The normal value for GFR is 90 or above. A GFR below 60 is a sign that the kidneys are not working properly. Once the GFR decreases below 15, one is at high risk for needing treatment for kidney failure, such as dialysis or a kidney transplant. Urea nitrogen comes from the breakdown of protein in the foods you eat.
It also disrupts blood pressure regulation, red blood cell production, and the mechanism for depositing calcium in the bones. There are 4 well-defined stages of acute renal failure: onset, oliguric-anuric, diuretic, and convalescent.

What causes acute renal failure?

Acute kidney failure, unspecified N17. 9 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM N17. 9 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Kidney damage lasting between 7 and 90 days after an acute kidney injury (AKI) is termed acute kidney disease (AKD) [1,2,3]. Although many studies have reported on AKI and chronic kidney disease (CKD), few studies have investigated AKD.
N18. 31- Chronic Kidney Disease- stage 3a. N18. 32- Chronic Kidney Disease- stage 3b.
In primary care, acute-on-chronic kidney disease is often caused by hypovolaemia due to an episode of concurrent illness, e.g. upper or lower respiratory tract infection, urinary tract infection, sepsis or gastrointestinal illness.

AKD encompasses a spectrum that includes both AKI and CKD. AKI may contribute to the development or progression of CKD, while CKD is a strong risk factor for AKI.
The management of AKI involves identifying and treating the underlying case as well as minimizing complications. AKI is usually reversible. In contrast, CKD develops gradually, over months to years, as a result of chronic illnesses such as diabetes and hypertension.
AKI occurs in three types—prerenal, intrinsic, and postrenal.
ICD-10 code N18. 31 for Chronic kidney disease, stage 3a is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the genitourinary system .
N18. 31 Chronic Kidney Disease Stage 3a (This code corresponds to Glomerular Filtration Rates (GFRs) between 45 and 59.)
Stage 3a means you have an eGFR between 45 and 59, and Stage 3b means you have an eGFR between 30 and 44.
Acute kidney disease (AKD) describes acute or subacute damage and/or loss of kidney function for a duration of between 7 and 90 days after exposure to an acute kidney injury (AKI) initiating event.
A GFR of 60 or higher is in the normal range. A GFR below 60 may mean kidney disease. A GFR of 15 or lower may mean kidney failure.
Chronic kidney disease, also called chronic kidney failure, involves a gradual loss of kidney function. Your kidneys filter wastes and excess fluids from your blood, which are then removed in your urine.
Increases in urine output—urine output is a key indicator of kidney health. While too little or no urine output is a sign of kidney injury or kidney damage, an increase in urine output after AKI or AKF can be a sign that your kidneys are recovering.
