Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) & Critical Care Nephrology

This track addresses acute kidney injury (AKI) as a major challenge in hospitalized and critically ill patients. Sessions will cover AKI pathophysiology, early diagnosis, and management in intensive care settings. Key topics include sepsis-related AKI, drug-induced nephrotoxicity, surgical complications, and contrast-associated kidney injury. Experts will discuss renal replacement therapy in critical care, fluid management, and hemodynamic monitoring. The track also explores recovery after AKI, long-term outcomes, and prevention strategies. Case-based discussions and clinical guidelines will help translate evidence into practice.In addition, the track will highlight emerging biomarkers, point-of-care testing, and innovative technologies that support early detection and personalized treatment plans. Multidisciplinary approaches involving nephrologists, intensivists, pharmacists, and nursing teams will be emphasized to optimize patient care. Sessions will also address strategies for patient education, risk reduction, and post-discharge follow-up, ensuring better long-term kidney function and overall outcomes. This track is highly relevant for all professionals managing critically ill patients with kidney injury.
