Acure kidney injury (AKI) remains a complex clinical challenge associated with high risk for short-term and long-term adverse events. Since 2009 patients with AKI at the department of Nephrology, Danderyd University Hospital and Karolinska Institutet, have been included in a prospective cohort. Adult patients with either s-creatinine >130 micromol/L and previously unknown level, or 30% increase from previous known level were included; patients on dialysis were not included. All patients were treated and evaluated according to a detailed clinical memorandum, and data collected prospectively.~By 2020, 1861 patiens have been included of which 1519 fulfill current AKI criteria and will be evaluated regarding the following main research questions:~Descriptive study on in-hospital outcome (death, renal recovery), patient characteristics, hyperkalemia and changes in biomarkers reflecting inflammation, acidosis and malnutrition.~One year outcome with focus on renal and cardiovascular outcomes (death, new dialysis, worsened renal function, myocardial infarction, stroke, or heart failure; MARCE).~Long-term outcome (up to 10 years) with focus on renal and cardiovascular outcomes (MARCE).
