Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a syndrome that has been receiving considerable attention as a common risk in cardiac surgeries, which has consequences for short- and long-term survival implications, even for those who do not progress to renal failure. There have been limited studies in the Middle East, and specifically in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). Therefore, our study aimed to identify the prevalence of and risk factors for AKIs following adult cardiac interventions during 2010-2020 at the King Abdulaziz University Hospital (KAUH), Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Methods Setting and Design: A retrospective medical record review was conducted among all the adult patients who underwent cardiac interventions and developed AKIs between 2010 and 2020. Google forms were used to extract the data from the hospital records. About statistical analysis binary logistic regression analyses, relative risks (RRs), and confidence intervals (CI) were used to determine the associations among the variables. Results After applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 564 patients were included. Their baseline demographic, clinical, biological, and operative characteristics were analyzed. AKIs developed in 110 (19.5%) patients and patients with diabetes were more likely to develop AKIs ( |
