Preventing Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) involves thorough monitoring and management of underlying conditions that can stress the kidneys. This includes maintaining adequate hydration, especially during illness or after surgery, and avoiding medications that can harm kidney function unless necessary. Monitoring kidney function through regular blood tests is crucial, especially in high-risk situations like ICU stays or when using contrast dyes for imaging.
The treatment for AKI focuses on addressing the underlying cause and supporting kidney function. This may involve medication adjustments, fluid balance management, and ensuring adequate nutrition. In severe cases, treatments like dialysis may be necessary to help the kidneys filter waste from the blood until they recover. Early detection and prompt treatment are crucial to minimize complications and improve outcomes for patients with AKI.
