To evaluate the differences between serum cystatin C based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFRcys), serum creatinine based eGFR (eGFRcreat) and measured glomerular filtration rate (mGFR) in subjects at high risk for acute kidney injury (AKI) approximately 90 days following cardiac surgery
This is an open label, single-visit study to evaluate the relationship between mGFR and eGFR based either on serum creatinine (eGFRcreat) or cystatin C (eGFRcys) approximately 90 days following cardiac surgery. No investigational study drug will be administered.
Study Type
OBSERVATIONAL
Enrollment
16
Iohexol 5mL injection (300 mg iodine/mL) will be administered to all subjects to determine mGFR by iohexol clearance

Correlation between eGFR and mGFR
The primary measure will be the comparison of the P(30) and P(10) between eGFR based on serum cystatin C (eGFRcys) and eGFR based on serum creatinine (eGFRcreat). P(30) and P(10) are defined as the percentage of subjects whose eGFR is within 30% (10%) of the iohexol-based mGFR.
Time frame: at 90 days post cardiac surgery
