ABSTRACT: Importance
Cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI) remains a significant problem following cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Various strategies are proposed to attenuate CSA-AKI, including extracorporeal blood purification (EBP), but little is known about the effect of EBP through an acrylonitrile-sodium methallylsulfonate/polyethyleneimine membrane during CPB.Objective
To determine whether the use of an EBP device in a nonemergent cardiac surgery population reduces CSA-AKI after CPB.Design, setting, and participants
This double-blind, randomized clinical trial was conducted in 2 tertiary hospitals in Spain. Patients 18 years or older undergoing nonemergent cardiac surgery who were at high risk for CSA-AKI were enrolled from June 15, 2016, through Novem
