Effects of Balanced Versus Saline-based Solutions on Acute Kidney Injury in Off-pump Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

In patients undergoing off-pump bypass surgery with a normal estimated glomerular filtration rate, the intraoperative balanced solution-based chloride-restrictive intravenous fluid administration strategy did not decrease the rate of postoperative acute kidney injury compared with the saline-based chloride-liberal intravenous fluid administration strategy.
