Hemodynamic Determinants of Cardiac Surgery-Associated Acute Kidney Injury.
Critical care explorations. 2024 April
OBJECTIVES: Examine the: 1) relative role of hemodynamic determinants of acute kidney injury (AKI) obtained in the immediate postcardiac surgery setting compared with established risk factors, 2) their predictive value, and 3) extent mediation via central venous pressure (CVP) and mean arterial pressure (MAP).
DESIGN: Retrospective observational study. The main outcome of the study was moderate to severe AKI, per kidney disease: improving global outcomes, within 14 days of surgery.
SETTING: U.S. academic medical center.
PATIENTS: Adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery between January 2000 and December 2019 ( n = 40,426) in a single U.S.-based medical center. Pulmonary artery catheter measurements were performed at a median of 102 minutes (11, 132) following cardiopulmonary bypass discontinuation.
INTERVENTIONS: None.
MEASUREMENTS AND RESULTS: The median age of the cohort was 67 years (58, 75), and 33% were female; 70% had chronic hypertension, 29% had congestive heart failure, and 3% had chronic kidney disease. In a multivariable model, which included comorbidities and traditional intraoperative risk factors, CVP ( p < 0.0001), heart rate ( p < 0.0001), cardiac index ( p < 0.0001), and MAP ( p < 0.0001), were strong predictors of AKI, and superseded factors such as surgery type and cardiopulmonary bypass duration. The cardiac index had a significant interaction with heart rate ( p = 0.026); a faster heart rate had a differentiating effect on the relationship of cardiac index with AKI, where a higher heart rate heightened the risk of AKI primarily in patients with low cardiac output. There was also significant interaction observed between CVP and MAP ( p = 0.009); where the combination of elevated CVP and low MAP had a synergistic effect on AKI incidence.
CONCLUSIONS: Hemodynamic factors measured within a few hours of surgery showed a strong association with AKI. Furthermore, determinants of kidney perfusion, namely CVP and arterial pressure are interdependent; as are constituents of stroke volume, that is, cardiac output and heart rate.
