Association between intraoperative tidal volume and postoperative acute kidney injury in non-cardiac surgical patients using a propensity score-weighted analysis.

ABSTRACT: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is related to adverse clinical outcomes. Therefore, identifying patients at increased risk of postoperative AKI and proactively providing appropriate care is crucial. However, only a limited number of modifiable risk factors have been recognized to mitigate AKI risk. We retrospectively analyzed adult patients who underwent endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation of more than 2 h during non-cardiac surgery at Seoul National University Hospital from January 2011 to November 2022. Patients were grouped into low- or high-tidal volume groups based on their intraoperative tidal volume relative to their predicted body weight (PBW) of 8 ml/kg. The association between intraoperative tidal volume and postoperative AKI was evaluated using inverse probability of tr
