Abstract

Background: The most important factor in the diagnosis of AKI is to accurately and early detect the damage that occurs in the kidney before the filtration capacity of the kidney decreases. Therefore, we discussed the use of NGAL and L-FABP in the early diagnosis of acute kidney injury, evaluation of clinical severity and prognosis as well as prediction of hemodialysis decision in this prospective study.
