Acute renal failure (ARF) can be defined as the sudden loss of adequate renal function to clear metabolic wastes and maintain normal fluid and electrolyte balance. ARF may occur in otherwise healthy children, may complicate underlying chronic kidney disease, or may result from multiorgan disorders.

Acute renal failure (ARF) is common among critically ill patients and renal dysfunction is often associated with the multisystem organ failure syndrome. The mortality of ARF remains high but animal data indicate that prevention and early treatment may decrease the morbidity and mortality.

Acute renal failure (now acute kidney injury) is a common complication of critical illness affecting between 30 and 60% of critically ill patients. The development of a consensus definition (RIFLE--risk, injury, failure, loss, end-stage system) has allowed standardization of reporting and epidemiological work.

Although a wide variety of disease processes can result in a failure of renal excretory function, the vast majority of cases with "acute renal failure" (ARF) are due to the syndrome of acute tubular necrosis (ATN). The syndrome is usually initiated by an acute injury to the proximal renal tubular epithelial cells by ischemic or nephrotoxic events. This

Critical Care Clinics, 1987
Acute renal failure is divided into its classic parts: prerenal azotemia, postrenal azotemia (obstruction), and renal azotemia (including acute tubular necrosis). The division of acute tubular necrosis into the ischemic and toxic varieties is supplemented by an analysis of toxic varieties into those caused by antibiotics, radiologic contrast agents ...

Acute renal failure remains an important clinical problem with little progress made in the therapeutic approach over the past 20-30 years. The purpose of this review is to discuss possible etiologies, their diagnosis, differentiation and possible prevention.

Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 2002
Acute renal failure is characterized by an increase in the blood concentration of creatinine and nitrogenous waste products and by the inability of the kidney to appropriately regulate fluid and electrolyte homeostasis. There are many different causes of acute renal failure in children, including prerenal disease, intrinsic renal failure, which ...

International Anesthesiology Clinics, 1980
Most perioperative ARF is ischemic in origin. The kidney is in a unique position to monitor the status of the cardiovascular system. The effects of anesthesia and operation on the kidney are due primarily to changes in hemodynamic function. When cardiovascular performance is inadequate, powerful forces tend to reduce renal blood flow. These effects are

The diagnosis and therapy of acute renal failure should be approached in concert, bearing in mind that more than one cause may co-exist in a patient. Therapy includes reversing prerenal and postrenal failure, removing any nephrotoxins, adjusting drug dosages, correcting acidemia, maintaining good nutritional status, and using dialysis when necessary.
