Assessment, Serial Evaluation, and Subsequent Sequelae in Acute Kidney Injury
We previously showed that children undergoing cardiac surgery are at high risk for long-term chronic kidney disease (CKD) and hypertension, although postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) is not a risk factor for worse long-term kidney outcomes. We evaluated if renal injury biomarkers 5 years after cardiac surgery are associated with postoperative AKI or long-term CKD and hypertension.
