Abstract

Abstract : Background . Etiology of acute kidney disease (AKD) after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) was considered as multifactorial. However, the role of early postoperative volume supplement in AKD rate has not been investigated. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the incidence and risk factors of AKD in patients with early volume supplement following TKA. Methods . This was a retrospective study with 458 patients who underwent unilateral TKA. All the patients received 6% tetrastarch, 7.5ml/kg, early in the postoperative period. Postoperative AKD was defined as the postoperative creatinine level ≥ 1.5 times compared with preoperative data. Potential variables associated with AKD were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression model to identify the AKD risk factors in TKA patients after early postoperative volume supplement. Results . The AKD rate was 3.3% (15 patients) in all patients. Age (OR = 1.09; P = .031) and coronary artery disease (CAD) (OR = 3.63; P = .034) were associated with increased risk of development of postoperative AKD. Other comorbidities as hypertension, diabetes, and CKD were not statistically significant risk factors. Conclusion . Our study demonstrated that age and CAD were independent risk factors of AKD in TKA patients. However, the common risk factors as hypertension, diabetes, and CKD were not significantly associated with AKD after TKA if early postoperative supplement of tetrastarch is administered .
