Abstract
Early detection and management of community acquired Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) can reduce associated morbidity and mortality particularly in low and low middle-income countries where infrastructure for laboratory tests is limited and renal replacement therapy is largely unavailable. We have established a collaborative project between the Renal Unit of the University of Port Harcourt Teaching Hospital and the Renal Department of Salford Royal NHS Foundation Trust, supported by the International Society of Nephrology aiming at investigating the use of point of care (POC) Creatinine (Cr) for early identification and management of community acquired AKI.
