What is acute kidney injury?
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a rapid
deterioration of renal function,
resulting in inability to maintain
fluid, electrolyte and acid-base
balance. It normally occurs in the
context of other serious illness (e.g.
sepsis) on a background of risk.

Who is most at risk?

Two patients are admitted via accident and emergency on a Friday night.
George, an 86 year old man has crushing chest pain and ECG changes consistent with a large heart attack.
Julia, a slim 56 year old, with long standing diabetes, has not been feeling right - the GP did a blood test and her serum creatinine is 456 umol/L.
Who should we most be worried about?

Why is it important? Associated with other serious illness
“Force multiplier” for poor outcomes
Potential to improve care
Reduce avoidable harm - death and morbidity
Reduce cost
Important marker of illness

NCEPOD report published in 2009

Poor assessment of risk factors for AKI and acute illness
Delays in recognising AKI
Most patients with AKI are not cared for by nephrologists
Most patients with AKI are not cared for by nephrologist
‘Good’ care in <50% cases

Who is at greatest risk?
The NHS campaign to improve the care of people at risk of or with, acute kidney injury Secondary Care Considerations
For George, his risk of death is 32.2%
For Julia, her risk of death is 53.1%

Our shared purpose: reduce harm related to AKI
Who is at risk?
When do people sustain AKI?
How should patients with AKI be
managed?
What do people need to know?

Understanding Risk
Vulnerability A fixed set of characteristics – e.g. age, comorbidities including CKDs, diabetes, drugs
Trigger An event that might precipitate AKI, e.g. surgery, sepsis
Response Mitigating the risk e.g. sick days rules, monitoring

Modifiable risk factors
Drugs
NSAID – auto-regulation
Diuretics – volume status
ACEi/ARB and other BP targeted medications – BP and auto-regulation
Metformin – side effects enhanced

Reducing risk: Sick day guidance (a.k.a rules)
Previous history of acute kidney injury
Bristol CLAHRC undertaking formal evidence review
Plan to use this to build consensus with other stakeholders e.g. British Hypertension Society, British Society for Heart Failure

Is it enough to do a test?

In conclusion, this randomised, controlled study did not show a meaningful benefit of an electronic alert system for acute kidney injury in patients in hospital.

Common 1 in 5 of all emergency
admissions 2/3 starts in the community
Costly
It increases the risk of death and harm
It costs resources
Treatable Education Early detection Better intervention
