Abstract Objective :Acute kidney injury affects 10-15% of all hospitalized patients with a much higher
incidence in the critically ill. The Acute Kidney Injury Network proposed a definition in which serum
creatinine rises (>0.3mg/dl) and/or oliguria (<0.5/ml/kg/h) for a period of 6 hours are used to detect
AKI. Accurate urine output measurements as well as serum creatinine values from our database were
used to detect patients with AKI, their clinical profile and to identify prognostic markers.
Design :Prospective observational study
Setting :4 intensive care units at, a large, academic, tertiary medical center
Methodology:All patients admitted in INTENSVE CARE UNIT in Sapthagiri Institute of Medical
Sciences and Research Centre with diagnosis of acute kidney injury, was included.Data was collected
through a prepared performa.Patients were followed up till death or discharge.The main outcome
evaluated was mortality.
Results:The study shows majority of patients were in 50-60 years age group(24%).Covid 19
pneumonia (52%)was the most common diagnosis followed by sepsis(19%).Overall mortality rate was
56%.In this study out of 100 patients,45 patients required dialysis among them 29 patients
(66%)expired.There was more mortality in patients who needed dialysis;Comorbidities and mods
contributed to mortality.In our study ,Comorbidity seen with highest frequency was Diabetes
mellitus(48%),followed by Hypertension(17%),COPD(5%) and CLD(4%).The current research found a
mortality rate of 64.3% among men and 35.7% among females.
Interpretation and conclusion:The study demonstrates high overall mortality of 56%.Mortality
increased with advancing age.Other contributing factors were comorbidities and oliguric renal
failure.Covid 19 pneumonia was most common diagnosis.There was increased mortality among the
ventilated patients and those requiring dialysis.
