When comparing the post-acute sequelea of COVID vs flu, COVID exhibited remarkably higher burden of post-acute sequalae. Both the magnitude of risk AND extent of organ system involvement were much higher than post-acute flu manifestations.

Acute kidney injury with #COVID19. A new report shows 32% of >5,200 patients had AKI, the key predictors, and almost half did not recover baseline kidney function by hospital discharge https://t.co/EdnZPUzsUM by @BCBowe et al @VAResearch @CJASN @ASNKidney

National study of acute kidney injury (AKI) in COVID-19

32% had AKI

47% did not recover by discharge

Substantial geographic variability 10% - 56%

Between March-July, AKI rates declined 40% - 27%

As treatments for #COVID19 improve survival, long-term impacts need to be considered. New work from @zalaly on acute kidney injury. Note the high percentage NOT recovering by discharge.
