Effect of preoperative risk on the association between intraoperative hypotension and postoperative acute kidney injury in cardiac surgery

Anaesth Crit Care Pain MedPublished Retrospective cohort study

Authors' conclusion

IOH is a significant independent risk factor for AKI after cardiac surgery. Patients with higher baseline risk showed a more prominent relationship between IOH and postoperative AKI than low-risk patients.

Study context

Population
Patients undergoing cardiac surgery
Exposure
Intraoperative hypotension (IOH) vs less IOH, by preoperative risk group
Outcome
Postoperative AKI
Methodological detailssingle-centre, stratified by preoperative risk
  • Single-centre
  • Stratified by preoperative risk
