Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Incidence and Severity of Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) in the First 48 Hours After Cardiopulmonary Pulmonary Bypass (CPB)
Incidence and severity of AKI in the first 48 hours after CPB, evaluated based on creatinine levels at CPB, 24 \& 48h after CPB and urine output up to 48h.
From start of CPB through 48 hours after CPB
Secondary Outcomes (5)
Summary of Health Resource Utilization: ICU Duration (Hours)
From start of CPB through discharge, average of 8.9 days.
Summary of Health Resource Utilization: Post-Op Hospital Stay: Date of Discharge - Date of ICU Admission
From start of CPB through discharge, average of 8.9 days.
Summary of Health Resource Utilization: Number of Patients on Vasopressor Medication
From start of CPB through discharge, average of 8.9 days.
Summary of Health Resource Utilization: Duration of Continuous Intra-op to Post-op Ventilator/ Mechanical Support Use
From start of CPB through discharge, average of 8.9 days.
Initiation of Renal Replacement Therapy
Up to 48 hours after CPB
