Background: Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is a health problem worldwide, accounting for high hospital morbidity and mortality. There is little available information regarding the characteristics and incidence of AKI in Latin America (LA), especially in Mexico.
Objectives: Systematically search the literature and perform a meta-analysis of the epidemiology of AKI in Mexico, to provide data on AKI and kidney replacement therapy (KRT) that would contribute to general knowledge in this matter.

These challenges arise partly from the lack of PM models tailored for low- and middle-income countries. To address this, healthcare authorities in LAC should adopt predictive models to estimate costs and infrastructure needed for PM programs.
