Changes in classification criteria and active introduction of biomarkers of acute kidney injury (KDIGO, 2012) are changing approaches to diagnosis and treatment of postoperative renal dysfunction including cardiac surgery patients operated with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). The objective: to compare the detection rate of AKI after surgery with CPB with the use of biomarkers and kidney disease improving global outcomes criteria, as well as to evaluate the cause and localization of structural changes of the nephron.Subjects and Methods. A monocenter observational study among elective cardiac surgery patients (n = 97) was conducted. Inclusion criteria: age over 18 years, duration of surgery (coronary bypass surgery, prosthetic heart valves) from 90 to 180 minutes, no signs of end stage kidney disease. AKI was diagnosed based on changes in serum creatinine and biomarkers (NGAL, IgG, albumin in urine). The studied parameters were recorded 15 minutes after the start and end of anesthesia, as well as 24 and 48 hours after surgery. Retrospectively, the group was divided into three subgroups: 1) patients without AKI after surgery; 2) patients in whom signs of AKI were detected after 24 hours but regressed by the 48th hour; 3) patients in whom AKI persisted during all 48 hours of follow-up.Results. 24 hours after surgery, AKI based on KDIGO criteria was recorded in 56.3% of patients. Using biomarkers, signs of tubular damage (NGAL) at the end of anesthesia were detected in 95.9% of patients; after 24 hours, they were registered in 73.2% of cases. In a subgroup where AKI persisted for more than 24 hours, glomeruli were damaged in addition to tubules which was manifested not only by selective but also by non-selective proteinuria. The duration of CPB, hemodilution (Hb < 90 g/l), the release of free hemoglobin in the blood (> 1.5 mg/l) at low (< 1 g/l) values of haptoglobin were significantly associated with AKI development.Conclusion. The KDIGO criteria do not allow detecting a subclinical form of renal dysfunction which may occur in about 40% of patients after surgery with CPB. AKI can be caused by damage to both the tubular part of the nephron and glomeruli in cases of prolonged CPB with the development of hemolysis, the release of free hemoglobin in the blood, and persisting anemia at the end of the surgery. The NGAL assessment makes it possible to detect subclinical kidney injury in the absence of elevated serum creatinine levels.

Abstract Introduction: Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurs in about 22% of the patients undergoing cardiac surgery and 2.3% requires renal replacement therapy (RRT). The current diagnostic criteria for AKI by increased serum creatinine levels have limitations and new biomarkers are being tested. Urine sediment may be considered a biomarker and it can help to differentiate pre-renal (functional) from renal (intrinsic) AKI. Aims: To investigate the microscopic urinalysis in the AKI diagnosis in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. Methods: One hundred and fourteen patients, mean age 62.3 years, 67.5 % male, with creatinine 0.91 mg/dL (SD 0.22) had a urine sample examined in the first 24 h after the surgery. We looked for renal tubular epithelial cells (RTEC) and granular casts (GC) and associated the results with AKI development as defined by KDIGO criteria. Results: Twenty three patients (20.17 %) developed AKI according to the serum creatinine criterion and 76 (66.67 %) by the urine output criterion. Four patients required RRT. Mortality was 3.51 %. The use of urine creatinine criterion to predict AKI showed a sensitivity of 34.78 % and specificity of 86.81 %, positive likelihood ratio of 2.64 and negative likelihood ratio of 0.75, AUC-ROC of 0.584 (95%CI: 0.445-0.723). For the urine output criterion sensitivity was 23.68 % and specificity 92.11 %, AUC-ROC was 0.573 (95%CI: 0.465-0.680). Conclusion: RTEC and GC in urine sample detected by microscopy is a highly specific biomarker for early AKI diagnosis after cardiac surgery.

AbstractPostoperative acute kidney injury (PO-AKI) is a common complication of major surgery that is strongly associated with short-term surgical complications and long-term adverse outcomes, including increased risk of chronic kidney disease, cardiovascular events and death. Risk factors for PO-AKI include older age and comorbid diseases such as chronic kidney disease and diabetes mellitus. PO-AKI is best defined as AKI occurring within 7 days of an operative intervention using the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) definition of AKI; however, additional prognostic information may be gained from detailed clinical assessment and other diagnostic investigations in the form of a focused kidney health assessment (KHA). Prevention of PO-AKI is largely based on identification of high baseline risk, monitoring and reduction of nephrotoxic insults, whereas treatment involves the application of a bundle of interventions to avoid secondary kidney injury and mitigate the severity of AKI. As PO-AKI is strongly associated with long-term adverse outcomes, some form of follow-up KHA is essential; however, the form and location of this will be dictated by the nature and severity of the AKI. In this Consensus Statement, we provide graded recommendations for AKI after non-cardiac surgery and highlight priorities for future research.

Abstract Background: We aim to investigate whether the postoperative cardiac function improve or not would affect the risk of cardiac surgery associated acute kidney injury (AKI) for patients with preoperative renal dysfunction. Method: Data from patients underwent cardiac surgery from April 2012 to February 2016 were collected. Renal dysfunction was defined as preoperative SCr >1.2 mg/dL (females) or >1.5 mg/dL (males). Patients were grouped as normal renal function group, renal dysfunction with chronic kidney disease (CKD group), and non CKD group. △LVEF=postoperative LVEF - preoperative LVEF. Cardiac function improved was defined as △LVEF ≥10. Patients were further divided into non CKD & cardiac function improved (non CKD+), non CKD & cardiac function not improved (non CKD-), CKD & cardiac function improved (CKD+) and CKD & cardiac function not improved (CKD-) subgroups.Results: A total of 8,661 patients were allocated as normal renal function (n=7,903), non CKD(n = 662) and CKD (n = 136) groups. Both non CKD and CKD groups had higher AKI incidence than normal function group (39.5% vs 30.0%, P < 0.001; 61.8% vs 30.0%, P<0.001), and non CKD+ group had the similar AKI incidence with normal function group (30.9% vs 30.0%, P=0.729). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that non CKD-, CKD+ and CKD- were significant risk factors, whereas non CKD+ was not a significant risk factor for postoperative AKI. The SCr at discharge in non CKD+ subgroup was significantly lower than its preoperative SCr (1.4 ± 0.8 vs 1.7 ± 0.9 mg/dL, P = 0.020).Conclusions: For renal dysfunction patients with no CKD, the risk of postoperative AKI did not exist if the cardiac function improved after surgery. For CKD patients, the risk of postoperative AKI increase regardless whether the cardiac function improved or not.

Abstract Background Systemic inflammation contributes to cardiac surgery–associated acute kidney injury (AKI). Cardiomyocytes and other organs experience hypothermia and hypoxia during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), which induces the secretion of cold-inducible RNA-binding protein (CIRP). Extracellular CIRP may induce a proinflammatory response. Materials and Methods The serum CIRP levels in 76 patients before and after cardiac surgery were determined to analyze the correlation between CIRP levels and CPB time. The risk factors for AKI after cardiac surgery and the in-hospital outcomes were also analyzed. Results The difference in the levels of CIRP (ΔCIRP) after and before surgery in patients who experienced cardioplegic arrest (CA) was 26-fold higher than those who did not, and 2.7-fold of those who experienced CPB without CA. The ΔCIRP levels were positively correlated with CPB time (r = 0.574, p < 0.001) and cross-clamp time (r = 0.54, p < 0.001). Multivariable analysis indicated that ΔCIRP (odds ratio: 1.003; 95% confidence interval: 1.000–1.006; p = 0.027) was an independent risk factor for postoperative AKI. Patients who underwent aortic dissection surgery had higher levels of CIRP and higher incidence of AKI than other patients. The incidence of AKI and duration of mechanical ventilation in patients whose serum CIRP levels more than 405 pg/mL were significantly higher than those less than 405 pg/mL (65.8 vs. 42.1%, p = 0.038; 23.1 ± 18.2 vs. 13.8 ± 9.2 hours, p = 0.007). Conclusion A large amount of CIRP was released during cardiac surgery. The secreted CIRP was associated with the increased risk of AKI after cardiac surgery.

Introduction: Cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI) is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Objectives: We aimed to identify potentially modifiable risk factors for CSA-AKI. Methods: This was asingle-center retrospective cohort study of 495 adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery. AKI was diagnosed and staged using full KDIGO criteria incorporating baseline serum creatinine (SC) levels and correction of postoperative SC levels for fluid balance. We examined the association of routinely available clinical and laboratory data with AKI using multivariate logistic regression modeling. Results: A total of 103 (20.8%) patients developed AKI: 16 (15.5%) patients were diagnosed with AKI upon hospital admission, and 87 (84.5%) patients were diagnosed with CSA-AKI. Correction of SC levels for fluid balance increased the number of AKI cases to 104 (21.0%), with 6 patients categorized to different AKI stages. Univariate logistic regression analysis identified five preoperative (age, sex, diabetes mellitus, preoperative systolic pulmonary arterial pressure [PSPAP], acute decompensated heart failure) and five intraoperative predictors of AKI (age, sex, red blood cell [RBC] volume transfused, use of minimally invasive surgery, duration of cardiopulmonary bypass). When all preoperative and intraoperative variables were incorporated into one model, six predictors remained significant (age, sex, use of minimally invasive surgery, RBC volume transfused, PSPAP, duration of cardiopulmonary bypass). Model discrimination performance showed an area under the curve of 0.69 for the model including only preoperative variables, 0.76 for the model including only intraoperative variables, and 0.77 for the model including all preoperative and intraoperative variables. Conclusions: Use of minimally invasive surgery and therapies mitigating PSPAP and intraoperative blood loss may offer protection against CSA-AKI.

Abstract Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a key risk factor for chronic kidney disease in the general population, but has not been investigated in detail among renal transplant recipients (RTRs). We investigated the incidence, severity and risk factors for AKI following cardiac surgery among RTRs compared with non-RTRs with otherwise similar clinical characteristics. Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study of RTRs (n = 83) and non-RTRs (n = 83) who underwent cardiac surgery at two major academic medical centers. Non-RTRs were matched 1:1 to RTRs by age, preoperative (preop) estimated glomerular filtration rate and type of cardiac surgery. We defined AKI according to Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes criteria. Results RTRs had a higher rate of AKI following cardiac surgery compared with non-RTRs [46% versus 28%; adjusted odds ratio 2.77 (95% confidence interval 1.36–5.64)]. Among RTRs, deceased donor (DD) versus living donor (LD) status, as well as higher versus lower preop calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) trough levels, were associated with higher rates of AKI (57% versus 33% among DD-RTRs versus LD-RTRs; P = 0.047; 73% versus 36% among RTRs with higher versus lower CNI trough levels, P = 0.02). The combination of both risk factors (DD status and higher CNI trough level) had an additive effect (88% AKI incidence among patients with both risk factors versus 25% incidence among RTRs with neither risk factor, P = 0.004). Conclusions RTRs have a higher risk of AKI following cardiac surgery compared with non-RTRs with otherwise similar characteristics. Among RTRs, DD-RTRs and those with higher preop CNI trough levels are at the highest risk.
