Abstract
Prior studies suggest that general anesthesia (GA) is associated with worse cardiopulmonary outcomes after endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR). Patients undergoing EVAR are at a high risk of developing perioperative acute kidney injury (AKI), and the relationship between anesthetic technique and AKI in these patients is not well-characterized. The authors sought to determine if anesthetic technique affected the risk of AKI in patients undergoing EVAR.
