title: [Acute kidney injury: update 2016].
abstract: Acute kidney injury is still defined by the functional parameters diuresis and serum creatinine. New biomarkers can be sensible additions for the detection of pathogenesis and prognosis. Risk stratification is also very useful for identification of patients at risk for the development of acute kidney injury. This is of increased importance as usual therapeutic treatments are rare and long-term effects are devastating.
