Objectives: To identify factors associated with death in patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) during Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) in Abidjan, C?te d’Ivoire. Material and Method: This was a monocentric retrospective analytical study of all patients over 18 years of age with AKI during COVID-19 at the Farah Polyclinic in Abidjan, C?te d’Ivoire. AKI was defined and ranked according to Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) 2012. The data were collected from the medical record and processed using RStudio. Results: Forty-three cases were collected. The average age was 58.5 12 years. The sex ratio (M/F) was 4.4. The main comorbidities were high blood pressure (60.4%) and diabetes (37.2%). AKI was at KDIGO stage 3 in 58%, KDIGO 2 in 21% and KDIGO 1 in 21%. The diagnosis of acute tubular necrosis was retained in 44.2% of patients followed by acute functional kidney injury in 32.6%. Hemodialysis was initiated in 48.8% of cases. The main indication of dialysis was anuria (46.6%). In total, 55.8% of patients died. Factors associated with death were KDIGO stage (p = 0.049), and invasive ventilation (p Conclusion: Mortality is high in patients with AKI during COVID-19 infection.展开更多
