There is a lot of struggle in defining the AKI in best attempt to recognize as early as possible, leaving behind the AKI network, risk, injury, failure, loss, end-stage kidney disease), kidney disease improving global outcome (KIDGO) criteria. Recently, modified KIDGO criteria are being used for the diagnosis of kidney injury. This book is best in describing the all latest proposals in pediatric critical nephrology in diagnosis and advanced management. It has been divided into 7 parts; each part further subcategorized in chapters. There are total 29 chapters and each chapter starting with a clinical scenario, making this book an interesting and favorite one for readers.
