Abstract: Objective: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common following cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). The aim of this study is to determine the accuracy of urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) levels following cardiac surgery to establish the severity of renal impairment as compared to serum creatinine levels.Methods: A total number of 28 patients undergoing elective cardiopulmonary bypass were included.
