Core Tip In low-resource settings, the critical question in acute kidney injury (AKI) is often not which kidney replacement therapy modality is theoretically superior, but which one can be started quickly, delivered safely, and sustained reliably. Because comparative trials have not shown clear outcome superiority of one modality across all patients, context-adapted use of intermittent hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis, supported by earlier diagnosis, better referral pathways, and workforce training, offers the most realistic strategy to reduce preventable deaths from AKI in Africa and similar settings.
