Recently discovered specific markers open up new possibilities for the diagnosis of acute kidney injury (AKI) in burn disease in order to optimize the treatment of such patients. Early diagnosis with the involvement of biomarkers prevents the sudden death of burn patients and allows predicting the course of the pathological condition. There are several characteristics that an “ideal” AKI biomarker should conform to: being non-invasive, locally specific, highly sensitive, being a stable molecule at different temperatures and pH values, having the ability to rapidly increase in response to kidney injury (quantify it), remaining at high levels during the episode and decreasing during the recovery period. There is a difference between the biomarkers that can be freely filtered in the glomerulus, so any increase in their plasma concentration (due to damage to other renal tissues) can lead to a high concentration of indicators in the urine (loss of specificity), and high-molecular-weight markers that are not freely filtered and therefore are more specific when measured in urine. Renal function in burn patients is usually determined by blood and urine tests, as biopsy can cause iatrogenic damage and is not commonly used in this cohort. After the onset of AKI, the level of biomarkers remains elevated for a certain period. None of the described indicators is monospecific for AKI; this makes estimating the time of AKI quite difficult. It has been proven that the combination of three biomarkers at two different time points in adults and the combination of two indicators at two time intervals in children allows to increase the reliability of determining AKI up to 0.78.
