Acute kidney injury (AKI), previously known as acute renal failure, denotes a sudden and often reversible reduction in kidney function, as measured by increased creatinine or decreased urine volume. AKI can be differentiated into prerenal, intrarenal, and postrenal etiologies, and these etiologies can be overlapping and interrelated. Distinguishing the causes of AKI is fundamental to effectively and efficiently treating AKI, which improves patient outcomes. This activity reviews the evaluation and management of acute kidney injury and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in managing patients affected by this condition.
