Acute Kidney Injury
Dr Andrew Lewington Consultant Renal Physician/Honorary Clinical
Associate Professor Leeds Teaching Hospitals
Functions of the Kidney
• maintenance of body composition– osmolality, electrolyte content, acidity
• excretion of metabolic end products– urea, drugs
• secretion of erythropoietin– maturation of erythrocytes
• secretion of activated form of vitamin D3
– calcium and phosphate balance
• renin secretion– angiotensinogen→angiotensin I
Stage 1 eGFR ≥ 90• Kidney damage, normal or increased GFR
Stage 2 eGFR 60-89• Kidney damage, mildly reduced GFR
Stage 3A eGFR 45-59• Moderately reduced GFR ± other evidence of kidney damage• GFR < 60 ml/min for ≥ 3 months ± kidney damage
Stage 3B eGFR 30-44
Stage 4 eGFR 15-29• Severely reduced GFR ± other evidence of kidney damage
Stage 5 eGFR < 15• Established kidney failure
• Kidney damage (presence of structural abnormalities and/or persistent haematuria, proteinuria or microalbuminuria) for ≥ 3 months
Stages of CKD
The UK eCKD Guide - Renal
Acute Kidney Injury
• Term encompasses all forms of AKI– rapid reduction in kidney function– occurs over hours to days– no specific symptoms
• exception – stones
– failure to regulate • fluid and electrolyte balance• acid/base balance
– failure to excrete some drugs
Acute Kidney Injury
– Most commonly associated with acute illness (hypoperfusion)• recovery usual if patient recovers from primary
cause• severe AKI may progress to chronic kidney
disease
– Rarer forms • require rapid recognition for specific therapy

Definition of AKI – Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes
• Serum creatinine rise ≥26 µmol/L within 48 hours
or• Serum creatinine rise ≥1.5 fold from the
baseline value, which is known or presumed to have occurred within one week
or• Urine output is <0.5 mL/kg/hr for >6
consecutive hours
AKI Staging – KDIGO
AKI stage Serum Creatinine criteria Urine output criteria
1
SCr increase ≥26 µmol/L within 48 hrs
or
SCr increase ≥1.5–2 fold from baseline
<0.5 mL/kg/hr for 6 consecutive hrs
2 SCr increase ≥2–3 fold from baseline <0.5 mL/kg/hr for 12 hrs
3
SCr increase ≥3 fold from baseline
or
SCr increase ≥354 µmol/L
or

Epidemiology• based on old definitions
– 5% of hospital admissions– 30% of ICU admissions
• based on new definitions– 18% of hospital admissions– 30-80% of ICU admissions
Aetiology
• essential to establish aetiology • aetiology determines treatment• not all AKI is secondary to ischaemia
/reperfusion injury• important to identify rarer causes
• Sepsis• Hypovolemia
• Acute tubular injury• Tubulointerstitial injury• Glomerulonephritis• Vasculitis
• Kidney stones• Prostatic hypertrophy• Retroperitoneal fibrosis
Pre-renal AKI
Intrinsic AKI
Post-renal AKI
AKI is a Syndrome
Clinical Presentation of AKI
• Risk factors for AKI (some)– chronic kidney disease – cardiac failure– peripheral vascular disease– diabetes mellitus (with proteinuria)– liver disease– myeloma
Clinical Presentation
• poor fluid intake– nausea, vomiting– ↓ functional capacity
• excessive fluid losses– fever– diuretics– diarrhoea– high stoma output– haemorrhage– burns
Clinical Presentation
• drug history– nephrotoxic drugs– radiocontrast media
• urinary tract symptoms– prostatic disease– renal calculi
Clinical Presentation
• volume status – core temperature– heart rate– JVP– postural hypotension
• cardiovascular status– peripheral perfusion– BP– heart rate and rhythm
Clinical Presentation
• palpable bladder– prostatic hypertrophy– carcinoma of cervix
• bruits/absent pulses– renovascular disease
• rash – vasculitis– interstitial nephritis
Complications of AKI
• metabolic– hyperkalaemia
• cardiovascular– pulmonary oedema, arrhythmias, pericarditis
• gastrointestinal– nausea, vomiting, gastritis, ulceration,
malnutrition
Complications of AKI
• neurological– seizures, mental status changes
• infectious• haematological
– anaemia, bleeding
Investigations
• Full Blood Count and clotting• U&Es and bicarbonate (previous renal function)• Liver Function Tests and bone• urinalysis (prior to urinary catheter)• immunological screen – if vasculitis suspected
Investigations
• ultrasound of renal tract within 24hrs if– obstruction suspected– isoteric cause suspected requiring a kidney
biopsy• consider blood film, LDH
– (if ↓ Hb and ↓ Pl)• consider creatine kinase
– (rhabdomyolysis)
Prevention of AKI is Essential
• Risk of complications– increased length of stay– increased mortality– chronic kidney disease
• Cost– £1.2 Billion
Prevention
• identify risk factors– > 75 years– pre-existing chronic kidney disease– vascular disease– diabetes mellitus (with proteinuria)– cardiac failure– hypovolaemia– sepsis– nephrotoxins
• drugs• contrast media
Prevention
• treat sepsis promptly• optomise volume status• stop/avoid
– nephrotoxic medications– minimise volume of contrast
Treatment of AKI
dependent upon the cause– supportive therapy
• stabilise haemodynamics• treat complications• renal replacement therapy - dialysis• avoid further renal insults
– nephrotoxins– Hypotension
» Hold antihypertensives/diuretics
Treatment of AKI
• specific therapy– e.g. vasculitis –
• Immunosuppression• If suspected – refer immediately
Key findings
• < 50% of AKI care considered good
• poor assessment of risk factors• 43% of post-admission AKI -
unacceptable delay in recognition
• Patients with c-AKI sustain more severe AKI than h-AKI
• Patients with c-AKI have better short term and long term outcomes than h-AKI
The Context:Addressing vulnerability & Transforming Urgent Care
1. Provide better support for people to self-care
Self-treatment options & care plan to know what to do and who to contact when deterioration
2. Help people with urgent care needs get right advice in right place, first time
3. Highly responsive urgent care services outside hospital
4. People with serious and life threatening emergency care needs receive treatment in centres with facilities and expertise
5. Connect all urgent and emergency care services
Acute kidney injury: prevention, detection and management up to the
point of renal replacement therapy (CG169)
• Guidance from the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence
• August 2013
• Dr Andy Lewington• Leeds Teaching Hospitals
NICE AKI Guideline
• stresses the importance of risk assessment and prevention, early recognition and treatment
• it is primarily aimed at the non-specialist clinician, who will care for most patients with AKI in a variety of settings
• in view of its frequency and mortality rate, prevention or amelioration of just 20% of cases of AKI would prevent a large number of deaths and substantially reduce complications and their associated costs
Demographics• 25% of general population > 60yrs• >85yrs age group will double in next 20
years• 37% rise in admissions over last 10 years• 66% of patients admitted > 65yrs• 25% of patients have dementia• Patients > 85yrs account for 22% of bed
days in NHS
Patient Population
• Many patients have – multiple co-morbidities– in nursing homes– more complex management issues– decreased functional reserve
• Cardiac• Respiratory• Kidney
– polypharmacy – e-presribing• Need to recognise at risk population

Identifying AKI in patients with acute illness
Investigate for acute kidney injury, by measuring serum creatinine and comparing with baseline, in adults with acute illness if any of the following are likely or present:
– chronic kidney disease (adults with an estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] less than 60 ml/min/1.73 m2 are at particular risk)
– heart failure – liver disease – diabetes – history of acute kidney injury – oliguria (urine output less than 0.5 ml/kg/hour) – neurological or cognitive impairment or disability, which may mean limited
access to fluids because of reliance on a carer – hypovolaemia – use of drugs with nephrotoxic potential (such as non-steroidal anti-
inflammatory drugs [NSAIDs], aminoglycosides, angiotensin-converting enzyme [ACE] inhibitors, angiotensin II receptor antagonists [ARBs] and diuretics) within the past week, especially if hypovolaemic
– use of iodinated contrast agents within the past week – symptoms or history of urological obstruction, or conditions that may lead to
obstruction – sepsis – deteriorating early warning scores – age 65 years or over
Identifying AKI in patients with no obvious acute illness
• Be aware that in adults, children and young people with chronic kidney disease and no obvious acute illness, a rise in serum creatinine may indicate acute kidney injury rather than a worsening of their chronic disease. [1.1.3 ]
• Ensure that acute kidney injury is considered when an adult, child or young person presents with an illness with no clear acute component and has any of the following: – chronic kidney disease, especially stage 3B, 4 or 5, or urological
disease – new onset or significant worsening of urological symptoms – symptoms suggesting complications of acute kidney injury – symptoms or signs of a multi-system disease affecting the kidneys
and other organ systems (for example, signs or symptoms of acute kidney injury, plus a purpuric rash). [1.1.4]
