Official Title: Effect of a Kidney Bundle on the Occurence of Postoperative Acute Kidney Injury in Patients at Risk
Brief Summary: Postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) refers to increased mortality and morbidity in patients after non-cardiac surgery. The Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO)-guidelines recommend a bundle of procedures to prevent the occurrence of AKI: A protocol for the improvement of the hemodynamic situation and a standardized proceeding in hemodynamic monitoring, consequent avoidance of nephrotoxic substances, regular measurement of creatinine and urine output, as well as normoglycemia. The primary goal is to determine if the consequent application of the KDIGO-bundle leads to a prevention of the occurrence of AKI in patients at risk after non-cardiac surgery.
