AKI is a rapid ↓ in kidney fn over hrs – days. Early injury  organ failure.
AKI – causes:


Pre-renal: Intrinsic (renal): Post-renal:
Sepsis. GN. Kidney stones.
Toxins – IV contrast. Tubulointerstitial injury. Prostatic hypertrophy.
Hypotension – vomiting, diarrhoea, Acute tubular injury – prolonged pre- Tumours.
diuretics, burns, ACEi, HF. renal, nephrotoxins (gentamicin,
NSAIDs, rhabdomyolysis, Hburia).
Hepatorenal syndrome. Myeloma. Retroperitoneal fibrosis.
RAS. Lupus nephritis.
ANCA vasculitis.
HUS.
TTP.

Rarer forms of AKI e.g. ANCA-assoc vasculitis, lupus nephritis may have systemic Sx – fever, failure
to thrive, rash, jt pains.
If present, check urinalysis – active urinary sediment (blood + prot).

AKI staging – KDIGO:

AKI stage: Serum creatinine: Urine output:
1 SCr ↑  26 mol/L within 48 hrs < 0.5 ml/kg/hr for 6 consecutive hrs.
OR
SCr ↑ 1.5 – 1.9x from baseline.
2 SCr ↑ 2 – 2.9x from baseline. < 0.5 ml/kg/hr for 12 consecutive hrs.
3 SCr ↑  354 mol/L < 0.3 ml/kg/hr for 24 consecutive hrs
OR OR
SCr ↑  3x from baseline Anuria for 12 consecutive hrs.
OR
Initiated on RRT (regardless of stage at initiation
time)

1.

2. Sepsis – treat.  Identify cause – if not sepsis, toxins,
3. Toxins – avoid. ↓ BP/hypovolaemia, consider

acidaemia.
 Review med doses & fluid Tx.

Red flag sepsis – if pt has any of these criteria, assoc with ↑ morbidity + mortality:
 SBP < 90.  O2 sats < 91.
 Lactate > 2.  Unresponsive/responds to voice or
 HR > 130. pain.
 RR > 25.  Purpuric rash.


Sepsis6 – BUFALO:
 Blood output + septic screen.
 Urine output – monitor hrly, U&Es.
 Fluid resuscitation.
 ABX IV.
