Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) Management
Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) Management
At Nephrocare, we provide specialized care for managing Acute Kidney Injury (AKI), ensuring patients receive comprehensive and effective treatment tailored to their unique needs.
What is AKI?
Acute Kidney Injury is a sudden decline in kidney function, often caused by reduced blood flow, direct kidney damage, or obstructions in the urinary tract. It requires immediate attention to prevent complications and ensure recovery.
Key Facts About Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) Management:
Early Detection is Critical: AKI can be reversible if detected early. Blood tests, urine output monitoring, and imaging help identify AKI signs quickly.
Causes and Risk Factors: Common causes include dehydration, infections, medication side effects (like nephrotoxic drugs), and severe blood loss. Managing underlying conditions is crucial.
Hydration and Fluid Balance: Proper fluid management is vital. IV fluids may be given to rehydrate patients or to manage fluid overload in some cases.
Medication Adjustments: Discontinuing nephrotoxic medications and adjusting doses of drugs cleared by the kidneys are essential to prevent further damage.
Dialysis for Severe Cases: In severe AKI, dialysis may be necessary to support kidney function temporarily while the kidneys recover.
Monitoring and Supportive Care: Continuous monitoring of kidney function, electrolytes, and vital signs is crucial for effective AKI management.
Recovery and Follow-up: Many AKI cases are reversible with proper management, but follow-up care is essential to monitor kidney recovery and prevent chronic kidney disease.
