Abstract

The abrupt loss of renal function to the point that bodily fluid equilibrium is impossible to maintain is known as acute kidney injury. Serum creatinine levels rise to about twice the usual amount for the patient's age due to a decrease in GFR, which is the condition's primary characteristic1. Its frequency, morbidity pattern, diagnostic challenges, treatment options, prognosis, and final results in individual instances have all been forecasted to make it a significant issue for the paediatric age range. Due to the high occurrence of infections, sepsis, acute glomerulonephritis, and gastroenteritis in hot and humid climates, it is still a prevalent ailment in underdeveloped nations, but in western countries, the main causes are trauma, surgery, alcohol, and narcotics. AKI has been becoming more common, and other investigations have shown varying degrees of mortality as well.
