چکیده

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common clinical syndrome defined as a sudden onset of reduced kidney function manifested by increased serum creatinine or a reduction in urine output. This clinical syndrome has been called by 25 different names and at least 35 definitions. As a result of this deficiency of standardized definition, reported incidences of AKI in the ICU range from 1 to 25% with mortality rates between 15 and 60%. This lack of a uniform definition not only leads to the conflicting reports in the literature but is also a major obstacle for research in the field. The recent consensus definition which was proposed by the ADQI group and expanded by AKIN has brought the RIFLE criteria and staging into position as the standard definition and diagnosis of this syndrome. The RIFLE criteria have been extensively validated in more than 550,000 patients worldwide.

Importance of RIFLE (Risk, Injury, Failure, Loss, and End-Stage Renal Failure) and AKIN (Acute Kidney Injury Network) in Hemodialysis Initiation and Intensive Care Unit Mortality

Our study evaluated the differences between early and late hemodialysis (HD) initiation in the intensive care unit (ICU) according to the RIFLE (Risk, Injury, Failure, Loss, and End-stage renal failure) and AKIN (Acute Kidney Injury Network) classifications. On the assumption that early initiation of HD in critical patients according to the RIFLE and AKIN criteria decreases mortality, we retros...

Correlation of intraoperative renal near infrared spectroscopy with the development of acute kidney injury in adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery using cardiopulmonary bypass

Introduction: The present study aimed to correlate renal oximetry near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) values with conventional non-invasive biomarkers for the early detection of acute kidney injury (AKI) in adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery using cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Accordingly, renal NIRS can be employed as a trending device for the prevention of AKI developmen...
