Utilising patented Biochip Technology, the Randox Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) array simultaneously tests for four novel biomarkers delivering early diagnosis and monitoring of treatment efficacy It may also help you conduct safer and faster clinical trials. ...
The basis for these tests is to evaluate tubular integrity, which is preserved in prerenal disease but lost in ATN. In states of hypoperfusion, the kidneys should avidly reabsorb sodium, resulting in a low FENa: FENa = ([UNa× PCr]/[PNa× UCr]) × 100, where U is urine...
Acute kidney injury (AKI) most commonly occurs in the hospital setting, and hospital-acquired AKI accounts for 22% of all AKI cases worldwide. AKI causes 2 million deaths per year, and 50% of critically ill patients develop AKI. AKIs include prerenal, intrarenal, and postrenal causes. Treat...
Worsening of renal function was defined using AKIN and RIFLE criteria of acute kidney injury (AKI). Mann-Whitney and Spearman tests were performed. P <0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: 28% of patients developed AKI. Patients with AKI compared with patients ...

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a multifactorial syndrome with a high risk of short- and long-term complications as well as increased health care costs. The traditional biomarkers of AKI, serum creatinine and urine output, have important limitations. The discovery of new functional and damage/stress...
Common Blood Tests for Kidney PatientsAcute Kidney InjuryTreatment and Prevention Treatment of acute kidney injury In most patients, with proper management acute kidney injury can be reversed. However delay or improper treatment of severe acute kidney failure can be life-threatening. Major steps for...

In the case of cisplatin administration, biomarkers such as neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin and kidney injury molecule-1 may improve prognostication, differentiating between persistent AKI resulting from acute tubular injury versus prerenal azotemia. The development and validation of blood, urine,...
