Comparison of Outcomes of Mild and Severe Community- and Hospital-Acquired Acute Kidney Injury.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Acute kidney injury (AKI) has shown an increasingly common occurrence among hospitalized patients worldwide. We determined the incidence and compared the short- and long-term outcomes of all stages of community-acquired AKI (CA-AKI) and hospital-acquired AKI (HA-AKI), and identified predictors for such outcomes.

Materials and methods

This observational, single-center, retrospective study identified patients admitted between January 2013 and December 2013 who developed CA-AKI or HA-AKI. Short- and long-term patient and renal outcomes were analyzed.

Results

AKI incidence was 14.3% (1882, CA-AKI 4.8% and HA-AKI 9.5%). The highest 30-day and 1-year mortality were recorded in the CA-AKI group. Thirty-day mortality rate was 11.4% in CA-AKI group and 5.7% in HA-AKI g
