Keywords:
Acute Kidney Injury, Acute Stroke, Mortality.Abstract
Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with increased mortality in various clinical conditions. AKI is a free predictor for early mortality or long-term mortality after acute stroke.
Methods: Descriptive study on acute stroke patients with AKI during April 2019 - July 2019. AKI diagnosis is based on the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria.
Results: There was no significant relationship between AKI and Mortality value p = 0.669. No significant relationship was found between blood sugar levels and mortality in acute stroke patients with a p value = 0.158. There was no significant relationship between leukocytes and mortality in acute stroke patients with a value of p = 0.172. No significant relationship was found between electrolytes and mortality in acute stroke patients with a value of p = 0.652.
Conclusion: There is no relationship between acute kidney injury and hospital mortality in acute stroke patients.
