Relationship between postoperative acute kidney injury and preoperative dehydration in patients undergoing surgery for gastrointestinal tumor / 中华麻醉学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate the relationship between postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) and preoperative dehydration in the patients undergoing surgery for gastrointestinal tumor.Methods:A total of 231 patients, of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical statusⅠ or Ⅱ, aged≥18 yr, undergoing elective surgery for gastrointestinal tumor with general anesthesia, were enrolled.Preoperative dehydration index was calculated according to preoperative urine color, specific gravity, osmotic pressure and creatinine.Preoperative dehydration was defined as dehydration index≥3.5.AKI was defined according to the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes criteria.Logistic regression analysis was conducted to assess the association between preoperative dehydration and postoperative AKI.Results:Of the 231 patients who met our inclusion criteria, 27 (11.7%) developed postoperative AKI, and 13 patients (48.1%) had preoperative dehydration among the patients developed postoperative AKI.The results of logistic analysis showed that preoperative dehydration was an independent risk factor for postoperative AKI in the patients undergoing surgery for gastrointestinal tumor ( OR=4.03, 95% confidence interval 1.72-9.39). Conclusion:Preoperative dehydration is an independent risk factor for postoperative AKI in the patients undergoing surgery for gastrointestinal tumor.
