Recovery of renal function following postoperative AKI was assessed comparing 4 different definitions: serum creatinine (SCr) (i) < 1.1 × baseline, (ii) 1.1–1.25 × baseline, (iii) 1.25–1.5 × baseline, and (iv) > 1.5 × baseline. One-year survival and the development or progression of CKD within 5 years was compared with a propensity score-matched control groups. <b><i>Results:</i></b> In total, 2,520 AKI patients were evaluated for renal recovery. Risk of incident and progressive CKD within 5 years was significantly increased if patients did not achieve a reduction in SCr to < 1.5 × baseline (hazard ratio [HR] 1.50; 95% CI 1.29–1.75) and if renal recovery was limited to a fall in SCr to 1.25–1.5 × baseline (HR 1.32; 95% CI 1.12–1.57) within 30 days. The definition of renal recovery that best predicted survival was a reduction in SCr to < 1.5 × baseline within 30 days. One-year survival of patients whose SCr decreased to < 1.5 × baseline within 30 days was significantly better than that of a propensity score-matched control group that did not achieve renal recovery (85 vs. 71%, <i>p</i> < 0.001). <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> These findings should be considered when a consensus definition of renal recovery after AKI is established.
