    Abstract Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common after cardiac surgery. To date, there are no specific pharmacological therapies. In this review, we summarise the existing evidence for prevention and management of cardiac surgery-associated AKI and outline areas for future research. Preoperatively, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers should be withheld and nephrotoxins should be avoided to reduce the risk. Intraoperative strategies include goal-directed therapy with individualised blood pressure management and administration of balanced fluids, the use of circuits with biocompatible coatings, application of minimally invasive extracorporeal circulation, and lung protective ventilation. Postoperative management should be in accordance with current KDIGO AKI recommendations.

    Abstract Abstract Background High-flow nasal therapy is a non-invasive form of respiratory support that delivers low-level, flow dependent positive airway pressure. The device can be better tolerated by patients than alternatives such as continuous positive airway pressure. The primary objective is to determine if prophylactic high-flow nasal therapy after tracheal extubation can result in an increase in the number of days alive and at home within the first 90 days after surgery, when compared with standard oxygen therapy. The co-primary objective is to estimate the incremental cost-effectiveness and cost-utility of high-flow nasal therapy vs standard oxygen therapy at 90 days, from the view-point of the public sector, the health service and patients. Methods This is an adaptive, multicentre, international parallel-group, randomised controlled trial with embedded cost-effectiveness analysis comparing the use of high-flow nasal therapy with control in patients at high risk of respiratory complications following cardiac surgery. Participants will be randomised before tracheal extubation and allocated either high-flow nasal therapy or standard oxygen therapy for a minimum of 16 h immediately post extubation. Participants will be followed up until 90 days after surgery. The total sample size needed to detect a 2-day increase in DAH90 with 90% power with an intention to treat analysis is 850 patients. The adaptive design includes an interim sample size re-estimation which will provide protection against deviations from the original sample size assumptions made from the single-centre pilot study and will allow for a maximum sample size increase to 1152 patients. Discussion Evidence to support routine use of high-flow nasal therapy will inform the development of effective enhanced recovery care bundles. Reducing complications should reduce length of stay and re-admission to hospital and provide an important focus for cost reduction. However; high-quality studies evaluating the clinical and cost effectiveness of high-flow nasal ...

    Abstract Abstract Background Recent experimental evidence shows that sevoflurane can reduce the inflammatory response during cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. However, this observation so far has not been assessed in an adequately powered randomized controlled trial. Methods We plan to include one hundred patients undergoing elective coronary artery bypass graft with cardiopulmonary bypass who will be randomized to receive either volatile anesthetics during cardiopulmonary bypass or total intravenous anesthesia. The primary endpoint of the study is to assess the inflammatory response during cardiopulmonary bypass by measuring PMN-elastase serum levels. Secondary endpoints include serum levels of other pro-inflammatory markers (IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, TNFα), anti-inflammatory cytokines (TGFβ and IL-10), and microRNA expression in peripheral blood to achieve possible epigenetic mechanisms in this process. In addition clinical endpoints such as presence of major complications in the postoperative period and length of hospital and intensive care unit stay will be assessed. Discussion The trial may determine whether adding volatile anesthetic during cardiopulmonary bypass will attenuate the inflammatory response. Trial registration ClinicalTrials.gov NCT02672345 . Registered on February 2016 and updated on June 2020.

    Abstract Background: Novel cardioprotective strategies are required to improve clinical outcomes in higher-risk patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) with or without valve surgery. Remote ischaemic preconditioning (RIPC) in which brief episodes of non-lethal ischaemia and reperfusion are applied to the arm or leg has been demonstrated to reduce perioperative myocardial injury (PMI) following CABG with or without valve surgery. Objective: To investigate whether or not RIPC can improve clinical outcomes in this setting in the Effect of Remote Ischaemic preconditioning on Clinical outcomes in patients undergoing Coronary Artery bypass graft surgery (ERICCA) study in patients undergoing CABG surgery. Design: Multicentre, double-blind, randomised sham controlled trial. Setting: The study was conducted across 30 cardiothoracic centres in the UK between March 2010 and March 2015. Participants: Eligible patients were higher-risk adult patients (aged > 18 years of age; additive European System for Cardiac Operative Risk of ≥ 5) undergoing on-pump CABG with or without valve surgery with blood cardioplegia. Interventions: Patients were randomised to receive either RIPC (four 5-minute inflations/deflations of a standard blood pressure cuff placed on the upper arm) or the sham control procedure (simulated RIPC protocol) following anaesthetic induction and prior to surgical incision. Anaesthetic management and perioperative care were not standardised. Main outcome measures: The combined primary end point was the rate of major adverse cardiac and cerebral events comprising cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, coronary revascularisation and stroke within 12 months of randomisation. Secondary end points included perioperative myocardial and acute kidney injury (AKI), intensive care unit and hospital stay, inotrope score, left ventricular ejection fraction, changes in quality of life and exercise tolerance. Results: In total, 1612 patients (sham control group, n = 811; RIPC group, n = 801) were randomised in ...

    Abstract Introduction Previous studies demonstrated that the implementation of the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) guideline-based bundle, consisting of different supportive measures in patients at high risk for acute kidney injury (AKI), might reduce rate and severity of AKI after surgery. However, the effects of the care bundle in broader population of patients undergoing surgery require confirmation.Methods and analysis The BigpAK-2 trial is an international, randomised, controlled, multicentre trial. The trial aims to enrol 1302 patients undergoing major surgery who are subsequently admitted to the intensive care or high dependency unit and are at high-risk for postoperative AKI as identified by urinary biomarkers (tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 2*insulin like growth factor binding protein 7 (TIMP-2)*IGFBP7)). Eligible patients will be randomised to receive either standard of care (control) or a KDIGO-based AKI care bundle (intervention). The primary endpoint is the incidence of moderate or severe AKI (stage 2 or 3) within 72 hours after surgery, according to the KDIGO 2012 criteria. Secondary endpoints include adherence to the KDIGO care bundle, occurrence and severity of any stage of AKI, change in biomarker values during 12 hours after initial measurement of (TIMP-2)*(IGFBP7), number of free days of mechanical ventilation and vasopressors, need for renal replacement therapy (RRT), duration of RRT, renal recovery, 30-day and 60-day mortality, intensive care unit length-of-stay and hospital length-of-stay and major adverse kidney events. An add-on study will investigate blood and urine samples from recruited patients for immunological functions and kidney damage.Ethics and dissemination The BigpAK-2 trial was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Medical Faculty of the University of Münster and subsequently by the corresponding Ethics Committee of the participating sites. A study amendment was approved subsequently. In the UK, the trial was adopted as an NIHR portfolio study. Results will ...
