Administration of HES in elderly patients undergoing hip arthroplasty under spinal anesthesia is not associated with an increase in renal injury.

ABSTRACT: Hydroxyethyl starch (HES) is applied to achieve volume expansion during surgery; however, nephrotoxicity may be induced in patients with sepsis. Simultaneously, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and IL-18 have been illustrated as pivotal indicators to diagnose the acute kidney injury (AKI) early. This multi-center, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study aimed to investigate whether 6% HES 130/0.4 administration caused postoperative AKI, which can be revealed by urinary and plasma NGAL and IL-18 estimations in elderly patients with normal renal function undergoing hip arthroplasty under spinal anesthesia.120 ASA I-III, patients aged >65 y undergoing hip arthroplasty under spinal anesthesia randomly received 6% HES 130/0.4 or sodium lactate Ringer's solution 7.5 mL/kg during the first hour of surgery. 118 patients completed the study. Blood pressure, NGAL concentrations, IL18, ?2 micro-albumin and albumin in urine and creatinine, NGAL and IL-18 in plasma were repeatedly measured before, during, and after surgery.The groups were balanced in mean arterial pressure, urine and plasma NGAL, plasma IL-18 and creatinine, urine ?2 microalbumin and albumin (P?>?0.05). Urine IL-18 was dramatically elevated in both groups after surgery (P??0.05).Elderly patients undergoing surgery under spinal anesthesia are a high-risk population in AKI. These patients with normal renal function receiving a spinal anesthesia for a short duration surgery would not develop AKI when 500 mL (small volume) HES is infused.Identifier: NCT02361736 .
