About

The aim of the study is to assess the common risk factors for development of hospital acquired acute kidney injury among hospitalized patients in Alexandria Main University hospital and their outcomes.

Full description

Hospital-acquired AKI (HAAKI) is defined as acute renal insult occurring 48 hours or more after admission to a health care facility and It is estimated to occur in 13-18% of hospitalized patients. The early diagnosis of HAAKI reflects on improvement in morbidity and mortality rates especially in developing countries which goes parallel with the goal The International Society of Nephrology (ISN) to eliminate preventable or treatable deaths from AKI by 2025, the "0 by 25" initiative.

Data concerning the spectrum of acute kidney injury (AKI) in Egypt are generally scarce.
