Abstract:
Acute kidney injury ( AKI) is a clinical syndrome associated with increased morbidity and mortality, and early recognition is critical .In an attempt to engage laypeople and non-experts,the term kidney attack has been introduced to refer to acute kidney injury (AKI),and AKI with functional loss and tubular damage can be diagnosed both with functional criteria ( CRIAKI, creatinine increase AKI ) and damage criteria ( NCRIAKI, non-creatinine increase AKI ) according to the most recent ADQI consensus .This comprehensive definition of Acute Kidney Syndromes may be a major advancement in terms of early referral , prevention of progression and therapeutic strategies for AKI .
