Acute Kidney Injury Development

Introduction. Acute kidney injury associated with cardiac surgery is a common and significant postoperative complication. With a frequency of 9 - 39% according to different studies, it is the second most common cause of acute kidney injury in intensive care units, and an independent predictor of mortality. This study aimed to investigate the importance of preoperative hemoglobin and uric acid levels as risk factors for acute kidney injury in the postoperative period in cardiac surgery patients. Material and Methods. The study included a total of 118 patients who were divided into two groups. Each group included 59 patients; the fist group included patients who developed acute kidney injury and required renal replacement therapy, and the second included patients without acute kidney injury. Types of cardiac surgery included coronary, valvular, combined, aortic dissection, and others. All necessary data were collected from patient medical records and the electronic database. Results. A statistically significant difference was found between the groups in preoperative hemoglobin levels (108.0 vs. 143.0 g/l, p = 0.0005); postoperative urea (26.4 vs. 5.8 mmol/l, p = 0.0005) and creatinine (371.0 vs. 95.0 ?mol/l, p = 0.0005), acute phase inflammatory reactants C-reactive protein (119.4 vs. 78.9 mg/l, p = 0.002) and procalcitonin (7.0 vs. 0.2 ng/ml, p = 0.0005), creatine kinase myocardial band isoenzyme (1045.0 vs. 647.0 mg/l, p = 0.014); duration of extracorporeal circulation (103.5 vs. 76.0 min, p = 0.0005) and ascending aortic clamp during cardiac surgery (89.0 vs. 67.0 min, p = 0.0005). The exception was the preoperative uric acid level, where there was no statistically significant difference (382.0 vs. 364.0 ?mol/l, p = 0.068). There was a statistically significant correlation between the use of inotropic agents and acute kidney injury development. Conclusion. There is a correlation between the preoperative low hemoglobin levels and postoperative acute kidney injury. There is no statistically significant correlation between the preoperative levels of uric acid and postoperative acute kidney injury.
