Abstract
Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is an infrequent but major well-recognised complication of cardiac surgery. Its incidence ranges from 1- 30 %. Technically assisted assessment of volume status before cardiac surgery may be useful to direct intraoperative fluid administration. Using a three-compartment physiologic tissue model, the body composition monitor (BCM, In Body) measures total body fluid volume, extracellular volume, intracellular volume and fluid overload as surplus or deficit of normal volumes.
