Acute Kidney Injury in Liver Disease: Impact on Short- and Long-Term Outcomes

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The talk focuses on the interaction between acute kidney injury (AKI) and liver disease in children, highlighting significant aspects such as short- and long-term outcomes. It discusses the various scenarios of AKI: acute, acute on chronic liver failure, cirrhosis, post-transplantation, and hepatorenal syndrome. The presentation reveals alarming data, noting that children with liver disease have a higher AKI incidence and worse outcomes. For instance, children with acute liver failure and AKI are more likely to need liver transplants. The discussion extends to cirrhotic patients, emphasizing that portal hypertension significantly raises AKI risk. The talk distinguishes AKI, acute kidney disease (AKD), and chronic kidney disease (CKD), highlighting their different paths and prognoses. The data indicates that pre-transplantation kidney dysfunction can lead to post-transplant problems, urging a comprehensive approach to patient care, focusing on both kidney health and liver health.
