Cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (AKI) is a well-known factor influencing patients' long-term morbidity and mortality. Several prediction models of AKI requiring dialysis (AKI-D) have been developed. Only a few direct comparisons of these models have been done. Recently, a new, more uniform and objective definition of AKI has been proposed [Kidney Disease: Improve Global Outcomes (KDIGO)-AKI]. The performance of these prediction models has not yet been tested.
