Abstract: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the most common serious complications in Intensive Care Unit (ICU),and also an independent risk factor for death.It is associated with a substantial increase in morbidity and mortality.AKI occurs in about 13 million people per year,and the mortality of AKI was 13.1％.A meta analysis showed that the incidence of AK1 was 0.99％-11.6％ in China.Renal replacement therapy (RRT) has become one of the conventional treatments for AKI patients,however the timing of RRT initiation in patients with AKI has not yet been defined.In this article,based on the two recent large randomized controlled trials (RCT),the timing to start or terminate the treatment are reviewed.
