Postoperative acute kidney injury

Abstract: Acute kidney injury (AKI) after cardiac surgery is a common and serious complication. Several definitions of AKI have been proposed recently, and include both increases in serum creatinine levels and decreases in urine output as diagnostic criteria. The pathophysiology of postoperative AKI is complex and involves both ischemic injury and systemic inflammation. Identifying risk factors, such as old age, underlying diabetes, heart failure, and obesity, may aid in the application of preventative methods for posto… Show more

“…The ability to predict post-LT AKI is an important issue during the period of postoperative care, including post-transplantation. The mortality and morbidity of patients with a history of postoperative AKI are significantly higher than those of patients without such history [25]. This has been proven to worsen the function of graft livers in patients with post-AKI after LT [10].…”

“…In cardiac surgery, sterile inflammatory response is caused by CPB, myocardial damage with ischemia/reperfusion injury, and surgical stimulation 13 . While fundamentally being a protective internal response, it progresses to a systemic inflammatory response syndrome when extensive, which is associated with major complications such as multiple organ damage and even mortality after surgery [14][15][16] . Thus, identifying patients at risk of aggravated systemic inflammation through a reliable serum biomarker would be of clinical importance in terms of accurate risk stratification and guiding tailored anti-inflammatory therapies.…”

“…Conversely, AKI seems to be a risk factor for the development of CKD . Surgery, especially intraperitoneal and emergency surgery, increases the risk for AKI . Many perioperative events—such as the use of NSAIDs, hypovolemia, hypotension, and infection—may impair renal function …”
