Prevention, diagnosis and management of acute kidney injury: Adapted clinical guidelines of the Ukrainian Association of Nephrologists and Kidney Transplant Specialists

Abstract

Over the last decade, the paradigm of acute renal injury has been changed fundamentally. Unfortunately, the routine clinical practice in Ukraine demonstrates extremely unsatisfactory awareness of the medical community on these issues. In this regard, the Expert Group of the Ukrainian Association of Nephrologists and Kidney Transplant Specialists has created the Adapted Clinical Guidelines on this important issue to improve the professional expertise of doctors, awareness of patients and their families.
