Article Synopsis
- Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is a serious condition marked by a sudden decrease in kidney function (measured by GFR), often influenced by nephrotoxic drugs, especially in hospitalized patients.
- There are two main types of drug-induced reactions: Type A, which are predictable and dose-dependent leading to Acute Tubular Necrosis, and Type B, which are unpredictable and idiosyncratic leading to conditions like Acute Interstitial Nephritis.
- The study aims to assess the incidence of Drug-Induced Acute Kidney Injury (DI-AKI), identify key offending drugs, understand the mechanisms behind the injury, and evaluate outcomes like mortality and need for kidney support therapy compared to other forms of AKI.
