Attaching importance to sepsis-induced acute kidney injury after burn / 中华烧伤杂志

ABSTRACT

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication after severe burn, which portends a worse prognosis. Sepsis is the leading etiology of late AKI after severe burn. The pathogenesis of sepsis-induced AKI remains incompletely understood. Although there have been numerous preventive and therapeutic measures evaluated for sepsis-induced AKI, the precise and available intervention in sepsis-induced AKI after burn has yet to be defined.
