Abstract

COVID-19 is a coronavirus infection of the respiratory system, with multiorgan involvement. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the complications of covid-19 infection. This review explored the epidemiology, pathophysiology, risk factors, and outcome of AKI in Covid-19 infection. There is huge variability in the incidence of AKI among COVID-19 patients from different regions of the world. Some modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors that can increase a patient’s risk of developing AKI have been identified. Mortality is significantly increased if a COVID-19 patient develops AKI. Avoidance of risk factors and improve survival and reduce morbidity among patients. Long term follow up is recommended for survivors with AKI to monitor for future kidney disease.
