AKIN Classification
In September 2004, the Acute Kidney Injury Network (AKIN) was formed.
The AKIN classification ,it is a later version of the RIFLE classification with
some modifi- cations: the diagnosis of AKI is only considered after achieving

the AKIN classification only relies on SCr and not on GFR changes; baseline
SCr is not necessary in the AKIN classification, and it requires at least two
values of SCr obtained within a period of 48 h;
A report by the AKIN proposed the following criteria for AKI :
In 2012 the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) released their
clinical practice guidelines for acute kidney injury (AKI), which build off of the
RIFLE criteria and the AKIN criteria.
The KDIGO has also recommended a staging system for the severity of the AKI.
