Article Synopsis
- Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication in hospitalized COVID-19 patients, worsened by underlying health issues; the Spanish Society of Nephrology launched the AKI-COVID Registry to collect data and analyze outcomes for these patients.
- A study of 730 patients revealed that most were older, predominantly men, and had high rates of hypertension and diabetes; many required ventilatory support, with a notable 33.9% needing renal replacement therapy (RRT) during hospitalization.
- Key predictors for needing RRT included smoking, the requirement for ventilatory support, and higher maximum creatinine levels; overall, 38.6% of patients died in the hospital, with more severe AKI
Background And Objectives: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common among hospitalized patients with COVID-19 and associated with worse prognosis. The Spanish Society of Nephrology created the AKI-COVID Registry to characterize the population admitted for COVID-19 that developed AKI in Spanish hospitals. The need of renal replacement therapy (RRT) therapeutic modalities, and mortality in these patients were assessed.

Methods: Study design was cases and controls nested in a cohort. We studied 65 newborns.
In Pediatric Hospital, from the National Medical Center, of the Mexican Institute of Social Security were analyzed 96 histological pieces: 59 biopsies, 21 surgical material and 16 slides. There were showed the agreement rate between clinical diagnosis and the end histopathological report from the Pathology Department. The higher correlation rate were with biopsies (83%) and surgical material (81%) and the lowest rate were with slides samples (69%).
