Global Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) Overview

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a rapid, potentially reversible decline in renal function characterised by abrupt reduction in glomerular filtration rate, azotaemia, and frequently oliguria, classified by KDIGO criteria into three severity stages based on serum creatinine rise and urine output thresholds. The pathophysiology encompasses prerenal — haemodynamic insufficiency from volume depletion, sepsis, or cardiorenal syndrome — intrinsic renal — tubular injury from ischaemia or nephrotoxins, glomerulonephritis, or interstitial nephritis — and postrenal — obstructive uropathy — mechanisms, with acute tubular necrosis representing the most prevalent intrinsic aetiology. Patients present with declining urine output, fluid overload, electrolyte disturbances — hyperkalaemia, metabolic acidosis, hyponatraemia — and uraemic symptoms in severe cases. Diagnosis integrates serum creatinine and urine output trajectory, urinalysis with microscopy, renal ultrasonography, and targeted investigations addressing aetiology — including complement, ANCA, anti-GBM antibodies, and renal biopsy where indicated. Management is predominantly supportive — optimising haemodynamics, eliminating nephrotoxins, managing fluid balance, correcting electrolyte derangements, and addressing the underlying cause; renal replacement therapy is instituted for refractory hyperkalaemia, metabolic acidosis, volume overload, or uraemic complications. Emerging biomarkers — NGAL, KIM-1, and TIMP-2/IGFBP-7 — facilitate earlier AKI detection and risk stratification. Prognosis varies with aetiology and severity; survivors carry elevated risks of chronic kidney disease progression, cardiovascular events, and recurrent AKI, necessitating structured nephrology follow-up and patient-centred long-term renal surveillance.
