromium-51-ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (51Cr-EDTA), respectively. GFR was calculated as the product of FF and renal plasma flow RBF × (1-hematocrit). RVO2 and RO2Ex were calculated from arterial and renal vein blood samples according to standard formulae. After control measurements, a bolus dose of mannitol, 225 mg/kg, was given, followed by an infusion at a rate of 75 mg/kg/h for two 30-minute periods. Results Mannitol did not affect cardiac index or cardiac filling pressures. Mannitol increased urine flow by 61% (P < 0.001). This was accompanied by a 12% increase in RBF (P < 0.05) and a 13% decrease in renal vascular resistance (P < 0.05). Mannitol increased the RBF/cardiac output (CO) relation (P = 0.040). Mannitol caused no significant changes in RO2Ext or renal FF. Conclusions Mannitol treatment of postoperative AKI induces a renal vasodilation and redistributes systemic blood flow to the kidneys. Mannitol does not affect filtration fraction or renal oxygenation, suggestive of balanced increases in perfusion/filtration and oxygen demand/supply.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS Hypoxia may play a role in the development of renal failure in donated kidneys. In the present study, the effects of hypoxia on isolated blood-perfused rabbit kidneys were investigated and the effects of mannitol were explored, giving special attention to intratubular pressure. METHODS Kidneys were perfused with their autologous blood during four 30-min periods (P1-P4). P1 was considered baseline function. In P2, hypoxia was induced either alone or with an infusion of mannitol (15 mg/min) during P2-P4. Reoxygenation was applied after P2. Proximal intratubular pressure was measured in all conditions. RESULTS During hypoxia, renal blood flow doubled and restored immediately in P3. Urine flow stopped in P2, except in the series with mannitol, but gradually resumed in P3 and P4. Likewise, creatinine clearance recovered slightly (<25%) in P4, except for the series with mannitol, where it still could be measured in P2 and reached a value >50% of P1. Proximal intratubular pressure (mean ± SD) increased from 12 ± 5 in P1 to 24 ± 11 mm Hg during hypoxia and returned to 10 ± 6 mm Hg in P3. This increase was not observed with mannitol. CONCLUSION Cellular swelling might be responsible for the suppressed filtration during hypoxia and can be prevented by mannitol.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Expansion of the organ donor pool can be obtained through novel interventions attenuating ischemic acute kidney injury, which will enable the use of kidneys that suffered prolonged ischemia. In basic science, new therapeutic targets are identified that should be tested in a relevant large animal model before use in human kidney transplantation. MATERIALS AND METHODS The current paper provides a detailed description of the technique of autologous transplantation of ischemically injured kidneys in pigs with special emphasis on perioperative care. RESULTS The animal model was validated by showing that renal function after transplantation was proportional to the duration of warm ischemia before organ recovery. The extent of renal dysfunction was reproducible following kidney transplantations with the same warm ischemia time. CONCLUSIONS Our experience may reduce the learning curves of other research groups taking an interest in the model and improve preclinical testing of novel interventions that modulate renal ischemia and reperfusion injury in kidney transplantation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Early graft function is crucial for successful kidney transplantation. Maintaining adequate hydration is complicated by rapid movement of water to the extravascular space. We designed this study to test the effect of maximal hydration during graft ischemia time on early renal function. METHODS Forty adult patients with chronic renal failure underwent renal transplantation from related living donors. Study subjects were randomly assigned 1 of 2 regimens for intraoperative hydration. The constant infusion rate group received normal saline 0.9% at an infusion rate 10 to 12 mL . kg(-1) . h(-1) from the start of surgery until the renal vessels were unclamped after vascular anastomosis. The central venous pressure target (CVPT) group received normal saline 0.9% titrated to maintain a specific central venous pressure (CVP). The target CVP from the start of surgery until clamping of the donor renal vessels was 5 mm Hg except for the interval from clamping of the renal vessels until the end of renal vascular anastomosis, when the target CVP was 15 mm Hg. Perioperative hemodynamics, infused saline volumes, rate of infusion, onset of diuresis, graft turgidity, urine volume, and renal function during the first 5 postoperative days were recorded. RESULTS At the end of renal ischemia time, both groups had received approximately 3 L crystalloid solution. The CVPT group achieved the highest peak of intravascular volume expansion with an average infusion rate of 48.3 mL . min(-1) during 48 +/- 12 minutes of renal ischemia. The CVPT group had better graft function, required fewer vasopressors and diuretics, and had less postoperative tissue edema than the constant infusion rate group. CONCLUSIONS Hydration directed toward maintaining a given CVP during kidney transplantation produced a more stable hemodynamic profile and promoted diuresis. The calculated infusion rate of approximately 45 to 50 mL . min(-1), within an hour ischemia time, seems feasible to enhance early graft function. A larger trial with long-term follow-up of renal function is warranted to confirm the clinical benefit of titrating IV crystalloid administration to maintain a given CVP in this population.

Abstract
Non-heart-beating donor (NHBD) kidneys may substantially expand the donor pool, but many transplant centers are reluctant to use these kidneys because of the relatively high incidence of primary nonfunction (PNF). In heart-beating donor kidneys, intravascular fluid depletion during transplant surgery is associated with delayed graft function (DGF). Therefore, we studied the effect of the recipients' hemodynamic status on the outcome of 177 NHBD kidney transplantations. Independent statistically significant predictors of PNF were average central venous pressure (CVP) below 6 cmH(2)O (adjusted odds ratio (AOR) 3.1 (95% CI: 1.4-7.1), p=0.007), average systolic blood pressure below 110 mmHg (AOR 2.6 (95% CI: 1.1-5.9), p=0.03) and pre-operative diastolic blood pressure below 80 mmHg (AOR 2.4 (95% CI: 1.0-5.9), p=0.05). Donor characteristics were not independently associated with PNF (p>0.10). In a subgroup analysis of 56 paired kidneys, 29% of the recipients with the lower CVP of the pair experienced PNF compared with 11% of their counterparts with higher CVP (p=0.09). Our study indicates that recipient hemodynamics during transplant surgery are major predictors of PNF. Therefore, improving recipient hemodynamics by expansion of the intravascular volume is expected to enhance the results of NHBD kidney transplantations and may enlarge the donor pool by increasing the acceptance of NHBD kidneys.

Abstract
We developed methods for prolonged (12 h), sterile, normothermic perfusion of rat kidneys and screened compounds for renal preservation including: mitochondrial transition pore inhibitor (decylubiquinone); caspase inhibitor (Z-VAD); peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPARalpha) agonists (gemfibrozil, WY-14643); antioxidants (trolox, luteolin, quercetin); growth factors (HGF, PDGF, EGF, IGF-1, VEGF, transferrin); calpain inhibitor (Z-Val-Phe-CHO); calmodulin inhibitor (W7); K(ATP) opener (minoxidil, minoxidil sulfate); PARP inhibitor (3-aminobenzamide); calcium channel blocker (verapamil); V(2) agonist (DDAVP); diuretics (acetazolamide, hydrochlorothiazide, furosemide, mannitol); peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-beta agonist (L-165041); dopamine agonist (dopamine); essential fatty acid (linolenic acid); beta-NAD; urea; uric acid; and aldosterone. In pilot studies, only PPARalpha agonists and mannitol provided promising results. Accordingly, these agents were investigated further. Fifteen rat kidneys were perfused for 12 h with L-15 media at 37 degrees C in the absence or presence of mannitol, gemfibrozil, gemfibrozil + mannitol or WY-14643. Chronic perfusion in untreated kidneys caused destruction of glomerular and tubular architecture (light and electron microscopy), disappearance of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase-alpha(1) (Western blotting), and apoptosis (Apoptag staining). Gemfibrozil and WY-14643 marginally improved some biomarkers of renal preservation. However, the combination of gemfibrozil with mannitol markedly improved all parameters of renal preservation. We conclude that PPARalpha agonists, particularly when combined with mannitol, protect organs from normothermic, perfusion-induced damage.

Abstract
Adequate volume maintenance is essential to prevent acute renal failure during major surgery or to ensure graft function after renal transplantation. The various recommendations on the optimum fluid therapy are based, at best, on sparse evidence only from observational studies. This article reviews the literature on perioperative fluid management in renal transplantation. Crystalloid solutions not exerting any specific side-effects are the first choice for volume replacement in kidney transplantation. The use of colloids should be restricted to patients with severe intravascular volume deficits necessitating high volume restoration. The routine application of albumin, dopamine, and high dose diuretics is no longer warranted. Mannitol given immediately before removal of the vessel clamps reduces the requirement of post-transplant dialysis, but has no effects on graft function in the long term. There is insufficient evidence on the best use of dialysis, but it seems peritoneal dialysis pretransplant is associated with less delayed graft function, whereas the preference of dialysis post-transplant is not yet well-founded. This review article should provide better guidance for fluid management in kidney transplantation until best-evidence guidelines can be established based upon more research.

Abstract
Kidney transplantation is the treatment of choice for patients with end-stage renal disease. After receiving a transplant, survival rates are higher and comorbidities may resolve. As a consequence, more patients with significant comorbidities such as advanced cardiovascular disease will present for transplantation. This review highlights commonly encountered issues in patients undergoing kidney transplantation and recommendations are made for their anesthetic management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Segmental allograft infarction is a poorly characterized complication following renal transplantation. The present study was undertaken with the goal of defining the incidence, clinical characteristics, pathogenesis, and prognosis of this entity. METHODS A retrospective study was performed, reviewing the renal scans performed on all renal transplant recipients at our institution, from January 1997 to January 2000. Segmental infarction was diagnosed on the basis of a significant elevation in lactate dehydrogenase (>500 U/l) together with a photopenic perfusion defect. In these patients, graft characteristics, operative details, clinical course, and long-term outcomes were evaluated. RESULTS Segmental infarction was identified in 13 of 277 consecutive renal transplant recipients (4.7%). In nine recipients the onset of infarction occurred within 24 h after transplantation. All received marginal grafts, and in five recipients the transplant operation was complicated by major blood loss. Eight of these recipients exhibited primary non-function, or developed dialysis-dependent renal failure after the onset of infarction. In four patients, the onset of infarction occurred after 24 h (35 h to 10 days). One recipient demonstrated primary non-function, and renal function deteriorated after the onset of infarction in the remaining three. Overall, long-term graft function was impaired. Two allografts never functioned, and six recipients had nadir creatinine clearances below 60 ml/min. CONCLUSIONS The pathogenesis of segmental infarction appears to be multi-factorial, reflecting the combination of an initiating anatomic lesion and potentiating thrombogenic milieu. Segmental infarction typically occurs in the early postoperative period, and prompt diagnosis is difficult to obtain. In view of this, prophylactic heparin may be warranted for those at highest risk. There was no correlation between the infarct area and the graft function, and the long-term graft function is compromised out of proportion to the extent of parenchymal loss. This finding highlights the role of predisposing factors, particularly marginal graft quality, in determining the functional outcome. Segmental infarction may be more frequently encountered as cadaveric organ shortages encourage greater use of marginal donor kidneys.

Abstract
Delayed graft function (DGF) in cadaver kidney transplants is a common problem and is often due to acute tubular necrosis (ATN). DGF in transplants may have a deleterious effect on long-term graft survival. Since thyroid hormone has been shown to hasten recovery from ATN in experimental models, we designed a trial to determine if a defined course of triiodothyronine (T3) would improve the short- or long-term outcome of patients with DGF in cadaveric transplants. A prospective, randomized, placebo controlled, double blind trial of T3 was carried out in patients with DGF in cadaveric renal transplants. End-points were percentage requiring dialysis, percentage recovering function, time to recovery and length of hospital stay. Long-term outcomes were percentage grafts functioning at 1 year and mean serum creatinine at 1 year. Forty-four patients were randomized to receive either T3 or placebo. Three patients were dropped from each group when early biopsies disclosed that DGF was due to rejection. The groups were well matched by age, cold ischemia time of the graft, and percentage reactivity to a random panel of antigens. Baseline thyroid function studies, including T3, reverse T3 (rT3), and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) levels, were similar between the two groups and typical of 'euthyroid-sick syndrome'. T3 had no effect on percentage requiring dialysis, time to recovery, percentage recovering function, or length of stay. At 1 year follow-up, graft function was similar in both groups and significantly lower than that seen in patients with good initial function. Thyroid hormone, given early in the course of DGF in cadaver kidney recipients, had no effect on the course of DGF. Long-term graft function is impaired in patients who experience post-transplant DGF compared to those who have good initial function.

Abstract
Acute renal failure continues to complicate the postoperative courses of our vascular and cardiac surgical patients, dramatically increasing mortality and decreasing quality of life when it occcurs. In spite of better understanding of the disease, few gains have been made in its prevention. We review its pathophysiology and discuss the most recent developments that may eventually lead to perioperative renal protection.
