Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The investigators seek to determine whether a reduced preoperative renal functional reserve predicts postoperative acute kidney injury in patients with normal estimated glomerular filtration rates undergoing elective cardiac surgery.

Detailed Description
Although acute kidney injury (AKI) frequently complicates cardiac surgery, methods to determine AKI risk in patients without underlying kidney disease are lacking. Renal functional reserve (RFR) can be used to measure the capacity of the kidney to increase glomerular filtration rate under conditions of physiological stress and may serve as a functional marker that assesses susceptibility to injury.
The investigators seek to determine whether a reduced preoperative RFR predicts postoperative AKI in patients with normal estimated glomerular filtration rates undergoing elective cardiac surgery. All centres will measure RFR with creatinine clearance, except University Hospital Giessen where in addition iohexol plasma-clearance will be used.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Whether a reduced preoperative RFR ≤15 ml/min/1.73 m2 increased the odds ratio for postoperative acute kidney injury in patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery. [Preoperative]
Renal functional reserve
Secondary Outcome Measures
- determine preoperative RFR accuracy based on receiver operating characteristic curve curve to predict acute kidney injury. [Preoperative]
Renal functional reserve
- To analyze an acute kidney injury risk prediction model based on clinical covariates. [Preoperative]
Renal functional reserve
- Mortality at 30 and 90 days [30 and 90 days after surgery]
Mortality
- Length of stay in intensive care unit and hospital. [Postoperative]
Hospital stay
- Use and duration of renal replacement therapy during hospital stay. [Postoperative]
Renal replacement therapy
- Renal replacement therapy dependence at days 30 and 90. [30 and 90 days after surgery]
Renal replacement therapy
- To evaluate renal function at three months after surgery. [3 months after surgery]
Estimated glomerular filtration rate
- To evaluate whether preoperative RFR is correlated to renal function at three months after surgery. [Preoperative]
Renal functional reserve
- To evaluate whether chronic kidney disease is associated to preoperative RFR. [Preoperative]
Renal functional reserve
