This document has been prepared as a guidance template of minimal requirements for care bundles for acute kidney injury (AKI) detected within hospital and which also allows additional tailoring according to local needs. It is primarily aimed at those hospitals without an AKI care bundle but gives

AKI protocol started In discharge summary: Complete AKI section. Give clear follow up plan to GP in discharge letter including need for blood and urine tests and review of medications held due to AKI.

2021年12月18日 · As no curative treatment exists, prevention of AKI is paramount, especially in high-risk patients. Several randomized controlled trials suggest that a biomarker-guided implementation of the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) care bundle reduces the incidence of AKI postoperatively [1,2,3].

The concept of a 'care bundle' for AKI has been proposed to improve the reliability and quality of care. A bundle is designed to be a structured method of improving care processes and outcomes. It contains a small set of evidence-based practices …

2021年10月8日 · A bundle of preventive measures can be taken to avoid acute kidney injury (AKI) or progression of AKI. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the compliance to AKI care bundles in hospitalized patients and …

The AKI 8 Care Bundle has previously been available in paper form (see below), but it is now accessible directly in the Trust EPR. There are two ways to access the AKI 8 Care Bundle in the Trust EPR:

2024年4月17日 · Acute kidney injury (AKI) is frequent among in-hospital patients with high incidence and mortality. Implementing a series of evidence-based AKI care bundles may improve patient outcomes by reducing changeable standards of care. The aim of this meta-analysis was therefore to appraise the influences of AKI care bundles on patient outcomes.

Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is common and is associated with poor patient outcomes, which in some cases appear associated with deficiencies in the provision of care. Care bundles are increasingly used for AKI and were a key element of the intervention in the Tackling AKI trial.
