DEFINITION
Acute kidney injury, previously called acute renal failure, is characterized by a reversible increase in the blood concentration of creatinineand nitrogenous waste products and by the inability of the kidney to appropriately regulate fluid and electrolyte homeostasis.
In year 2004 the acute dialysis quality initiative (ADQI) proposed RIFLE criteria for defining AKI .
Later, Acute Kidney Injury Network (AKIN) classified AKI based on the RIFLE system.
![Page 4: Acute kidney injury](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042607/55a720d61a28ab450a8b4569/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
RIFLE CRITERIA
R = risk for renal dysfunction
I = injury to the kidney
F = failure of kidney function
L = loss of kidney function
E = end-stage renal disease

INCIDENCE
Incidence of AKI in hospitalized children appears to be increasing in a pediatric tertiary care center, 227 children received dialysis therapy during an 8-year interval, for an overall incidence of 0.8 per 100,000 total population.
Very low birth weight (<1,500 g), a low Apgar score, a patent ductus arteriosus, and maternal administration of antibiotics and NSAIDS have been associated with the development of AKI. In addition to environmental factors, some children may have genetic risk factors for AKI.
4-6 % case of AKI seen in general ward and up to 40% in PICU .
Affects children who have sepsis and multi-organ failure.
Children undergoing major cardiac surgery and organ transplantation are at considerable risk for developing AKI.

INTRINSIC RENAL Renal vessel obstruction:
- renal vein thrombosis , renal arterial obstruction, hemolytic uremic syndrome , HSP , polyarteritis nodosa and other vasculitis
Glomerular :
Acute glomerulonephritis (poststreptococcal ,other infections ), rapidly progressive GN , lupus nephritis.
Acute interstitial nephritis
Acute tubular necrosis Prolongation of pre-renal insult , intravascular hemolysis , sepsis , nephrotoxixc agents , multi-organ failure , rhabdomyolysis , snakebite , other envenomations , falciparum malaria , leptospirosis
Developmental: Polycystic kidney or hypoplasia.
![Page 13: Acute kidney injury](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042607/55a720d61a28ab450a8b4569/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
POST RENAL
• Posterior urethral valves.
• Ureteropelvic junction obstruction.
• Ureterovesicular junction obstruction.
• Ureterocele.
• Tumor.
• Urolithiasis.
• Hemorrhagic cystitis.
• Neurogenic bladder.
A renal ultrasound should be performed promptly in a child with AKI to evaluate for obstructive uropathy, which can be treated by relieving the obstruction.
![Page 14: Acute kidney injury](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042607/55a720d61a28ab450a8b4569/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
![Page 15: Acute kidney injury](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042607/55a720d61a28ab450a8b4569/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
PRE RENAL
Also called prerenal azotemia, is characterized by diminished effective circulating arterial volume, which leads to inadequate renal perfusion and a decreased GFR.
The kidneys are intrinsically normal, and prerenal failure is reversible once the blood volume and hemodynamic conditions are restored to normal.
Several urinary parameters, including Uosm, urine sodium concentration, the fractional excretion of sodium, and the renal failure index, have all been proposed to help differentiate prerenal failure from vasomotor nephropathy.
![Page 16: Acute kidney injury](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042607/55a720d61a28ab450a8b4569/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
•During prerenal failure, the tubules are able to respond to
decreased renal perfusion by appropriately conserving sodium
and water such that the Uosm is greater than 400 to 500 mOsm/L,
the urine sodium is less than 10 to 20 mEq/L, and the fractional
excretion of sodium is less than 1%:
FENa+ (%) = [UNa+/SNa+] × [SCr/UCr] × 100
• Because the renal tubules in newborns and premature infants
are relatively immature compared with those in older infants and
children, the corresponding values suggestive of renal
hypoperfusion are Uosm greater than 350 mOsm/L, urine sodium
less than 20 to 30 mEq/L, and a fractional excretion of sodium of
less than 2.5%.
• When the renal tubules have sustained injury, as occurs in ATN,
they cannot conserve sodium and water appropriately, so the
Uosm is less than 350 mOsm/L, the urine sodium is greater than
30 to 40 mEq/L, and the fractional excretion of sodium is greater
than 2.0%. However, the use of these numbers to differentiate
prerenal failure from ATN requires that the patient have normal
tubular function initially.

POST RENAL
It includes a variety of disorders
characterized by obstruction of the urinary
tract.
In a patient with 2 functioning kidneys,
obstruction must be bilateral to result in AKI.
Relief of the obstruction usually results in
recovery of renal function except in patients
with associated renal dysplasia or prolonged
urinary tract obstruction.
![Page 19: Acute kidney injury](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042607/55a720d61a28ab450a8b4569/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
RENAL CAUSES
It includes a variety of disorders
characterized by renal parenchymal damage,
including sustained hypoperfusion , ischemia
and nephrotoxins.
![Page 20: Acute kidney injury](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042607/55a720d61a28ab450a8b4569/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
OBSTRUCTION OF RENAL ARTERIES AND VEINS
Bilateral renal arterial thrombosis may occur after umbilical artery catheterization in neonates.
Renal vein thrombosis may be a complication of infant of diabetic mother especially following dehydration.
In older children renal vein thrombosis may occur with nephrotic syndrome with anasarcaand dehydration.
Gross hematuria, enlargement of kidney and azotemia are typical manifestation.
![Page 21: Acute kidney injury](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042607/55a720d61a28ab450a8b4569/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
PATHOLOGICALLY RADIOLOGICALLY
![Page 22: Acute kidney injury](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042607/55a720d61a28ab450a8b4569/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
INVOLVEMENT OF RENAL MICROVASCULATURE
Hemolytic uremic syndrome is a common cause in children
developing AKI .
Following dysentery shigela-toxin enters the circulation and
lead to endothelial injury in microvasculature .
Localized coagulation and deposition of platelet thrombi and
fibrin in glomeruli causing decrease in GFR.
Triad of renal impairment, thrombocytopenia and micro-
angiopathic hemolytic anemia.
Need early and aggressive dialysis.
Antibiotic should not be prescribed in cases of enteritis
especially with E.coli as it increase destruction of bacteria
and increase toxins production (controversial).
Shiga toxin inhibitors are under trial.

ACUTE CORTICAL NECROSIS
• More common in young children, particularly in the neonate.
• Associated with hypoxic-ischemic insults resulting from
perinatal anoxia, placenta abruption, and twin-twin or twin-
maternal transfusions with resultant activation of the coagulation
cascade.
• Clinically, child shows gross or microscopic hematuria and
oliguria and may have hypertension.
•Laboratory features of an elevated BUN and creatinine,
thrombocytopenia may also be present as a result of the micro
vascular injury.
• Radiographic features include a normal renal ultrasound in
the early phase, and ultrasound in the later phases may show
that the kidney has undergone atrophy and substantially
decreased in size. A radionuclide renal scan will show decreased
to no perfusion with delayed or no function.

ACUTE INTERSTITIAL NEPHRITIS
Allergic: antibiotics (β-lactams, sulfonamides, quinolones, rifampin), nonsteroidal anti-inflammatorydrugs,diuretics,others
Infection: pyelonephritis (if bilateral)
Infiltration: lymphoma, leukemia, sarcoidosis
Inflammatory, nonvascular: Sjögren’s syndrome, tubulointerstitial nephritis with uveitis
The patient may have fever , arthralgia , rash and eosinophilia , urine often shows eosinophils .
Radiographic studies demonstrate large echogenic kidneys.
Kidney biopsy demonstrates interstitial infiltrate with many eosinophils.
Therapy for AIN includes withdrawal of the drug implicated in causing AIN. In addition, corticosteroids may aid in the resolution of the renal failure.

ACUTE TUBULAR NECROSIS
Occurs most often in critically ill infants and children who have been exposed to nephrotoxic and/or perfusion insults.
Common causes of ATN include renal hypoperfusionfollowing volume contraction , severe renal vasoconstriction , nephrotoxic agents , sepsis , shock and hypotension.
The mechanisms of injury in ATN can include alterations in intrarenal hemodynamics, tubular obstruction, and passive backleak of the glomerularfiltrate across injured tubular cells into the peritubularcapillaries.
![Page 33: Acute kidney injury](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042607/55a720d61a28ab450a8b4569/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

LUPUS NEPHRITISSystemic lupus erythematosus is a systemic inflammatory
disease of uncertain etiology that involves many organs, including the
kidney. Children initially may present with renal disease without extra
renal signs of SLE, but they usually rapidly develop other symptoms
and fulfill the diagnostic criteria for SLE.
More common in young adolescent females (F/M, 8:1), but 20%
to 25% of cases occur in childhood and even, rarely, in infancy.
Asian, black, and Hispanic children are more affected than white
children.
Nephritis is more common in childhood lupus, affecting up to 80%
of patients at some point, usually within the first 6 months after
diagnosis. Children often present with fever, malaise, arthritis, and
anemia.Less than half of children have a classic malar rash, but more
than half have hematuria or proteinuria, and a few have edema, NS,
or hypertension. The extent of the renal involvement may not be
clinically apparent and usually requires referral to a pediatric
nephrologist for full evaluation, including a kidney biopsy.
![Page 35: Acute kidney injury](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042607/55a720d61a28ab450a8b4569/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
![Page 36: Acute kidney injury](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042607/55a720d61a28ab450a8b4569/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Laboratory evaluation of SLE may reveal anemia,
leucopenia, and thrombocytopenia, as well as severely
decreased concentrations of serum C3 and C4.
Antinuclear antibody and anti–double-stranded DNA
antibody titers are elevated at diagnosis in 95% of
patients with nephritis. Urine abnormalities include
microscopic and gross hematuria, proteinuria, and casts
(red cell, white cell, hyaline, and/or broad-waxy).
Proteinuria may be mild, moderate, or in the nephrotic
range. Heavy proteinuria is usually associated with more
severe disease. One-half of children with SLE nephritis
have elevated serum creatinine levels and decreased
creatinine clearance during the initial course of their
disease.
Lupus nephritis has been divided into 6 classes by
the appearance of the renal biopsy.

Treatment:
Predinsolone, azathroprine, cyclophosphamide and rituximab.
Prognosis:
No complete cure just remission with frequent relapses.
![Page 38: Acute kidney injury](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042607/55a720d61a28ab450a8b4569/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
CLINICAL PRESENTATION
Pre renal
There may be history of volume loss from
vomiting, diarrhea, or blood loss and may
present with dehydration , hypotension ,
tachycardia , pallor , and decreased urine
output .
![Page 39: Acute kidney injury](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042607/55a720d61a28ab450a8b4569/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
RENAL
Hematuria, edema, and hypertension indicates a glomerular etiology for AKI.
Dysentry, patechie and pallor- HUS
Sudden passage of dark red urine, pallor and jaundice- acute intravascular hemolysis
Presence of rash, arthritis might suggest SLE or HSP.
History of prolong hypotension or with exposure to nephrotoxic medication most likely have ATN.
![Page 40: Acute kidney injury](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042607/55a720d61a28ab450a8b4569/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Allergic interstitial nephritis should be
suspected with fevers, rash, arthralgias, and
exposure to certain medications, including
NSAIDs and antibiotics.
![Page 41: Acute kidney injury](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042607/55a720d61a28ab450a8b4569/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
POST RENAL
History of interrupted urinary stream and
palpable bladder or kidney suggest
obstructive uropathy.
Abdominal colic hematuria and dysuria
suggest urinary tract calculi.
![Page 42: Acute kidney injury](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042607/55a720d61a28ab450a8b4569/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
DIAGNOSIS
Physical examination
Obtaining a thorough physical examination is extremely important when collecting evidence about the etiology of AKI. Clues may be found in any of the following
Skin
Eyes
Ears
Cardiovascular system
Abdomen
Pulmonary system
![Page 43: Acute kidney injury](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042607/55a720d61a28ab450a8b4569/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Skin :- Palpable purpura - Systemic vasculitis
Maculopapular rash - Allergic interstitial nephritis
Eye :- Evidence of uveitis may indicate interstitial nephritis
and necrotizing vasculitis. Ocular palsy may indicate
ethylene glycol poisoning or necrotizing vasculitis
Ear :- Hearing loss - Alport disease and aminoglycoside
toxicity
Mucosal or cartilaginous ulcerations - Wegener
granulomatosis
Pulmonary system :- Respiratory rate , pattern
On Auscultation of lungs basal crepts
![Page 44: Acute kidney injury](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042607/55a720d61a28ab450a8b4569/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
CARDIOVASCULAR EXAMINATION
Pulse rate and blood pressure recordings
Close inspection of the jugulovenous pulse
Careful examination of the heart and lungs
Assessment for peripheral edema
Cardiovascular examination may reveal the following:
Murmurs - Endocarditis
Pericardial friction rub - Uremic pericarditis
Increased jugulovenous distention, rakles, S3 -Heart failure
![Page 45: Acute kidney injury](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042607/55a720d61a28ab450a8b4569/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Abdomen
Abdominal or costo vertebral angle tenderness -
Nephrolithiasis, papillary necrosis, renal artery
thrombosis, renal vein thrombosis
distended bladder – Urinary obstruction
The presence of tense ascites can indicate
elevated intra-abdominal pressure that can retard
renal venous return and result in AKI.

Forms of dialysis:
•Intermittent hemodialysis.
• Peritoneal dialysis.
• Continous renal replacement therapy:
Used in sepsis, unstable hemodynamic state
and multi-organ failure.

MANAGEMENT OF COMMON CONDITION
CAUSING AKI
Prerenal AKI: administer crystalloids, stop
diuretics, NSAIDs, ACE inhibitors.
ATN: supportive care, discontinue drugs or
toxin, treat cause of circulatory failure.
Glomerulonephritis: supportive care If post-
infectious, antibiotic for endocarditis, shunt
infection, steroids and immunosuppressive
medication.
![Page 62: Acute kidney injury](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042607/55a720d61a28ab450a8b4569/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
HUS: supportive care, early dialysis, plasma exchange
Vasculitis: immunosuppressive medication, plasma
exchange
Interstitial nephritis: discontinue offending drugs,
consider steroid therapy.
Renal artery , vein occlusion: anticoagulation,
thrombolysis or surgery.
Intrarenal obstruction: discontinue offending drugs,
alkaline diuresis for rhabdomyolysis , haemoglobinuria
or urate crystal.
Urinary tract obstruction: bladder catheterization or
nephrostomy, surgical treatment of obstruction.

OUTCOME
Mortality rates from 30-50% have been reported from developing countries. But the results have markedly improved at tertiary centers with proper expertise and modern facilities.
Outcome depend upon underlying cause.
Prognosis is favorable in ATN from volume depletion, intravascular hemolysis, acute intestinal nephritis and drugs or toxin related AKI especially when complicating factor are absent .
In cresentic GN, atypical HUS, and AKI associated with sepsis, multi organ failure the prognosis is less satisfactory .

PREVENTION OF AKI
Important measures includes prompt rehydration therapy in acute diarrhea, avoidance or judicious use of nephrotoxic drugs.
Maintenance of proper hydration for patients undergoing diagnostic procedures with radio contrast media.
Force diuresis along with the use of allopurinol is effective preventing AKI in patient with TLS.
