Occurrence and predictive factors of acute renal injury following hip and knee arthroplasty.
To analyze the incidence of early acute kidney injury (AKI) and perioperative factors following hip and knee joint replacement. ⋯ The study shows age, male, preoperative diabetes, hypertension, and preoperative creatinine were independent predictors for postoperative creatinine elevation. In addition, age, ASA physical status and preoperative diabetes are independent predictors for postoperative AKI in patients undergoing hip and knee joint replacement. Postoperative AKI seems to increase ICU admission and significantly prolonged hospital stay.
