Objectives To investigate the incidence, risk factors and outcomes of acute kidney injury (AKI) in elderly patients undergoing abdominal surgery. Methods A retrospective study exploring the incidence of AKI in patients older than 75 years within 48 hours after abdominal surgery was conducted. Patients' preoperative characteristics, intraoperative management including medication and outcomes were evaluated for associations with AKI using a logistic regression model.Results During the 2.5-year period, a total of 409 abdominal surgeries were performed. Both pre- and post-operative SCr measurements were available for 329 (80.4%) cases. 26 patients (7.9%) developed AKI, of whom 25 (7.6%) and 1 (0.3%) reached the AKI stages 1 and 2 respectively. Older age (83.0 vs 80.4 years; p=0.002), preoperative liver function damage represented by AST (47.5 vs 21.0 IU/L; p=0.023), intraoperative combined administration of hydroxyethyl starch(HES) and furosemide (15.38% vs 1.65%; p=0.003) were independent risk factors for the development of postoperative AKI. Furthermore, AKI patients had significantly longer ICU stay (3 vs 0 days; p |
