Quantifying the potential contribution of drugs to the occurrence of acute kidney injury in patients with chronic kidney disease.

ABSTRACT:

Background

We sought to comprehensively describe drug-related components associated with acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), describing the incidence of drug-related AKI, the proportion of preventable AKI, identified the various drugs potentially associated with it, explored the risk factors, and assessed the 1-year incidences of the recurrence of drug-related AKI, kidney failure, and death.

Methods

CKD-REIN is a French national prospective cohort of 3033 nephrology outpatients with a confirmed diagnosis of CKD (eGFR <60 ml/min/1.73 m²). AKIs and adverse drug reactions (ADRs) were prospectively identified from hospital reports, medical records, and patient interviews. Expert nephrologists used the KDIGO criteria to adjudicate all stages o
