Acute Kidney Injury
Conditions
Brief summary
Acute kidney injury (AKI) has been traditionally defined as an abrupt loss of kidney function leading to a rapid decline in the glomerular filtration rate (GFR), accumulation of waste products such as blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine, and dysregulation of extracellular volume and electrolyte homeostasis . Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a very common condition, especially among hospitalized patients. this work aims to study the demographics, etiology, clinical characteristics, and outcome of acute kidney injury in children in Sohag University Hospital - Pediatrics Department.
