    Author: Lachhein L, Held-Bruhn P, Kielstein R.
    Journal: Z Urol Nephrol; 1984 Nov; 77(11):655-60. PubMed ID: 6524119.
    Abstract:
    Of 250 patients who were haemodialyzed on account of an acute renal insufficiency during a period of 16 years 114 patients survived. A control of the course was performed in 105 patients. Altogether 34 patients dies after their discharge from hospital. Older age and acute renal insufficiency due to urological basic diseases or abscessing pyelonephrititides have clearly worse cumulative survival rates. The risk factors of chronic pyelonephritis and hypertension, respectively, are found in one third of the patients. The long-term prognosis after acute renal insufficiency can be improved by regular dispensary care.
