Acute Kidney Injury (AKI)
Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is a sudden decline in kidney function, characterized by an increase in serum creatinine levels and a decrease in urine output. It can result from a variety of causes, including prerenal factors (such as dehydration or shock), intrinsic renal factors (such as glomerulonephritis or acute tubular injury), and postrenal factors (such as urinary obstruction).
Early diagnosis
Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial to prevent progression to chronic kidney disease. Diagnostic evaluation includes assessing patient history, conducting laboratory tests (e.g., serum creatinine, electrolyte levels), and imaging studies to identify the underlying cause. Treatment focuses on addressing the cause of AKI, which may involve fluid resuscitation, managing electrolyte imbalances, and adjusting medications. In severe cases, patients may require dialysis to support kidney function temporarily while the underlying issue is addressed. Continuous monitoring and supportive care are essential to ensure recovery and prevent long-term complications. Prompt and effective management of AKI can improve outcomes and restore kidney function.
