AbstractAcute kidney injury (AKI) represents one of the greatest global health challenges and is associated with high mortality. The often multifactorial etiology and complex pathophysiological mechanisms have so far hampered the development of causal therapeutic options. The treatment should be stage-adapted according to the current KDIGO guideline: avoid nephrotoxicity, optimize volume status and perfusion pressure, monitor serum creatinine, urine output and proteinuria. New insights into the influence of mitochondrial dysfunction and cellular senescence in AKI, well-defined study endpoints, and innovations through nanotechnology may enable targeted drug-based AKI therapy in the future. Especially the weeks following an AKI are a vulnerable phase and crucial for progression management.Thieme. All rights reserved.
