Advancing Perioperative Risk Stratification: Predicting Acute Kidney Injury Following Lung Transplantation

Highlight

  • Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurs frequently after lung transplantation, adversely impacting patient outcomes.
  • Novel perioperative prediction models were developed using comprehensive preoperative and early postoperative variables.
  • Postoperative models incorporating procedure duration, oxygenation ratios, and vasopressor dosage show superior accuracy for AKI and renal replacement therapy (RRT) prediction.
  • These models may guide early risk stratification and targeted interventions to mitigate renal complications after lung transplantation.
