Acute kidney Injury (AKI) is defined as a sudden loss of kidney function caused by an accumulation of waste products from the body's metabolism in the blood. This occurs when the kidneys cannot eliminate the toxins found in urine on a daily basis, which can lead to serious complications. Acute kidney failure treatment is most common in people who are already hospitalised, especially those who are critically ill and require intensive care.
Acute renal failure treatment is decided by the underlying cause of the condition. If it is caused by medication, your doctor may advise you to discontinue the use of that medication. If it is caused by an infection, your doctor may investigate acute kidney failure treatment options. When there are life-threatening conditions or an imbalance in fluids, electrolytes, or acid-base balance in your body, your doctor may put you on dialysis, a machine that does the kidneys’ job for you while your kidneys recover.
