Brief Summary

Single-centre prospective observational study. Participants were recruited from the hospital patient information system. The inclusion criteria for participation was (1) adults (\>18 years) admitted to general wards of Tupua Tamasese Meaole (TTM) Hospital with a diagnosis of AKI between the 1st December 2019 and the 31st of May 2020, and (2) serum creatinine level of \>200 micromol/L, and (3) compliance with the current Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria for AKI diagnosis. The data collection form was adapted from the International Society for Nephrology - Global Snapshot Project, and recorded demographic and baseline characteristics, precipitating causes of AKI, treatment/management, and outcomes measures.
