Association between intraoperative oliguria and postoperative acute kidney injury in non-cardiac surgical patients: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

This study demonstrated a significant association between intraoperative oliguria and the risk of postoperative AKI, regardless of the definitions of oliguria or AKI used. Further prospective and multi-centre studies using standardised definitions of intraoperative oliguria are required to define the thresholds of oliguria and establish strategies to minimise the risk of AKI.
