Abstract
Introduction:Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a frequent and severe postoperative complication in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with an incidence varying from 36.3 to 52.0%. With increasing interest, this topic has been specifically referred to as cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI). CSA-AKI could contribute to increased in-hospital mortality, 5-year mortality, 30-day readmission, requirement for renal replacement therapy (RRT), ICU length of stay, and total postoperative cost.
