Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery and is associated with considerable morbidity and mortality. Several studies investigating the association between intraoperative urine output and postoperative AKI have shown conflicting results. Here, we investigated the association of intraoperative oliguria with postoperative AKI in a cohort of patients submitted to elective major abdominal surgery.
Methods: This was a single-center retrospective analysis of adult patients who underwent elective major abdominal surgery from January 2016 to December 2018. AKI was defined according to the serum creatinine criteria of the KDIGO classification. Intraoperative oliguria was defined as urine output of less than 0.5 mL/kg/h. Risk factors were evaluated using multivariate logistic regression analysis.
Results: A total of 165 patients were analyzed. In the first 48 h after surgery the incidence of AKI was 19.4%. Postoperative AKI was associated with hospital mortality (p=0.011). Twenty percent of patients developed intraoperative oliguria. There was no association between preexisting comorbidities and development of intraoperative oliguria. There was no correlation between the type of anesthesia used and occurrence of intraoperative oliguria, but longer anesthesia time was associated with intraoperative oliguria (p=0.007). Higher baseline SCr (p=0.001), need of vasoactive drugs (p=0.007), and NSAIDs use (p=0.022) were associated with development of intraoperative oliguria. Intraoperative oliguria was not associated with development of postoperative AKI (p=0.772), prolonged hospital stays (p=0.176) or in-hospital mortality (p=0.820).
Conclusion: In this cohort of patients we demonstrated that intraoperative oliguria does not predict postoperative AKI in major abdominal surgery.

Article Synopsis
- Oliguria, a condition characterized by decreased urine output, may be misinterpreted as acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients post-surgery, despite being a potential adaptive response during surgery.
- A study analyzing 1,476 patients revealed that 34.4% exhibited oliguria within the first 24 hours after surgery, with certain factors like vasopressor use and non-elective procedures linked to increased risk.
- Although oliguria was associated with a higher rate of AKI development compared to non-oliguric patients, 87.6% of oliguric patients did not show kidney dysfunction based on serum creatinine levels, questioning the accuracy of oliguria as an indicator for AKI.

Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurs commonly after major surgery and is correlated with increased in-hospital morbidity and mortality. There is no consensus on whether intraoperative oliguria affects postoperative AKI. We conducted a meta-analysis to systematically assess the correlation of intraoperative oliguria with postoperative AKI.

Background: Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) has been reported in solid-organ transplant recipients. However, the pooled data regarding TTS after liver transplant remain limited.
Methods: A systematic review was performed through February 2022 using PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Google Scholar to review case reports/series and original studies on liver transplant-associated TTS.

Purpose: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the association between intraoperative oliguria and the risk of postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery.
Methods: The MEDLINE and EMBASE databases were searched up to August 2022 for studies in adult patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery, where the association between intraoperative urine output and the risk of postoperative AKI was assessed. Both randomised and non-randomised studies were eligible for inclusion.
