eGFR = estimated glomerular filtration rate, CABG = coronary artery bypass graft, pRBC = packed RBC.
Euroscore calculated from modified variables defined according to data available within the medical record and institutional usage to reasonably reflect Euroscore definitions.
eGFR calculated according to the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation.
Acute kidney injury defined over 7 days postoperatively according to creatinine-based Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes practice guidelines.
