A Clinical Score to Predict Acute Kidney Injury After Heart Valve Replacement
In Brief
An observational study for Acute Kidney Injury. Completed, enrolled 3,392 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common and severe complication of cardiac surgery. The main stay treatment remains preventive with no clear evidence supporting any therapeutic interventions. AKI risk prediction scores are an objective, transparent means of cohort enrichment but are not widely used. The purpose of this analysis was to develop and validate a clinical score including pre-,intra-and post-operative predictors that predicted AKI following heart valve replacement surgery. This prediction score allows identification of patients at high risk of AKI and may support decision-making for protective kidney treatment.
