*~~Acute renal failure is an old term. Nephrologists want us to use the term Acute~~ Kidney ~~Injury~~ (~~AKI~~).

**The reason is ~~that this entity~~, ~~whatever it's called~~, ~~includes the full range of levels of kidney injury from minor all the way up to complete~~ renal ~~shutdown.~~

*[[Kidney, acute tubular necrosis (ATN)]] - This code {{PAGENAME}} is, by definition, for acute renal failure that is '''"not otherwise specified" (NOS)'''. ATN is more specific, so if it is right, use it

**And yet another synonym is '''~~Acute Renal Insufficiency~~''' ~~([[ARI]])~~.

There are a number of coding rules related to renal diagnoses, centralized info about them is in '''[[Renal Coding ~~Considerations for ICD10~~]]'''.

We understand that the definition in the ICD10 codes is different than the definition in [[ARF (Diagnosis)]] and [[ARI]] and [[CRF - Chronic Renal Failure]] was. We are OK with that and will use the new definitions for the new codes, and the old ones for the old codes. Hopefully we can limit the amount of time where we consider both.
