BACKGROUND: Both preoperative left ventricular dysfunction (LVD) and acute kidney injury (AKI) in the postoperative period are independently associated with mortality. We evaluated the prevalence and prognostic implications of AKI in a cohort of vascular surgery patients. METHODS: Before vascular surgery, 1,158 patients were screened for LVD. Development of AKI, defined by RIFLE classification, was detected by serial serum creatinine measurements at days 1 to 3 after surgery. Primary end point was cardiovascular mortality during a median follow-up of 2.2 years (interquartile range [IQR] 1.0-4.0). RESULTS: LVD was present in 558 patients (48%), and 120 patients (10%) developed postoperative AKI. Subjects with LVD developed postoperative AKI more often than patients without LVD (8% vs. 13%, p=0.01). Patients were categorized as (i) no LVD, without AKI (n=551, 48%), (ii) LVD without AKI (n=487, 42%), (iii) no LVD, with AKI (n=49, 4%) and (iv) LVD with AKI (n=71/6%). Patients with LVD prior to surgery who developed postoperative AKI had the highest cardiovascular mortality risk (hazard ratio = 4.9; 95% confidence interval, 2.9-8.2). CONCLUSION: Patients with preoperatively LVD have an increased risk of developing AKI after vascular surgery. The occurrence of AKI in patients with LVD has an incremental predictive value toward cardiovascular mortality risk during long-term follow-up. |
