Fluid overload is associated with increased 90-day mortality in AML patients undergoing induction chemotherapy.

Treatment-related complications contribute substantially to morbidity and mortality in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients undergoing induction chemotherapy. Although AML patients are susceptible to fluid overload (FO) (e.g.

Acute kidney injury adversely affects the clinical course of acute myeloid leukemia patients undergoing induction chemotherapy.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) complicates the clinical course of hospitalized patients by increasing need for intensive care treatment and mortality. There is only little data about its impact on AML patients undergoing intensive induction chemotherapy. In this study, we analyzed the incidence as well as risk factors for AKI development and its impact on the clinical course of AML patients undergoing induction chemotherapy.
