Development of acute kidney injury following pediatric cardiac surgery

Abstract: Cardiac surgery in the pediatric population is performed for a variety of reasons, including correction of congenital heart disease and acquired cardiac conditions. Pediatric cardiac surgery is not, however, without its risks, as post-operative complications have been seen in up to 43% of cases [1]. Among the risks is the development of acute kidney injury (AKI), a relatively common complication that can arise in the presence of multiple risk factors. Although AKI's exact mechanism, AKI's longterm outcomes, an… Show more

“…It is generally believed that AKI occurring within the first 48 h after surgery is mainly associated with underlying health and intraoperative factors, whereas AKI occurring after 48 h is significantly related to postoperative complications and use of nephrotoxic drugs. In available literature, postoperative low cardiac output syndrome, sepsis, hemodynamic instability, reoperation and exposure to diuretics, vasopressors, gentamycin and nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs have been significantly associated with an increased risk of postoperative AKI in pediatric cardiac surgery patients 4 . We argue that existence of any imbalance in these postoperative risk factors for AKI might have confounded interpretation of their results.…”

“…Neonates and infants undergoing cardiac surgery are among the highest risk patients for developing AKI ( 22 , 23 ). This results from the complex interaction of a multitude of risk factors including but not limited to low cardiac output, single ventricle physiology, ischemic-reperfusion injury, fluid overload (FO), and nephrotoxic medication (NTX) receipt ( 17 , 24 , 25 ).…”
