<p>Community-Acquired Acute Kidney Injury Induced By Drugs In Older Patients: A Multifactorial Event</p>

Abstract: PurposeCommunity-acquired acute kidney injury (CA-AKI) is a frequent and severe adverse drug reaction (ADR) among older patients. The combination of drugs and other CA-AKI risk factors was barely evaluated. The objectives of our study were to both accurately identify CA-AKI induced by drugs in older patients, and to describe their combination with other risk factors.Patients and methodsWe conducted a retrospective, single-center study in a general hospital over a two-year period. An automated detection identif… Show more

“…Immunosuppressive drugs may induce acute tubular necrosis, chronic interstitial nephritis, and thrombotic microangiopathy [15]. Drug-induced AKIs are often avoidable [8,35]. Given that different types of medication are involved in CA-AKI and HA-AKI, it might be possible to adjust and improve the management of these injuries as a function of the affected population.…”

“…Common reasons for medication errors and preventable ADEs summarized from the kidney disease literature were lack of adaptation of drug therapy during intercurrent illness, 17 not following prescribing guidelines, 18 lack of knowledge of specific drugs and drug combinations causing patient harm, 19 lack of early AKI detection, 4 lack of monitoring, and lack of clinical decision support. 20 Systematic reviews emphasized the need for factors related to the patient, medication, and the related interactions to be taken into account for effective prevention.…”

“…Reperfusion leads to the production of metabolites, such as nitric oxide and ROS, which can damage the cell membranes and lead to cell apoptosis. However, druginduced AKI is more common in infants and older people with underlying cardiovascular diseases and renal dysfunction, such as intravascular volume depletion, diabetes, congestive heart failure, chronic kidney disease, and sepsis (18,19). Druginduced renal injury, which results from the direct damage to the renal tubular epithelial cells, occurs when the increasing concentration of nephrotoxic drugs in the renal tubule reaches a toxic level.…”
