Adult human kidney, weighs 113 to 170 g,
are approximately 12 cm long, 6 cm wide,
and 2.5 cm thick
( Porth & Matfin, 2009).

14. Acute Renal failure
7 February 2017 pp.by selam M 14
It is a Rapid deterioration of renal
function resulting in retention of
nitrogenous wastes and inability of the
kidney to regulate fluid and electrolyte
homeostasis. (Nelson 20 ed)

16. ETHIOLOGY OF AKI
7 February 2017 pp.by selam M 16
1.Pre renal2. Intrinsic Renal
3. Post-renal
17. Pre-renal
Most common cause of ARF
Results from decreased renal perfusion
to the kidney
Treatment of the cause restores renal
and tubular function
(Paweena S.et.al,2013).
7 February 2017 pp.by selam M 17
18. Causes of pre renal AKI
vomiting, diarrhea, poor fluid intake,
fever, use of diuretics
hemorrhage
cardiac failure
septic shock
7 February 2017 pp.by selam M 18
19. Intrinsic/renal
• Direct damage to the kidneys by
inflammations ,toxins, drugs, infection
Interstitial nephritis, acute glomerulo
nephritis, tubular necrosis, ischemia,
toxins
7 February 2017 pp.by selam M 19
20. Post-renal
Sudden obstruction of urine flow due
to enlarged prostate, kidney stones,
bladder tumors or injury
Bilateral renal calculi, papillary
necrosis, coagulated blood, bladder
carcinoma 7 February 2017 pp.by selam M 20
22. Pathogenesis
Prerenal AKI, also called prerenal azotemia,
is characterized by
• diminished effective circulating arterial
volume, which leads to inadequate renal
perfusion and a decreased GFR.
7 February 2017 pp.by selam M 22
23. Con…
• If the underlying cause of the renal hypo
perfusion is reversed promptly, renal
function returns to normal.
• If hypo-perfusion is sustained, intrinsic
renal parenchymal damage can develop
. ( Alobaidi et al. 2015 January ).
7 February 2017 pp.by selam M 23
24. Intrinsic renal AKI
It is characterized by:-renal parenchymal
damage, including sustained hypo
perfusion and ischemia
Severe and prolonged ischemic/hypoxic
injury and nephrotoxic insult lead to
acute tubular necrosis
7 February 2017 pp.by selam 24
25. Con…
An underlying feature is a rapid decline
in GFR usually associated with
decreases in renal blood flow.
The primary causes of AKI include
ischemia, hypoxia or nephrotoxicity
(basile et.al,2014.)
7 February 2017 pp.by selam M 25
26. con…
Acute interstitial nephritis is another
common cause of AKI and is usually
a result of a hypersensitivity reaction
to a therapeutic agent or various
infectious agents
7 February 2017 pp.by selam M 26
27. Postrenal AKI
Blockage in the urinary tract may cause
urine to build up in one or both kidneys.
Over time, this fluid buildup can prevent
the normal flow of urine out of the
kidney.
7 February 2017 pp.by selam M 27
28. Con…
In adults sudden obstruction of urine
flow occurs due to enlarged prostate,
kidney stones, bladder tumors or injury
account for the majority of cases of AKI
(OD, et al 2013)
7 February 2017 pp.by selam M 28
29. Prerenal
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,
Sudden onset and reversible
7 February 2017 pp.by selam M 29
Clinical presentation
30. Renal
Hematuria, edema, and hypertension
indicates a glomerular etiology for AKI.
Presence of rash
History of prolonged exposure to
nephrotoxic medication
7 February 2017 pp.by selam M 30
31. Post renal
• History of interrupted urinary stream
and palpable bladder or kidney suggest
obstructive uropathy.
• Abdominal colic pain, hematuria and
dysuria suggest urinary tract calculi.
7 February 2017 pp.by selam M 31
34. Con…
Abdomen
Abdominal or costovertebral angle
tenderness - Nephrolithiasis, renal artery
or renal vein thrombosis
distended bladder – Urinary obstruction
( P, et al 2009)
7 February 2017 pp.by selam M 34
35. BUN, Serum cr level and electrolyte
Urinary indices may be useful in differentiating
prerenal AKI from intra renal AKI.

controlled by other measures
7 February 2017 pp.by selam M 43
44. • Nutrition is of critical importance a patient
who develop AKI. In most cases, sodium,
potassium, and phosphorus should be
restricted.
• Protein intake should be moderately restricted
while maximizing caloric intake to minimize
the accumulation of nitrogenous wastes7 February 2017 pp.by selam M 44
Nutrition
45. con…
• The recommended energy provide target of
20–30 kcal/kg/day and a protein target of
1.5 g/kg/day, in the absence of RRT.
• In case of RRT, an increase in protein supply
maximum 1.7 g/kg/day suggested
[KDIGO 2O12 guideline]
