What predicts complete renal recovery after AKI?

Complete recovery predictors: younger age, no pre-existing CKD (baseline eGFR >60), lower AKI stage, shorter duration, absence of sepsis, absence of radiocontrast exposure, and recovery of urine output >0.5 mL/kg/h within 72h.

What percentage of AKI patients recover kidney function?

Complete recovery: 50-60% of community-acquired AKI. Partial recovery: 15-25%. No recovery requiring dialysis: 5-15%. Hospital-acquired AKI has lower complete recovery rates due to higher severity and comorbidities.

When is nephrology follow-up essential after AKI?

KDIGO recommends nephrology follow-up at 90 days for all Stage 2-3 AKI, any AKI requiring RRT, and AKI in CKD patients. Non-recovery identifies need for RRT preparation and CKD management.

Renal Recovery 90-Day Probability Scoring

Score the probability of renal function recovery at 90 days after hospital-acquired AKI using clinical features: baseline eGFR, AKI stage, sepsis, oliguria, and vasopressor requirement.
