The effects of perioperative intravenous fluid administration strategy on renal outcomes in patients undergoing cardiovascular surgery: An observational study.

Medicine (Baltimore) 2019 Februrary
We assessed whether perioperative fluid management with balanced solutions and a limited volume of hydroxyethyl starch (renal-protective fluid management [RPF] strategy) could improve renal outcomes after cardiovascular surgery.For this retrospective observational study, we evaluated 2613 patients who underwent cardiovascular surgery from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2013. The control group were given intravenous fluids with saline-based solutions and unlimited volumes of hydroxyethyl starch solutions and the RPF group were given intravenous fluids with RPF. The primary outcome was the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) and chronic dialysis within 12 months after cardiovascular surgery. Multivariable regression and propensity analyses were performed to evaluate the association between perioperative fluid management strategy and postoperative renal outcomes.Postoperative AKI and chronic dialysis occurred in 213 (21.2%) and 5 (0.5%) patients in the RPF group compared with 696 (43.2%) and 38 (2.4%) patients in the control group, respectively. After adjustment, the RPF group was linked to a decreased risk of postoperative AKI, severe AKI, persistent AKI, use of renal replacement therapy, chronic kidney disease, chronic dialysis, and a shorter postoperative extubation time and intensive care unit, and hospital stay duration.The perioperative fluid management strategy with balanced solutions and a limited volume of hydroxyethyl starch was related to improved acute and 1-year renal and clinical outcomes after cardiovascular surgery. These findings indicate the need for further definitive clinical trials on perioperative fluid management strategy.
