The RIFLE criteria, proposed by the Acute Dialysis Quality Initiative (ADQI) group, aid in assessment of the severity of a person's acute kidney injury. The acronym RIFLE is used to define the spectrum of progressive kidney injury seen in AKI: [14] [15] Pathophysiology of acute kidney injury in the proximal renal tubule
Renal angina was proposed as an empiric concept to create a threshold of AKI risk to identify patients who would most benefit from a confirmatory AKI biomarker test. Used to predict the development of severe and persistent AKI, defined as RIFLE Stage I or F three days after admission, renal angina is an easy to use, AKI predictive tool. Renal ...
