Measure
Furosemide + Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS)
Furosemide 10 mg IV on post-operative day #1 and/or 2, plus ERAS, as described in other arm.
Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS)
ERAS included administration of celecoxib and gabapentin in the pre-operative setting, single-injection intrathecal analgesic administration immediately prior to induction of general anesthesia, post-operative administration of scheduled acetaminophen and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) or tramadol, and discontinuation of IV fluids by 0800 on postoperative day (POD) 1. Intraoperative fluid administration was dependent on the individual anesthesia provider with no unified commitment to either zero balance or goal-directed fluid therapy. Fluid status was determined based on patient weight. Patients were weighed preoperatively and daily post-operatively using either a bed scale or a unit-based scale.

Population: Intention to treat analysis

Acute kidney injury (AKI) refers to an abrupt decrease in kidney function, resulting in the retention of urea and other nitrogenous waste products and in the dysregulation of extracellular volume and electrolytes. The term AKI has largely replaced acute renal failure (ARF), reflecting the recognition that smaller decrements in kidney function that do not result in overt organ failure are of substantial clinical relevance and are associated with increased morbidity and mortality. The AKI experienced by these patients was not considered an adverse event.
