Summary

This study tests if giving a simple amino acid infusion during heart surgery can prevent acute kidney injury, a common complication. Researchers will measure kidney damage markers in the urine of 130 adults before and after surgery. Half will receive standard care, and the other half will get the amino acid infusion plus standard care.
