When to correct coagulopathy in acute kidney injury?
Incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) in adult trauma patients is 18% with 70% requiring renal replacement therapy. It is a challenge to treat AKI with coagulopathy since there are no defined transfusion triggers for these patients. We report a case wherein a polytrauma patient developed AKI for wh...

description | Incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) in adult trauma patients is 18% with 70% requiring renal replacement therapy. It is a challenge to treat AKI with coagulopathy since there are no defined transfusion triggers for these patients. We report a case wherein a polytrauma patient developed AKI for which he/she was dialysed and subsequently had an intracerebral bleed. There is a need to develop guidelines to transfusion triggers in AKI patients keeping vigilance on fluid overload, hyperkalemia and uraemia-induced platelet dysfunction. |
