Effect of Inhalational Anesthetics on Acute Kidney Injury
نویسندگان
چکیده
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a serious complication associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Total incidence of AKI in hospitalized patients is 1%-5%. As many as 30% of these patients develop AKI in the perioperative period, which is associated with anesthesia and surgery. Despite scientific advances and improved surgery techniques, as well as treatment in intensive care units, no significant decrease in AKI incidence has been achieved. To change this outcome, it is important to identify patients at risk of AKI and prevent its occurrence. Correct selection of anesthetic drugs during general anesthesia, adjusted to the individual needs of patients, also influences the overall outcome of treatment. Nowadays, inhalational anesthetics are not considered nephrotoxic. The more so, inhalational anesthetics have a strong and direct protective effect on many organs through preconditioning and postconditioning. New studies have shown that sevoflurane diminishes ischemia/ reperfusion kidney injury and has an anti-inflammatory effect, thus having the potential to reduce the occurrence of AKI. Given the incidence of AKI in the perioperative period, as well as new findings about anesthetics, the issue of anesthetic selection during general anesthesia might be of crucial importance for the final outcome of treatment.

متن کاملInhalational anesthesia for organ procurement: potential indications for administering inhalational anesthesia in the brain-dead organ donor.
Organs needed for transplantation far outweigh their availability. There is minimal research regarding perioperative care of the brain-dead organ donor during the procurement procedure. Current research attributes a great deal of organ damage to autonomic or sympathetic storm that occurs during brain death. Literature searches were performed with the terms brain death, organ donor, organ procur...
متن کاملHepatotoxicity of Halogenated Inhalational Anesthetics
CONTEXT Halogenated inhalational anesthetics are currently the most common drugs used for the induction and maintenance of general anesthesia. Postoperative hepatic injury has been reported after exposure to these agents. Based on much evidence, mechanism of liver toxicity is more likely to be immunoallergic. The objective of this review study was to assess available studies on hepatotoxicity o...

Isoflurane, the most widely used inhalational anesthetic, releases inorganic fluoride during its metabolism by the cytochrome P450 system. Recent experimental data indicate that when cultured proximal tubular cells are exposed to inorganic fluoride, they become relatively resistant to myoglobin- and ATP depletion-mediated attack. The present study was undertaken to assess whether isoflurane ane...
