Defining renal failure in cirrhosis--acute kidney injury classification or traditional criteria?
Renal failure in cirrhosis has been arbitrarily defined as an increase in serum creatinine (SCr) over 1.5 mg/dL which corresponds to a glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of approximately 30 mL/min.1-3 This definition (conventional criteria), proposed in 1996 by the International Ascites Club for has been widely accepted one among the hepatology community.3 Although hepatologists have accepted thi...

متن کاملThe Metamorphosis of Acute Renal Failure to Acute Kidney Injury
Successive generations of scientists and nephrologists have failed to prevent or cure Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) and thousands every year die because of this. Recent innovations in proteomics and genomics have brought hope and renewed interest in preventing this blight. Motivated by high incidence and lack of effective treatments, researchers have focussed on how to detect AKI early in the disea...
متن کاملImportance of RIFLE (Risk, Injury, Failure, Loss, and End-Stage Renal Failure) and AKIN (Acute Kidney Injury Network) in Hemodialysis Initiation and Intensive Care Unit Mortality
Our study evaluated the differences between early and late hemodialysis (HD) initiation in the intensive care unit (ICU) according to the RIFLE (Risk, Injury, Failure, Loss, and End-stage renal failure) and AKIN (Acute Kidney Injury Network) classifications. On the assumption that early initiation of HD in critical patients according to the RIFLE and AKIN criteria decreases mortality, we retros...
متن کاملBiomarkers in Acute Kidney Injury in Cirrhosis
Cirrhosis is a major contributor to the burden of disease in society, and much of the morbidity and mortality associated with cirrhosis is due to the complications of portal hypertension. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a frequent complication in patients with cirrhosis, occurring in up to 20 percent of hospitalized patients (1). Despite the high rate of AKI in this patient population, there is of...
