AAKI (Acute Augmented Kidney Injury)

Acute Augmented Kidney Injury (AAKI) is a sudden decline in kidney function, where the kidneys struggle to filter waste and excess fluids from the blood effectively. This can happen due to various reasons, such as severe infection, dehydration, or injury. When the kidneys aren’t working properly, waste builds up in the body, and imbalances in fluids and electrolytes can occur. AAKI requires prompt medical attention to identify and treat the underlying cause, prevent complications, and support kidney recovery. It is a serious condition that can develop rapidly and needs careful monitoring and management.
