Renal Doppler Ultrasonography: Bilateral renal Doppler examinations are performed at T0 (one day before surgery after at least 10 minutes of rest), T1 (within the first 60 minutes after postoperative ICU admission), and T2 (6 hours after ICU admission). Renal augmented velocity index and renal resistive index are calculated offline from stored waveforms. Study measurements do not guide clinical care.
Study summary
Acute kidney injury can occur after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). This prospective, single-center observational study will evaluate whether two measurements obtained from renal Doppler ultrasound-the renal augmented velocity index (AVI) and renal resistive index (RRI)-can help predict postoperative acute kidney injury. About 200 adults undergoing elective isolated CABG with cardiopulmonary bypass will have bilateral renal Doppler examinations one day before surgery, within 60 minutes after admission to the intensive care unit, and 6 hours after intensive care unit admission. The primary outcome is acute kidney injury within the first 7 days after surgery, defined according to Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria. Ultrasound measurements will be analyzed offline and will not influence clinical care.
