Open Access Abstract Introduction As patients after cardiac arrest suffer from the consequences of global ischemia reperfusion we aimed to establish the incidence of acute kidney injury AKI in these patients and to investigate its possible association to severe hypoxic brain damage. Methods One hundred and seventy-one patients 135 male mean age - years after cardiac arrest were included in an observational cohort study. Serum creatinine was determined at admission and 24 48 and 72 hours thereafter. Serum levels of neuron-specific enolase NSE were measured 72 hours after admission as a marker of hypoxic brain damage. Clinical outcome was assessed at intensive care unit ICU discharge using the Pittsburgh cerebral performance category CPC . Results AKI as defined by AKI Network criteria occurred in 49 .
