Renal angina.
Small elevations in serum creatinine may reflect significant kidney damage and be associated with poor patient outcomes, thus rendering creatinine to be a late marker of acute kidney injury (AKI). AKI researchers refer to the AKI biomarker quest as the "search for the renal troponin I," implying that such putative earlier AKI biomarker use could allow for earlier intervention. We consider the a...

متن کاملRenal angina: right concept...Wrong name?
AKI is the loss of kidney function over a period of hours to days. Although the definition is easily stated, operationalizing it in a form that can be readily applied in clinical practice and in research settings has been a challenge. Markers of glomerular filtration, including serum creatinine and urine output, generally lag behind the actual onset of parenchymal kidney injury and reliance on ...
متن کاملAcute kidney injury biomarkers: renal angina and the need for a renal troponin I
Acute kidney injury (AKI) in hospitalized patients is independently associated with increased morbidity and mortality in pediatric and adult populations. Continued reliance on serum creatinine and urine output to diagnose AKI has resulted in our inability to provide successful therapeutic and supportive interventions to prevent and mitigate AKI and its effects. Research efforts over the last de...
متن کاملLudwig's Angina: The Original Angina
Ludwig's angina was first detailed by the German surgeon Wilhelm Friedrich von Ludwig in 1836. We present a case which needed awake fibreoptic intubation due to severe trismus and a prolonged period intubated in the Intensive Care Unit after incision and drainage of neck spaces and removal of his lower wisdom teeth. He was finally discharged a week after admission and followed up in the outpati...
