Study Details

Brief summary:

Acute kidney injury occurs in up to 30% of patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Cardiac surgery associated-acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI) is characterized by a sudden and sustained decrease in renal function with insufficient elimination waste products. The problem is that postoperative diagnosis of CSA-AKI is delayed because it relies solely upon the slow and unreliable rise in serum creatinine (SCr) levels that may lead to delayed start in treatment and increased risk of adverse outcomes. We hypothesize that Matrix Metalloproteins (MMPs) -2, -9 and Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) are associated with and earlier detectors of CSA-AKI compared to levels of SCr.
