Renal failure post-cardiac surgery is associated with an increased in hospital morbidity and mortality. We investigated the effect of new onset renal risk, injury or failure [risk, injury, failure, loss and end-stage kidney disease (RIFLE)] post-coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) on long-term survival, in patients with normal preoperative renal function.
