Acute kidney disease (AKD) is defined as subacute damage and/or loss of kidney function occurring 7 to 90 days after acute kidney injury (AKI), and bearing a high risk of progression to chronic kidney disease. Current management of AKD is non-specific and includes prevention of repeated AKI, early and regular follow-up by a nephrologist, resumption and dose adjustment of statins and renin-angiotensin system inhibitors, optimization of blood pressure control, nutrition management, and nephrotoxin avoidance. Recently, SGLT2i and GLP1- RAs have emerged as potential therapeutic tools preventing the transition from acute to chronic kidney disease due to their efficacy in preserving renal function.

Abstract
Acute kidney disease (AKD) is defined as subacute damage and/or loss of kidney function occurring 7 to 90 days after acute kidney injury (AKI), and bearing a high risk of progression to chronic kidney disease. Current management of AKD is non-specific and includes prevention of repeated AKI, early and regular follow-up by a nephrologist, resumption and dose adjustment of statins and renin-angiotensin system inhibitors, optimization of blood pressure control, nutrition management, and nephrotoxin avoidance. Recently, SGLT2i and GLP1- RAs have emerged as potential therapeutic tools preventing the transition from acute to chronic kidney disease due to their efficacy in preserving renal function.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
