RESUMEN
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the impact of acute kidney injury on transition to chronic kidney disease (CKD) after cardiac surgery and to determine frequency of incident CKD in these patients. DESIGN: A systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies. SETTING: Electronic databases Medline and Embase were systematically searched from 1974 to February 6, 2023. PARTICIPANTS: Eligible studies were original observational studies on adult cardiac surgery patients, written in the English language, and with clear kidney disease definitions. Exclusion criteria were studies with previously transplanted populations, populations with preoperative kidney impairment, ventricular assist device procedures, endovascular procedures, a kidney follow-up period of <90 days, and studies not presenting necessary data for effect size calculations. INTERVENTIONS: Patients developing postoperative acute kidney injury after cardiac surgery were compared with patients who did not develop acute kidney injury. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: The search identified 4,329 unique studies, 87 underwent full-text review, and 12 were included for analysis. Mean acute kidney injury occurrence across studies was 16% (minimum-maximum: 8-50), while mean occurrence of CKD was 24% (minimum-maximum: 3-35), with high variability depending on definitions and follow-up time. Acute kidney injury was associated with increased odds of CKD in all individual studies. The pooled odds ratio across studies was 5.67 (95% confidence interval, 3.34-9.64; p < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: Acute kidney injury after cardiac surgery was associated with a more than 5-fold increased odds of developing CKD. New-onset CKD occurred in almost 1 in 4 patients in the years after surgery.

BACKGROUND: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a significant risk factor associated with reduced survival following out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Whether the severity of AKI simply serves as a surrogate measure of worse peri-arrest conditions, or represents an additional risk to long-term survival remains unclear. METHODS: This is a sub-study derived from a randomized trial in which 789 comatose adult OHCA patients with presumed cardiac cause and sustained return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) were enrolled. Patients without prior dialysis dependent kidney disease and surviving at least 48 h were included (N = 759). AKI was defined by the kidney disease: improving global outcome (KDIGO) classification, and patients were divided into groups based on the development of AKI and the need for continuous kidney replacement therapy (CKRT), thus establishing three groups of patients-No AKI, AKI no CKRT, and AKI CKRT. Primary outcome was overall survival within 365 days after OHCA according to AKI group. Adjusted Cox proportional hazard models were used to assess overall survival within 365 days according to the three groups. RESULTS: In the whole population, median age was 64 (54-73) years, 80% male, 90% of patients presented with shockable rhythm, and time to ROSC was median 18 (12-26) min. A total of 254 (33.5%) patients developed AKI according to the KDIGO definition, with 77 requiring CKRT and 177 without need for CKRT. AKI CKRT patients had longer time-to-ROSC and worse metabolic derangement at hospital admission. Overall survival within 365 days from OHCA decreased with the severity of kidney injury. Adjusted Cox regression analysis found that AKI, both with and without CKRT, was significantly associated with reduced overall survival up until 365 days, with comparable hazard ratios relative to no AKI (HR 1.75, 95% CI 1.13-2.70 vs. HR 1.76, 95% CI 1.30-2.39). CONCLUSIONS: In comatose patients who had been resuscitated after OHCA, patients developing AKI, with or without initiation of CKRT, had a worse 1-year overall survival compared to non-AKI patients. This association remains statistically significant after adjusting for other peri-arrest risk factors. TRIAL REGISTRATION: The BOX trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT03141099.

Cardiac Surgery-Associated Acute Kidney Injury (CSA-AKI) is a serious complication seen in approximately 20-30% of cardiac surgery patients. The underlying pathophysiology is complex, often involving both patient- and procedure related risk factors. In contrast to AKI occurring after other types of major surgery, the use of cardiopulmonary bypass comprises both additional advantages and challenges, including non-pulsatile flow, targeted blood flow and pressure as well as the ability to manipulate central venous pressure (congestion). With an increasing focus on the impact of CSA-AKI on both short and long-term mortality, early identification and management of high-risk patients for CSA-AKI has evolved. The present narrative review gives an up-to-date summary on definition, diagnosis, underlying pathophysiology, monitoring and implications of CSA-AKI, including potential preventive interventions. The review will provide the reader with an in-depth understanding of how to identify, support and provide a more personalized and tailored perioperative management to avoid development of CSA-AKI.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Acute kidney injury (AKI) represents a common and serious complication to out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. The importance of post-resuscitation care targets for blood pressure and oxygenation for the development of AKI is unknown. METHODS: This is a substudy of a randomized 2-by-2 factorial trial, in which 789 comatose adult patients who had out-of-hospital cardiac arrest with presumed cardiac cause and sustained return of spontaneous circulation were randomly assigned to a target mean arterial blood pressure of either 63 or 77 mm Hg. Patients were simultaneously randomly assigned to either a restrictive oxygen target of a partial pressure of arterial oxygen (Pao2) of 9 to 10 kPa or a liberal oxygenation target of a Pao2 of 13 to 14 kPa. The primary outcome for this study was AKI according to KDIGO (Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes) classification in patients surviving at least 48 hours (N=759). Adjusted logistic regression was performed for patients allocated to high blood pressure and liberal oxygen target as reference. RESULTS: The main population characteristics at admission were: age, 64 (54-73) years; 80% male; 90% shockable rhythm; and time to return of spontaneous circulation, 18 (12-26) minutes. Patients allocated to a low blood pressure and liberal oxygen target had an increased risk of developing AKI compared with patients with high blood pressure and liberal oxygen target (84/193 [44%] versus 56/187 [30%]; adjusted odds ratio, 1.87 [95% CI, 1.21-2.89]). Multinomial logistic regression revealed that the increased risk of AKI was only related to mild-stage AKI (KDIGO stage 1). There was no difference in risk of AKI in the other groups. Plasma creatinine remained high during hospitalization in the low blood pressure and liberal oxygen target group but did not differ between groups at 6- and 12-month follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: In comatose patients who had been resuscitated after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, patients allocated to a combination of a low mean arterial blood pressure and a liberal oxygen target had a significantly increased risk of mild-stage AKI. No difference was found in terms of more severe AKI stages or other kidney-related adverse outcomes, and creatinine had normalized at 1 year after discharge.
