BackgroundPostoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) is a serious and distressing complication connected to various adverse outcomes following the surgical operation. Controversy remains regarding the dexmedetomidine’s preventive impact on postoperative AKI. Therefore, this investigation aims to explore the efficiency and safety of dexmedetomidine in preventing AKI after surgical operation.MethodsWe systematically searched electronic databases such as PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library to detect eligible randomized controlled studies that used dexmedetomidine for the prevention of AKI following operation up to April 30, 2023. The main outcome evaluated was AKI incidence. The evidence quality was assessed employing the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation.ResultsThe meta-analysis included 25 trials, including 3,997 individuals. Of these, 2,028 were in the dexmedetomidine group, and 1,969 were in the control group. The result showed that patients administered dexmedetomidine significantly decreased the AKI incidence following surgical operation in contrast to the control group (risk ratio, 0.60; 95% confidence intervals, 0.45–0.78; p |
