Abstract:
Asia is the largest and most populous continent and has huge differences in socioeconomic status, development, and health care between the different countries and regions within each country. This manifests in the varied causes of acute kidney injury (AKI), particularly higher rates of community-acquired AKI and in the differential access to health care for the population. Because of resource limitations, prevention and treatment of AKI is a difficult challenge. This review highlights the differences in AKI in Asia compared with the developed world and discusses prevention and treatment of AKI within the context of resource limitations.
