Multicenter StudyFactors determining achievement of early postoperative cardiac rehabilitation goal in patients with or without preoperative kidney dysfunction undergoing isolated cardiac surgery.
The aim of this multicenter study was to evaluate the relationship between preoperative kidney function, postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI), and postoperative fluid balance (POFB) with the progress of early postoperative cardiac rehabilitation (CR) in patients undergoing isolated cardiac surgery. ⋯ Preoperative CKD stage correlated significantly with the progress of early postoperative CR after cardiac surgery. Independent determinants of achieving JCS early postoperative CR guideline goal were postoperative AKI in patients with or without CKD, and POFB/PBW only in patients without CKD.
