Abstract

Cardiac Surgery Associated Acute Kidney Injury (CS-AKI) is a serious complication that occurs in patients following cardiac surgery. It is characterized by the rapid decline in kidney function, leading to potential long-term kidney damage or even kidney failure. CS-AKI is a significant health concern, as it not only prolongs hospital stays and recovery time but also increases the risk of mortality. This study, conducted as a prospective observational study, aimed to investigate the relationship between perioperative blood product use and the incidence of postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) in infants and young children undergoing cardiac surgery. It examined the perioperative use of these blood products and its association with the occurrence of AKI. The findings of this study revealed a significant association between the use of red blood cell suspension and platelets and the development of postoperative AKI. This suggests that the administration of these blood products during cardiac surgery may increase the risk of kidney injury in infants and young children. However, it is important to note that the study did not find a statistically significant association between plasma transfusion volume and the incidence of AKI. This suggests that while the use of certain blood products may contribute to the risk of AKI, the volume of plasma transfused does not seem to have a significant impact. The findings of this study provide valuable insights into the perioperative management of infants and young children undergoing cardiac surgery. It underscores the importance of carefully considering the use of blood products during surgery and taking necessary measures to minimize the risk of AKI.
