Why Study AKI after Cardiac Surgery? • Over a million adults and 25,000 children undergo cardiac surgery with CPB in the US each year • Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) occurs in 30-40% of adult and pediatric patients after CPB • Pediatric patients- particularly infants- may be especially vulnerable • Planned period of renal ischemia • Pediatric patients free of other “co-morbidities” that may confound therapies
Impact of CS-AKI • Independently associated with: • Increased mortality • Increased length of postoperative ventilation • Longer hospital and ICU lengths of stay • Increased hospital costs • Worse ventricular function on discharge echo • Lower long-term quality of life
430 infants <90d undergoing CPB-- 52% developed postoperative AKI
Long-term effects of CS-AKI in pediatrics Growth (height) impairment Increased health care utilization Trend towards higher long-term mortality Unknown long-term risk of CKD Brown et al, Ann Thorac Surg, 2010;90:1142-1149 Morgan et al, J Pediatr, 2012 Aug 7 [Epub]
Mechanisms of Injury during CPB Ischemia/reperfusion injury Inflammation Oxidative stress RBC injury Coagulopathy Loss of pulsatile flow Microembolism Hypothermia Altered hemodynamics

Defining the “At Risk Population” Several Scoring systems have been developed/studied: CICSS (Continuing Improvement in Cardiac Surgery Study) Cleveland Clinic STS Bedside Risk MCSPI (Multicenter study of perioperative ischemia) AKICS (AKI after Cardiac Surgery) NNECDSG (Northern New England Cardiovascular Disease Study Group) Reported AUC’s 0.72-0.84
Genetics and AKI Search for genetic polymorphisms the predispose to AKI Majority are SNPs associated with gene products that contribute to: Proinflammatory state Increased response to oxidative stress Impaired renal vascular responsiveness
