Subclinical Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) refers to kidney damage that occurs without any prominent signs or symptoms of decreased urine output or changes in blood tests like creatinine levels. Instead, it's identified through more sensitive markers that show early kidney stress or injury, such as increased levels of specific proteins in the urine or blood.
Detecting subclinical AKI is crucial because it allows for early intervention to prevent further kidney damage and improve outcomes for patients, particularly in settings like intensive care units where AKI risk is high. Regular monitoring of these markers in high-risk patients can aid in timely interventions to protect kidney function.
