A Preoperative Prediction Model for Acute Kidney Injury After Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting.

Article C Peer reviewed Observational

Key takeaways

This study built a tool to predict kidney injury after heart surgery. It looked at 1,640 people who had a specific type of bypass. About 18% of them developed sudden kidney damage. This shows a link between the surgery and kidney stress, but it is not proof of cause.
