Severe dehydration from gastroenteritis with hypotension, tachycardia, dizziness, dry mucosa and oliguria = renal hypoperfusion, i.e. prerenal AKI (the most common cause of AKI and reversible with fluids). CHF is also a prerenal risk factor.
- ATN can follow if hypoperfusion persists, but the stem gives no muddy-brown casts or failed response to fluids.
- AIN (drug, rash, eosinophils) and postrenal obstruction are not suggested.
