Answer:
Acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease
Explanation: AKI is an injury that occurs to the kidneys in a sudden onset. CKD is disease to the kidneys that occurs for a long time.
Answer:
Explanation:
Acute kidney Injury is described with damage done either to the kidney itself or other extremities of the urinary tract. Lack of blood flow, ischemia, to the kidneys will lead to an acute kidney injury which if prolonged could lead to necrosis of the kidneys. Another AKI is physical kidney damage, this can obstruct the renal filtering process in the kidneys and cause a sudden onset of the kidneys unable to filter waste in the blood. Obstruction in the urinary tracts can be another reason for AKI. Chronic Kidney Disease is different that AKI as CKD can lead to total damage to the kidneys that is beyond repair. If reached total kidney damage, it will require either a kidney transplant or the patient can enquire going under peritoneal dialysis or hemodialysis. CKD is a long term diagnosis but doesn't always mean that the kidneys are totally damaged. CKD will only require kidney transplant or dialysis if the kidney has reached renal failure, the inability of the kidneys being able to filter waste in the blood. The main characteristic between AKI and CKD is the duration at which symptoms last. All though in CKD a patient may be asymptomatic they will have levels of Albumin that is higher than normal ranges in there urinalysis for a longer duration compared to AKI.
