Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a frequent complication in decompensated liver disease, contributing to the unacceptably high morbidity and mortality of these patients. Currently, serum creatinine is the biomarker of choice for the diagnosis and classification of AKI, however, it is influenced by a number of factors that make its use inaccurate and late, both in diagnosis and prognosis. Ther…
The prevalence of dialysis patients in Brazil has increased in recent years, having doubled in the last decade and has become a major public health problem. Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an important treatment option for patients with end-stage renal disease (CKD) requiring renal replacement therapy (RRT), as it offers patients the convenience of home treatment and increased perception of f…
Sepsis is the main cause of acute kidney injury (AKI) requiring dialysis support in patients admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) and it represents an independent risk factor for death. Early intervention is essential for reducing mortality. Infection control in the intensive care environment by hospital pathogens often includes the use of vancomycin and meropenem. It is noteworthy that …

Introduction: Fluid balance (FB) was a factor identified in several studies as an independent variable for mortality in patients with Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) in an intensive care unit (ICU). Currently there are no studies that evaluate the relationship between fluid overload and mortality in patients with severe COVID-19 and AKI. Objectives: To investigate the association between FB and…
INTRODUCTION: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a frequent complication in decompensated liver disease, contributing to high morbidity and mortality. Serum creatinine is the biomarker of choice within the main criteria for defining and classifying AKI, however, it is influenced by a number of factors that make its analysis inaccurate and late. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the role of …

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by SARS-CoV-2 has been declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO). As one of the main complications of the infectious condition, is acute kidney injury (AKI), a syndrome characterized by rapid decrease in renal function, accumulation of nitrogen products, hydroelectrolytic and acidobasic disorders. Although there is extensive lite…
Chronic kidney Disease (CKD) is a global health issue and its prevalence and incidence rates are increasing. Many studies have compared the patients outcomes treated with peritoneal dialysis (PD) vs. hemodialysis (HD), but most of them have divergent results and it's not clear which method is the best. Besides, there are few studies that considered the dialysis urgent start Objectives: We…
