ABSTRACT: Background
The incidence and prognostic significance of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with diabetes mellitus and multivessel coronary artery disease undergoing coronary revascularization is not well known. The current analysis included patients randomized to PCI vs. CABG as part of the FREEDOM trial. We sought to examine the impact of AKI and its predictors in diabetic patients with multivessel coronary artery disease undergoing PCI vs. CABG.Methods
We conducted a pre-specified subgroup analysis of the FREEDOM trial to examine the incidence, correlates and impact of AKI according to revascularization strategy. AKI predictors were identified using multivariable logistic regression and associations between AKI and outcomes were examined using Cox regression. The prima
