Sick day management in people with chronic kidney disease: a scoping review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Use of certain medications during an acute illness may put patients at an increased risk of acute kidney injury (AKI). Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at higher risk of developing superimposed AKI. The aim of this scoping review is to collate and characterise existing evidence on sick day management considerations and practices during acute illness in people with CKD.

Methods

We searched Embase, CINAHL, MEDLINE, International Pharmaceutical Abstract, Scopus, Google Scholar and grey literature sources. We followed the methodological framework for scoping reviews, while information was extracted in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for scoping reviews. Findings are presented thematically.<
