Incidence and prognosis of acute kidney injury versus acute kidney disease among 71 041 inpatients.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Acute kidney disease (AKD) defines patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) or subacute loss of kidney function lasting for >7 days. Little is known about the prognosis of AKD in hospitalized patients. The aim of this study was to investigate the risk factors and prognosis of AKD and to compare different types of acute/subacute renal impairment among Chinese inpatients.

Methods

Complete data were available for 71 041 patients for a range of 5-63 months. AKI and AKD were diagnosed based on the Acute Disease Quality Initiative criteria of 2017.

Results

Of 71 041 inpatients, 16 098 (22.7%) patients developed AKI or AKD; 5895 (8.3%) AKI patients recovered within 7 days, 5623 (7.9%) AKI patients developed AKD and 4580 (6.4%) patients developed AKD without AKI. Mo
