Relationship between intra-operative urine output and postoperative acute kidney injury in paediatric cardiac surgery: A retrospective observational study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Intra-operative urine output (UO) has been shown to predict postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) in adults; however, its significance in children undergoing cardiac surgery remains unknown.

Objective

To explore the association between intra-operative UO and postoperative AKI in children with congenital heart disease.

Design

A retrospective observational study.

Setting

A tertiary hospital.

Patients

Children aged >28 days and <6 years who underwent cardiac surgery at Fuwai Hospital from 1 April 2022 to 30 August 2022.

Main outcome measures

AKI was identified by the highest serum creatinine value within postoperative 7 days using Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria.

Results
