Fluid Management in Cardiac Surgery and the Role of Kidney Monitoring in Reducing Complications

Cardiac surgery is a delicate and complex procedure that often leaves patients vulnerable to complications. One of the most significant risks in cardiac recovery is fluid imbalance, which can lead to acute kidney injury (AKI) and other complications.

Effective fluid management during and after cardiac surgery can significantly influence patient recovery. An accurate understanding of a patient’s kidney function is essential for guiding decisions on fluid balance.

Accuryn’s technology provides clinicians with real-time kidney function data, allowing for responsive adjustments to fluid levels and helping to prevent complications like hospital acquired AKI, which is a known contributor to increased length of stay, as well as increased morbidity and mortality.

For patients recovering from cardiac surgery, real-time kidney monitoring offers a path to a smoother and safer recovery. By addressing fluid imbalance proactively, clinicians can reduce ICU stays and improve patient outcomes.

Integrating kidney monitoring into fluid management practices in cardiac surgery is an essential step for reducing post-operative complications. With Accuryn, clinicians have the tools they need to prioritize kidney health and optimize recovery.
