The use of iohexol as a marker to measure glomerular filtration rate in the non-steady state of patients undergoing robot-assisted colorectal surgery
Jakobsen, Kjellbjørn (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2021-05-23)Introduction Perioperative acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is routinely used to monitor renal function. This is an imprecise tool in the non-steady state condition and much kidney function can be lost before it is detectable by the eGFR method. A continuous low-dose infusion of iohexol has been proposed as ...
