AbstractThe effect of intraoperative tidal volume (VT) on clinical outcomes after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) has not been studied. The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between intraoperative tidal volume (VT) and acute kidney injury (AKI ) after OPCAB. A total of 1049 patients who underwent OPCAB between January 2009 and December 2018 were analyzed. Patients were divided into high (>8 ml/kg) and low VT (≤8 ml/kg) groups (intraoperative median VT standardized to predicted body weight). The data were fitted using a multivariable logistic regression model. Subgroup analyses were performed according to age, sex, comorbidities, preoperative laboratory variables, operative profiles, and Cleveland score. The risk of AKI was not significantly higher in the high than the low VT group (OR: 1.15, 95% CI: 0.80-1.66; P = .459); however, subgroup analyses revealed that a high VT may increase the risk of AKI in males, patients aged < 70 years, with chronic kidney disease, a left ventricular ejection fraction < 35%, or a long duration of surgery. High intraoperative VTs were not associated with an increased risk of AKI after OPCAB. Nonetheless, it may increase the risk of AKI in certain subgroups, such as younger age, male sex, reduced renal and cardiac function, and a long surgery time.Copyright © 2022 the Author(s).
