Article Synopsis
- The study examined the causes and outcomes of acute kidney injury (AKI) in 464 patients at a tertiary care center in Sri Lanka, highlighting the influence of age, comorbidities, and severity on patient prognosis.
- Of the patients, 56.5% were male, with a mean age of 57.04 years; by 90 days, most patients showed improvement in renal function, though mortality rates were highest in those over 60 and with more severe AKI.
- The research identified major challenges in AKI management, including inadequate resources and infrastructure, underscoring the importance of early identification and intervention for at-risk populations.
