Prediction of the severity of acute kidney injury after on-pump cardiac surgery.
On-pump cardiac surgery is associated with a high risk of acute kidney injury (AKI), which can substantially affect risk of mortality and morbidity depending on its severity. Current methods are limited in predicting AKI severity. This study aimed to develop and validate a model to predict AKI severity after on-pump cardiac surgery. ⋯ The prediction model incorporating 10 predictors may be useful for predicting severity of AKI after on-pump cardiac surgery.
