Abstract

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is the sudden loss of organ function and the third leading cause of mortality after bleeding and brain trauma among admitted patients. There is a paucity of epidemiological data concerning AKI in Sub-Saharan African countries including Ethiopia with predominant admission of chronic cases. Methods: An institution-based cross-sectional study was conducted from 15 August- 14 October 2020. Epi-Data version 3.2 was used for data entry. In addition, STATA/14 was used for analysis. A Logistic regression model was used to determine the association of independent variables with the outcome variable and adjusted odds ratios (AOR) with 95% confidence interval was used to estimate the strength of the association at P<0.05. Result: Two hundred eighty-eight (288) card of inpatient were selected for analysis making the overall response rate 97.8%. The mean (±SD) age of the respondents was 44.16 (±18.29) years. The overall magnitude of AKI was 23.32% (95%CI: 18.91--29.36). Cases at baseline having hemoglobin level≤10.9mg/dl (AOR=11.4: 95%CI: 4.2, 31.2), bing cancer cases 6.87 (AOR=6.87; 95%CI: 1.76--26.73, P<0.005), and having creatinin levels > 1.36 mg/dl (>121 Micromole/L) was 5.78 (AOR=5.77; 95%CI: 1.93--17.27), were significantly associated with AKI. Conclusions: According to KDIGO-definitions of AKI, the high magnitude was reported among hospitalized patients and predicted by being cases of cancer, anemic and creatinine levels were significantly associated with AKI.
