AKI allows waste products to build up in your blood, which makes it impossible for your kidneys to maintain the proper fluid balance in your body. Certain organs including brain, heart , and lungs can also be affected by AKI. Acute kidney damage is common in hospitalized patients , in intensive care units, and especially in older adults. Acute kidney injury ( AKI) usually occurs when there is sudden damage to your kidneys. The damage that leads to AKI may be caused by, not enough blood flowing through your kidneys, an injury directly to your kidneys or a kidney problem, a blockage in your ureters, the tubes that take urine from your kidneys into your bladder Your chances of having AKI are higher for other health problems (such as kidney disease , stroke , heart disease) or future AKI again.
