Secondary analysis of data from the Safe Pediatric Euglycemia after Cardiac Surgery trial of tight glycemic control versus standard care.Setting
Pediatric cardiac ICUs at University of Michigan, C.S. Mott Children's Hospital, and Boston Children's Hospital.Patients

None.Measurements and main results
Cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury was assigned using the Acute Kidney Injury Network criteria with the modification that a greater than 0.1 mg/dL increase in serum creatinine was required to assign cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury. We explored associations between cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury and tight glycemic control and clinical outcomes. Of 799 patients studied, cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury occurred in 289 patients (36%), most of whom had stage II or III disease (72%). Cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury rates were similar between treatment groups (36% vs 36%; p = 0.99). Multivariable modeling showed that patients with cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury were younger (p = 0.002), underwent more complex surgery (p = 0.005), and had longer cardiopulmonary bypass times (p = 0.002). Cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury was associated with longer mechanical ventilation and ICU and hospital stays and increased mortality. Patients at University of Michigan had higher rates of cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury compared with Boston Children's Hospital patients (66% vs 15%; p < 0.001), but University of Michigan patients with cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury had shorter time to extubation and ICU and hospital stays compared with Boston Children's Hospital patients.Conclusions
Tight glycemic control did not reduce the cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury rate in this trial cohort. We observed significant differences in cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury rates between the two study sites, and there was a differential effect of cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury on clinical outcomes by site. These findings warrant further investigation to identify causal variation in perioperative practices that affect cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury epidemiology.
