Long-Term Outcomes of Acute Kidney Injury After Different Types of Cardiac Surgeries: A Population-Based Study.

ABSTRACT: Background Dialysis-requiring acute kidney injury (D-AKI) is a major complication of cardiovascular surgery that results in worse prognosis. However, the incidence and impacts of D-AKI in different types of cardiac surgeries have not been fully investigated. Methods and Results Patients admitted for cardiovascular surgery between July 1, 2004, and December 31, 2013, were identified from the National Health Insurance Research Database of Taiwan. The patients were grouped into D-AKI (n=3089) and non-D-AKI (n=42 151) groups. The outcome was all-cause mortality and major adverse kidney event. The long-term outcomes were worse in the D-AKI group than the non-D-AKI group (hazard ratio [HR], 3.89; 95% CI, 3.79-3.99 for major adverse kidney event; HR, 2.89; 95% CI, 2.81-2.98 for all-cause mortalit
