We read with great interest the recent paper by Oh et al. [1] investigating the association between perioperative hyperchloremia and postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) in a large population of postsurgical patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). One of the conclusions was that a substantial perioperative increase in serum chloride levels may reflect a higher risk of AKI in patients with moderate-to-severe chronic kidney disease (CKD) [1]. …
