“…In nontransplant patients, whereas ischemic renal injury results in a mortality of approximately 50%, usually related to accompanying multiple organ failure, most surviving patients are thought to recover nearly full renal function (12). Studies evaluating the long-term effects of ischemic injury report that between 35% and 71% of patients surviving acute tubular necrosis had incomplete recovery of native renal function as assessed by measurement of creatinine clearance or serum creatinine (18)(19)(20). A common feature in two studies was the persistent lack of urinary concentrating ability (18,20) and one study reported that a small percentage of patients manifested a loss of GFR between follow-up years 1 and 5 (19).…”

A common feature in two studies was the persistent lack of urinary concentrating ability (18,20) and one study reported that a small percentage of patients manifested a loss of GFR between follow-up years 1 and 5 (19). Despite the presence of residual or declining renal function, most patients in these follow-up studies were not symptomatic for renal disease.…”

“…In the six who survived there was a return to normal of the serum creatinine, blood urea, and creatinine clearance rates after varying periods. The time taken for the creatinine clearance rates to return to normal suggests that the patients in category 1 had developed acute renal failure and that acute tubular necrosis had not supervened (Sevitt, 1959;Finckhl, Jeremy, and Whyte, 1962), whereas the delayed return to normal of the creatinine clearance'rates of the patients in category 2 indicates that they had developed acute tubular necrosis (Briggs, Kennedy, Young, Luke, and Gray, 1967). Even though data from the eight patients who died are necessarily incomplete, the abnormal biochemical findings had started to return to normal in the two who had completed the course of treatment (Cases 7 and 8).…”

“…In those who survive, there may be decline in function, in some cases leading to ESRD, either at the time of AKI or in the future. 51,[74][75][76][77] Even in patients with complete recovery there is still reduced survival and increased incidence of CKD in the years following AKI. 12,78 Patients experiencing AKI are likely to also have risk factors for CKD.…”
