“…Acute reduction of renal function is defined as AKI [ 14 ]. AKI after polytrauma is a common kidney-related complication; the reported incidence of AKI after polytrauma is 25%–40% [ 4 - 6 ]. In our study, the incidence of AKI after polytrauma is found to be 30.5%.…”

“…Kidneys are most vulnerable to dysfunction in polytrauma patients because of various trauma-related pathological factors [ 4 , 5 ]. The reported incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) in polytrauma victims is 25%–40% [ 4 - 6 ]. Patients with old age, with comorbid conditions like hypertension, diabetes mellitus, ischemic heart disease, and with underlying renal dysfunction are highly vulnerable to developing AKI after polytrauma [ 7 ].…”

“…In this literature review, we focused on the epidemiology of AKI in adult inpatients. Many previous studies have attempted to provide estimates of the incidence of AKI, but it is important to note that there is significant variability between studies due to the type of study, the definition of AKI, the location of patient recruitment and the length of the observation period for AKI occurrence [ 10 ]. Despite the use of new classifications, the epidemiology of AKI remains difficult to define.…”

“…ere are no reliable statistics on the incidence of AKI in SSA [5][6][7][8]. AKI can be community-acquired, resulting from poisoning, envenomation or infection prior to hospital admission, or hospital-acquired, occurring following hospital management [9][10][11]. Community-acquired AKI tends to occur in low-income countries and in young people with few comorbidities, whereas hospital-acquired AKI tends to occur in high-income countries and in older people (45-80 years) often with multiple comorbidities [12].…”

“…
Cedera ginjal akut atau acute kidney injury (AKI) merupakan salah satu sindrom klinis yang menyebabkan risiko mortalitas dan morbiditas yang tinggi [1,2]. Data Indonesian Renal Registry pada tahun 2018 menunjukkan diagnosis penyakit utama pasien baru hemodialisis merupakan gangguan ginjal akut sebanyak 6%, gangguan ginjal akut pada penyakit ginjal kronik sebanyak 92% dan penyakit ginjal kronik tahap 5 sebanyak 2%.
