Acute Kidney Injury after Heart Valve Surgery in Elderly Patients: any Risk Factors to Modify?

Abstract: Introduction Postoperative acute kidney injury contributes to longer hospital stays and increased costs related to cardiac surgery in the elderly. We analyse the influence of the patient’s age on risk factors for acute kidney injury after cardiac valve surgery. Methods We evaluated the prevalence and risk factors for acute kidney injury in 939 consecutive patients undergoing valve surgery, between 2013 and 2018. Results The prevalence of acut… Show more

“…As a major complication of on-pump cardiac surgeries, acute kidney injury (AKI) due to ischemia-reperfusion injury is associated with increased mortality and morbidity [18]. Age is an independent risk factor for AKI related to cardiac surgery, especially in patients older than 70 years (RR:1.79, 95% CI:1.17-2.72) [19]. In the present study focusing on patients over 70 years, the eGFR of the DNC group was higher than the CBC group immediately after surgery.…”

“…Among clinical factors, acute kidney injury is especially of interest because for those who received heart surgery, post-operation acute kidney injury (AKI) is relatively common and is estimated to be as high as 42%, based on a varied de nition of cardiac surgery-associated AKI [11,12,13,14,15,16,17]. And there are several studies showing AKI has an effect on warfarin dosage.…”
