Abstract
Postoperative renal dysfunction (PORD) is a critical complication following
major vascular surgery, associated with elevated morbidity and mortality. Characterized by
an acute decline in kidney function after surgery, it complicates recovery and prolongs
hospitalization. The occurrence and severity of PORD are influenced by preoperative health
status, intraoperative management, and postoperative care. Limited local data exists on the
predictors of PORD within the high-risk major vascular surgery population at Tikur Anbessa
Specialized Hospital (TASH) in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Identifying these predictors is crucial
for developing targeted interventions to mitigate risk and improve patient outcomes
