Does aprotinin increase the risk of renal failure in cardiac surgery patients? Non-Randomized Retrospective Multicenter Observational study 66 centers / 16 countries 1374 Patients “Control” / 1295 Patients Aprotinin Increased risk of “Renal Event” by 2.3 - 2.6 times; p < 0.001 Conclusion: “Continued use [of Aprotinin] is not prudent”
Hypothesis Aprotinin (Trasylol)is an independent risk factor for new onset, dialysis-dependent renal failure (ARF) following open heart surgery.
Assessment of Pre-op ARF Risk: CCF Risk Model Thakar, et al:J AM Soc Nephrol 16:162-8, 2005 31,677 OHS patients: 1992 - 2002 C-Index = 0.82 • Gender • CHF • LVEF < 35% • Preop IABP • COPD • IDDM • Redo OHS • Emergency Surgery • Surgery type • Preop Creatinine

Aprotinin as a Risk Factor for ARF Key: U = Univariate;M = Multivariable AP CCF + AP CCF + PRBC CCF (No PRBC)
Summary Aprotinin does NOT independently increase the risk of postoperative ARF Following CT surgery. Increasing PRBC use is independently related to an increased risk of postoperative ARF Aprotinin lowers predicted PRBC requirements CCF risk model for ARF was validated, but further postoperative ARF risk assessment could be enhanced with the addition of #PRBC data to the model
Conclusions The implication of aprotinin as a causal factor for postoperative ARF was incorrect and premature. Previously published results were likely faulty due to the absence of PRBC data in the Magnano study. All efforts to minimize PRBC usage should be undertaken to prevent higher occurrence rates of ARF. All subsequent analyses of postoperative ARF should adjust for PRBC usage, as this is a highly significant risk factor for the subsequent development of ARF. The FDA should consider withdrawal of aprotinin advisory warnings based on these data.
