The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

© 2019Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common and dangerous complication of hospital admission, even mild dysfunction being associated with reduced survival. Unfortunately, its recognition is often delayed and its management, frequently suboptimal. A failure to recognize relevant risk factors can expose patients unnecessarily to the danger of AKI. This review presents a structured approach to diagnosis and non-specialist management that should provide a framework for routine clinical care.
