Abstract

Acute renal failure (ARF) is defined as a sudden impairment of glomerular filtration rate resulting in oliguria or anuria, water and electrolyte imbalance, acid-base disturbances, and accumulation in the body of nitrogen waste products. The causative factors of ARF may be prerenal, renal and postrenal.
