Brief Summary
Previous studies (1-5) have demonstrated that oxygen delivery (DO2) and carbon dioxide production (VCO2) during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) are associated with renal outcome in cardiac surgery. The critical value for DO2 is around 262 - 272 mL/min/m2, and the correspondent critical value of DO2/VCO2 ratio is around 5.0. Patients with nadir DO2 and DO2/VCO2 ratio below these critical levels have an increased incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) after cardiac operations. These observations offer an interpretation for the well-known deleterious effects of excessive hemodilution during CPB, supported by many studies where an association between nadir hematocrit (HCT) on CPB and bad outcomes (especially renal) was found (6-8). It is reasonable to hypothesize that a low oxygen delivery may determine an ischemic damage to the kidney, that due to its peculiar circulation is particularly susceptible to a decrease in the oxygen supply. However, there is no evidence that a strategy directed towards the specific goal of avoiding critical values of DO2 during CPB may actually decrease the postoperative AKI rate. The present study is designed to verify the hypothesis that a strategy based on a goal-directed perfusion, aimed to avoid a nadir DO2 below the critical threshold, is effective in limiting the postoperative AKI rate.
