Can Early Nephrology Consultation Prevent Severe AKI in Patients at Risk?

Paper No results yet Not peer reviewed

Key takeaways

This is a short piece in a kidney professionals' newsletter asking whether calling in a kidney specialist early can prevent severe sudden kidney injury. Sudden kidney injury (AKI) is a fast drop in kidney function, and it happens most often to people already in the hospital. The article discusses the question rather than testing it, so there are no results yet.
