Risk factors and long-term outcomes of elderly patients complicating with acute kidney injury after type A acute aortic dissection surgery: a retrospective study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

To identify risk factors and long-term outcomes for acute kidney injury (AKI) in elderly patients who underwent type A acute aortic dissection (TA-AAD) emergency surgeries.

Methods

This retrospective study enrolled 214 consecutive patients who underwent TA-AAD emergency surgeries between January 2014 to December 2018 in Nanjing Drum Tower hospital. The diagnosis of AKI was made based on the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes definition (KDIGO) criteria. Multivariable regression analysis was performed to identify risk factors for postoperative AKI. Kaplan-Meier curves were generated to compare the long-term outcomes between patients with and without AKI complication after TA-AAD surgeries.

Results

Among all enrolled patients, 114 (53.3%) developed AKI
