The Effects of Statin on Postoperative Renal Function in Valvular Heart Surgery: a Randomized, Placebo-controlled Study
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to examine the association between preoperative statin treatment and the incidence of postoperative acute kidney injury(AKI) in patients undergoing valvular heart surgery.

Drug: atrovastatin
Atrovastatin 80mg was administered orally on the evening before surgery. Before anesthesia induction, atrovastatin 40mg was administered orally. And atrovastatin 40mg were administered orally in the evening of postoperative days 0, 1, and 2.
