Mean Arterial Pressure During the First 24 Hours After Cardiac Surgery and Acute Kidney Injury: An Observational Cohort Study
Authors' conclusion
This study was unable to demonstrate an association between increasing time spent in any MAP range band during the first 24 hours postoperatively and AKI.
