Study ObjectiveTo determine the association between intraoperative renal tissue desaturation as measured using near-infrared spectroscopy and increased likelihood of developing postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) in older patients undergoing hepatectomy.DesignA multicenter prospective cohort study.SettingThe study was conducted at two tertiary hospitals in China from September 2020 to October 2021.Patients157 older patients (≥ 60 years) undergoing open hepatectomy surgery.Interventions And MeasurementsRenal tissue oxygen saturation was continuously monitored during operation using near-infrared spectroscopy. The exposure of interest was intraoperative renal desaturation, defined as at least 20% relative decline in renal tissue oxygen saturation from baseline. The primary outcome was postoperative AKI, defined using the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes criteria according to the serum creatinine criteria.Main ResultsRenal desaturation occurred in 70 of 157 patients. Postoperative AKI was observed in 23% (16/70) and 8% (7/87) of patients with versus without renal desaturation. Patients with renal desaturation were at higher risk of AKI than patients without renal desaturation (adjusted odds ratio 3.41, 95% confidence interval: 1.12-10.36, p = 0.031). Predictive performance was 65.2% sensitivity and 33.6% specificity for hypotension alone, 69.6% sensitivity and 59.7% specificity for renal desaturation alone, and 95.7% sensitivity and 26.9% specificity for combined use of hypotension and renal desaturation.ConclusionsIntraoperative renal desaturation occurred in >40% in our sample of older patients undergoing liver resection and was associated with increased risk of AKI. Intraoperative near-infrared spectroscopy monitoring enhances the detection of AKI.Copyright © 2023 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
