- BACKGROUND Data about patients in Europe with corona virus disease-2019 (COVID-19) and acute kidney injury (AKI) are scarce.

The nadir creatinine of the hospitalisation was used as baseline. AKI was defined according the KDIGO guidelines as a 1.5× increase of baseline creatinine and in-hospital renal recovery as a discharge creatinine
