Our Specialty

Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) & Critical Care Nephrology

Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is a Sudden Drop In Kidney Function—often happening within hours or days. It is common in hospitalized or critically ill patients and needs Quick, Precise, And Expert Care.

 

Our focus is simple: Act Fast, Stabilize Early, And Prevent Long-Term Damage.

ICU-Related AKI

AKI is frequently seen in ICU patients due to serious illness or organ stress.

 

We provide:

  • Close kidney function monitoring
  • Fluid balance management
  • Coordination with ICU team
  • Early intervention to prevent worsening

Timely Care In ICU Can Be Life-Saving.

Sepsis-Associated AKI

Severe infections (sepsis) can directly affect kidney function.

 

Our approach includes:

  • Early identification of kidney involvement
  • Infection control along with kidney support
  • Maintaining blood pressure and circulation
  • Preventing multi-organ damage

 

Managing Infection + Protecting Kidneys = Better Outcomes.

Cardiorenal Syndrome

The heart and kidneys are deeply connected—when one suffers, the other is affected.

 

We focus on:

  • Balancing heart and kidney treatment
  • Managing fluid overload safely
  • Optimizing medications for both organs
  • Continuous monitoring in critical cases

 

A Careful Balance Is Key Here.

Drug-Induced Kidney Injury

Certain medicines can harm the kidneys if not monitored properly.

 

We help by:

  • Identifying harmful drugs early
  • Adjusting doses based on kidney function
  • Stopping or replacing risky medications
  • Preventing further damage

 

Safe Medication Use = Safer Kidneys.

Contrast Nephropathy Prevention

Some scans (like CT with contrast) can affect kidney function, especially in high-risk patients.

 

We ensure:

  • Risk assessment before procedures
  • Proper hydration protocols
  • Use of safer alternatives when possible
  • Post-procedure kidney monitoring

 

Prevention Here Is Much Easier Than Treatment.

RRT (Dialysis) Decision-Making

Not every AKI patient needs dialysis—but when needed, timing is critical.

 

We guide:

  • When to start dialysis
  • Type of dialysis best suited (temporary support)
  • Monitoring response to treatment
  • Gradual recovery planning

 

Right Decision At The Right Time Makes All The Difference.

Electrolyte Emergencies

Imbalance of salts like potassium, sodium, or acid levels can become life-threatening.

 

We manage:

  • High potassium (risk to heart)
  • Severe sodium imbalance
  • Acid-base disturbances
  • Rapid correction with safe protocols

 

Quick Action Here Can Prevent Serious Complications.

Our Approach

In critical care nephrology, every minute counts.

 

At Dr. Divya Bajpai’s practice, we focus on:

  • Rapid diagnosis and intervention
  • Evidence-based critical care
  • Close coordination with ICU teams
  • Clear communication with patient families

 

Because In Emergencies, Speed + Accuracy = Survival And Recovery.
