Abstract

Oliguria after cardiac surgery remains of uncertain clinical significance. Therefore, we investigated the relationship of acute kidney injury severity across urine output and creatinine domains with the risk for major adverse kidney events at 180 days. We aimed to determine the impact of acute kidney injury after cardiac surgery.
