Abstract

Acute Renal Failure, is a clinical syndrome characterized by an abrupt decline in glomerular filtration rate sufficient to decrease the elimination of nitrogenous waste products (urea and creatinine) and other uremic toxins. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common clinical syndrome with a broad range of etiological profile. It is associated with major morbidity and significant mortality due to the severity of the causative illness. This study is to determine the various causes of AKI, in our hospital and to find out the incidence of AKI by using renal failure indices and to analyze outcome of AKI pertaining to the aetiology
