Utility of Postoperative Serial Renal Function Monitoring in Patients Undergoing Radical Cystectomy for Urothelial Carcinoma.

Purpose: The aim of this study is to examine the rates of clinical actions (CAs) as a result of serial creatinine (SCr) values and to examine postoperative SCr trends to assess the utility of SCr measurements in radical cystectomy (RC) patients.

Methods: We performed a retrospective chart review using our institution's database on all patients who underwent radical cystectomy for urothelial carcinoma (UC) from 2009 to 2019. Preoperative and all postoperative inpatient creatinine values were recorded.
