Abstract
The review article presents an analysis of scientific articles indexed in the PubMed and Web of Science databases on the pathophysiological and clinical features of acute renal injury in patients with a new coronavirus infection. In addition to the direct damaging effects of the SARS-CoV-2 virus on the kidneys and the systemic consequence of viral infection, there are common damaging factors of acute renal injury for all critical conditions. Data on the direct damaging effects of the virus and the systemic consequence of viral infection are contradictory and require further research. Hypovolemia is common in the early stages of COVID-19, so emergency fluid administration is critical for the prevention and treatment of acute kidney injury in patients with novel coronavirus infection. Optimization of liquid volume in order to prevent and prevent the progression of AKI to a severe degree requiring renal replacement therapy is of particular importance when resources are limited in a pandemic.
