Acute kidney failure (AKF) happens when the kidneys suddenly stop working. It can range from a mild loss of kidney function to kidney failure.
The main job of your kidneys is to filter waste from your blood. They also remove excess fluid from the blood (which turns into the urine) and regulate blood pressure. The kidneys help make red blood cells. They regulate electrolytes (a type of nutrient) and also activate vitamin D.
When the kidneys are damaged, they don’t work well. This can happen due to another health condition such as diabetes. Long-term kidney failure is called chronic kidney failure.
