Abstract: Acute renal failure has increased rapidly in a few days or hours. This may be dangerous. It’s commonly regular in people who are fundamentally injured and are now hospitalized. Acute renal failure can be identified by an appropriate history, physical tests and some laboratory tests. The most important risk factors for development of ARF were age >65 years, presence of infection and acute respiratory or circulatory failure. Patients who were admitted in our hospitals and with serum creatinine level >0.5 mg dL–1 than baseline level were included in this study. A prospective study of 100 cases of acute renal failure admitted to KIMS, Karad was done. Mortality was also greatly influenced by the primary etiology and associated complications. The study conclude that patients requiring haemodialysis had poor outcome as compared to those managed conservatively.
