However, the effect of recovery from AKI after OHCA is uncertain...
Recovery after acute kidney injury: Rationale: Little is known about how acute kidney injury (AKI) resolves, and whether patterns of reversal of renal dysfuncti
Rationale: Little is known about how acute kidney injury (AKI) resolves, and whether patterns of reversal of renal dysfunction differ among patients with respect to ultimate recovery. Objectives: We sought to examine different patterns for AKI reversal that are found in patients and assess how they...
What are the potential mechanisms for recovery from COVID-19 AKI? 1. Whether recovery from COVID-19 AKI differs from other forms of AKI is unknown. More research is needed to better understand the direct impact of the SARS CoV-2 virus on long-term renal fibrosis and recovery. Rationale ...
Acute renal failure (ARF) is “a clinical syndrome characterized by the sudden onset of hemodynamic, filtration and excretory failure of the kidneys with subsequent accumulation of metabolic (uremic) toxins and dysregulation of fluid, electrolyte and acid-balance” (Cowgill and Elliott, 2000). ...
