Table 3 Development of AKI POD 1–7 after OLT.
| Overall (N=178) | DBD (N=116) | DCD (N=62) | p-value | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| AKI POD 1–7 (%) | 153 (86) | 95 (82) | 58 (94) | 0.057 |
| No AKI | 25 (14) | 21 (18) | 4 (7) | |
| Stage 1 (%) | 44 (25) | 29 (25) | 15 (24) | |
| Stage 2 (%) | 25 (14) | 17 (15) | 8 (13) | |
| Stage 3 (%) | 84 (47) | 49 (42) | 35 (56) | |
| AKI resolution POD 30, N=152 | 95 (62) | 66 (69) | 29 (50) | 0.032 |
| NA | 1 (1) | 1 (1) | 0 (0) | |
| Categorical variables as count (percentage); NA – not applicable. Patients on KRT POD 0 were not eligible for AKI analysis. Resolution of AKI: absence of AKI criteria and alive on POD 30 in patients with AKI on POD 1–7. AKI – acute kidney injury; DBD – donor after brain death; DCD – donor after cardiac death; POD – postoperative day. | ||||
