Acute renal failure (ARF), commonly referred to as Acute kidney injury (AKI), is a brief episode of kidney damage or failure that continues for a few hours or days. Waste products accumulate in the blood as a result of AKI, which also makes it more difficult for the kidneys to preserve the proper fluid balance in the body. AKI can also impact the heart, lungs, brain, and other organs. Hospitalized patients, those in critical care units, and older persons in particular frequently suffer from acute renal injury. Numerous studies have demonstrated the rising prevalence of AKI in the elderly, who are typically characterized as those over 65, as well as the age-dependent association between AKI and advanced age. The majority of this has been ascribed to anatomical and physiological alterations in the ageing kidney, and a portion to different comorbidity, such as hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and chronic kidney disease (CKD), which may necessitate remedies and/or drugs that act as kidney stressors, change renal haemodynamics, or are nephrotoxic. The underlying cause of AKI is intricate and multifaceted. Ischemia is the most frequent cause of AKI and can arise for several reasons. Reductions in blood flow can be partially compensated for by physiological adaptations; nonetheless, organ dysfunction results from insufficient delivery of oxygen and metabolic substrates, which causes cellular damage.
