description Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a serious problem, affecting multiple organs, and is associated with a high mortality. The severe consequences of AKI extend beyond hospital discharge to the outpatient setting. While a plethora of literature exists guiding the management of AKI in the hospital setting, currently, there are no guidelines for the best care of AKI patients post-hospital discharge. In this review, we address the burden of AKI on patients and the importance of optimal coordinated care of these patients post-hospital discharge. We review the care of patients with or without dialysis requirements at the time of discharge and thereafter.
