    AbstractSeveral biomarkers have been developed to detect acute kidney injury (AKI) and predict outcomes. Most AKI biomarkers have been shown to be expressed before serum creatinine and to be more sensitive and specific than urine output. Only a few studies have examined how implementation can change clinical outcomes. A second generation of AKI biomarkers have been developed. These markers, including tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-2 (TIMP-2) and insulinlike growth factor-binding protein 7 (IGFBP7), have obtained regulatory approval in many countries based on large, rigorous clinical studies and small, single-centered trials and have begun to establish clinical utility.Copyright © 2019 Elsevier Inc.
