Abstract
Abstract Background Development of acute kidney injury (AKI) in invasively managed patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is associated with a markedly increased mortality risk. Different definitions of AKI are in use, leading to varying prevalence and outcome measurements. The aim of the present study is to analyze an ACS population undergoing coronary angiography for differences in AKI prevalence and outcome using four established AKI definitions. Methods 944 patients (30% female) were enrolled in a prospective registry between 2003 and 2005 with 6-month all-cause mortality as outcome measure. Four established AKI definitions were used: an increase in serum creatinine (sCR) ≥ 1.5 fold, ≥ 0.3 mg/dl, and ≥ 0.5 mg/dl and a decrease in eGFR > 25% from baseline (AKIN 1, AKIN 2, CIN, and RIFLE definition groups, respectively). Results AKI rates varied widely between the different groups. Using the CIN definition, AKI frequency was lowest (4.4%), whereas it was highest if the RIFLE definition was applied (13.2%). AKIN 2 displayed a twofold higher AKI prevalence compared with AKIN 1 (10.2% vs. 5.3% (p
