Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication after pediatric cardiac surgery and is associated with worse outcomes. Ibuprofen is widely used in the perioperative period and can affect kidney function in children. However, the association between ibuprofen exposure and AKI after pediatric cardiac surgery has not been determined yet. METHODS In this retrospective cohort study, children undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass were studied. Exposure was defined as given ibuprofen in the first 7 days after surgery. Postoperative AKI was diagnosed using the KDIGO criteria. A multivariable Cox regression model was used to assess the association between ibuprofen exposure and postoperative AKI by taking ibuprofen as a time-varying covariate. RESULTS Among 1,112 included children, 198 of them (17.8%) experienced AKI. In total, 396 children (35.6%) were exposed to ibuprofen. AKI occurred less frequently among children who were administered ibuprofen than among those who were not (46 of 396 [11.6%] vs. 152 of 716 [21.2%], p < 0.001). Using the Cox regression model accounting for time-varying exposures, ibuprofen treatment was not associated with AKI (adjusted HR, 0.99; 95% CI 0.70-1.39, p = 0.932). This insignificant association was consistent across the sensitivity and subgroup analyses. CONCLUSIONS Postoperative ibuprofen exposure in pediatric patients undergoing cardiac surgery was not associated with an increased risk of AKI.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is characterized by a sudden decline in the kidneys' abilities to remove waste products and maintain water and electrolyte homeostasis. This study aims to determine the incidence and predictors of acute kidney injury among neonates with perinatal asphyxia admitted at the neonatal intensive care unit of West Amhara Comprehensive Specialized Hospital, Northwest Ethiopia, 2023. Multicentred institution-based retrospective follow-up study was conducted from October 1, 2021, to September 30, 2023, among 421 perinatal asphyxia neonates. A simple random sampling technique was used. The data were collected using a data extraction checklist from the medical registry of neonates. The collected data were entered into EPI-DATA V.4.6.0.0. and analyzed using STATA V.14. The Kaplan-Meier failure curve and log-rank test were employed. Bivariable and multivariable Cox regression was carried out to identify predictors of Acute kidney injury. Statistical significance was declared at a p ≤ 0.05. The overall incidence of AKI was 54 (95% CI 47.07-62.51) per 100 neonate days. C/S delivery (AHR = 0.64; (95% CI 0.43-0.94), prolonged labor (AHR = 1.43; 95% CI 1.03-1.99) low-birth weight times (AHR = 1.49; (95% CI 1.01-2.20), stage three HIE(AHR: 1.68; (95% CI (1.02-2.77), No ANC follow up (AHR = 1.43; 95% CI 1.9 (1.07-3.43) and Hyperkalemia (AHR = 1.56; 95% CI 1.56 (1.05-2.29); 95% CI) were significant predictors. The incidence rate of acute kidney injury was higher than in other studies conducted on other groups of neonates. Cesarean section delivery, prolonged low birthweight, no Anc follow-up, stage 3 HIE, and neonatal hyperkalemia were predictors of acute kidney injury. However, it needs further prospective study. Therefore, the concerned stakeholders should give due attention and appropriate intervention to these predictors.

Magnitude and associated factors of acute kidney injury among preterm neonates admitted to public hospitals in Bahir Dar city, Ethiopia 2022: cross-sectional study. BMC Pediatr 2023; 23:332. [PMID: 37386411 PMCID: PMC10308618 DOI: 10.1186/s12887-023-04147-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2022] [Accepted: 06/22/2023] [Indexed: 07/01/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury is an independent risk factor for morbidity and mortality in critically ill neonates. Although the magnitude of preterm neonates is high and a major risk for acute kidney injury, there is a paucity of information regarding the magnitude and associated factors of acute kidney injury among preterm neonates in the study area. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess magnitude and associated factors of acute kidney injury among preterm neonates admitted to public hospitals in Bahir Dar city, Ethiopia, 2022. METHODS An institutional-based cross-sectional study was conducted among 423 preterm neonates admitted to public hospitals in Bahir Dar city from May 27 to June 27, 2022. Data were entered into Epi Data Version 4.6.0.2 transferred to Statistical Package and Service Solution version 26 for analysis. Descriptive and inferential statistics were employed. A binary logistic regression analysis was done to identify factors associated with acute kidney injury. Model fitness was checked through Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of fit test. Variables with a p-value < 0.05 were considered as statistically significant in the multiple binary logistic regression analysis. RESULT Out of 423 eligible, 416 neonatal charts were reviewed with a response rate of 98.3%.This study revealed that the magnitude of acute kidney injury was 18.27% (95% CI = 15-22). Very low birth weight (AOR = 3.26; 95% CI = 1.18-9.05), perinatal asphyxia (AOR = 2.84; 95%CI = 1.55-5.19), dehydration (AOR = 2.30; 95%CI = 1.29-4.09), chest compression (AOR = 3.79; 95%CI = 1.97-7.13), and pregnancy-induced hypertension (AOR = 2.17; 95%CI = 1.20-3.93) were factors significantly associated with the development of neonatal acute kidney injury. CONCLUSION Almost one in five admitted preterm neonates developed acute kidney injury. The odds of acute kidney injury were high among neonates who were very low birth weight, perinataly asphyxiated, dehydrated, recipients of chest compression, and born to pregnancy-induced hypertensive mothers. Therefore, clinicians have to be extremely cautious and actively monitor renal function in those neonatal population in order to detect and treat acute kidney injury as early as possible.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Data from adult and pediatric literature have shown an association between albumin levels and AKI. Whether hypoalbuminemia and neonatal AKI are associated has not been studied. METHODS We evaluated the association of albumin with early (during the first postnatal week) and late (after the first postnatal week) AKI for 531 neonates from the Assessment of Worldwide AKI Epidemiology in Neonates (AWAKEN) database and for 3 gestational age (GA) subgroups: < 29, 29 to < 36, and ≥ 36 weeks GA. RESULTS Low albumin levels were associated with increased odds of neonatal AKI; for every 0.1 g/dL decrease in albumin, the odds of late AKI increased by 12% on continuous analysis. After adjustment for potential confounders, neonates with albumin values in the lowest quartiles (< 2.2 g/dL) had an increased odds of early [Adjusted Odd Ratio (AdjOR) 2.5, 95% CI = 1.1-5.3, p < 0.03] and late AKI [AdjOR 13.4, 95% CI = 3.6-49.9, p < 0.0001] compared to those with albumin in the highest quartile (> 3.1 g/dL). This held true for albumin levels 2.3 to 2.6 g/dL for early [AdjOR 2.5, 95% CI = 1.2-5.5, p < 0.02] and late AKI [AdjOR 6.4, 95% CI = 1.9-21.6, p < 0.01]. Albumin quartiles of (2.7 to 3.0 g/dL) were associated with increased odds of late AKI. Albumin levels of 2.6 g/dL and 2.4 g/dL best predicted early (AUC = 0.59) and late AKI (AUC = 0.64), respectively. Analysis of albumin association with AKI by GA is described. CONCLUSIONS Low albumin levels are independently associated with early and late neonatal AKI. Albumin could be a potential modifiable risk factor for neonatal AKI.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to assess acute kidney injury (AKI) and its contributing risk factors among neonates to reduce morbidity and mortality. The study included 310 neonates who were admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Serum creatinine (SCr) was elevated at admission, after 48 h, and before discharge or death. AKI was defined by either an acute rise in SCr of at least 0.3 mg/dL within 48 h or an increasing or persistently high level of SCr >1.5 mg/dL after 48-72 h of life. The patients who developed AKI were studied regarding the most common risk factors and outcomes. The prevalence of AKI in these neonates was 11.9%. Nephrotoxic drugs were the highest risk factor among patients with AKI, but this was not statistically significant different from patients without AKI. Perinatal asphyxia (59.5%), respiratory distress syndrome (48.6%), shock (43.2%), prematurity (40.5%), and sepsis (37.8%) were the main risk factors of AKI following the nephrotoxic drugs (64.9%). The mortality rate for cases with AKI was 62.1%, with a statistically significant difference from non-AKI neonates. The death rate was higher among neonates born before 36 weeks' gestation. There was no statistical difference between oliguric and non-oliguric neonates with AKI regarding the outcome. The overall incidence of AKI in sick neonates admitted to the NICU was 11.9%. Nephrotoxic drugs, perinatal asphyxia, shock, and prematurity were the main risk factors for developing AKI.

Assessment of the diagnostic ability of rifle classification and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin biomarker in detecting acute kidney injury in newborns at the intensive care unit. SRP ARK CELOK LEK 2022.

Abstract
Introduction/Objective. This study was designed to demonstrate the
association of the RIFLE classification and neutrophil gelatinase-associated
lipocalin (NGAL) in predicting of newborns with AKI. Methods. This was a
prospective study. We included 100 newborns suspected of having a kidney
injury. These newborns were admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) at the
University Clinic of Pediatrics from the period of two years. The severity
of the disease was determined by RIFLE classification. The biochemical
marker NGAL was included in this study because it is an early biomarker of
AKI in newborns. The statistical processing of the material was by methods
of descriptive statistics. Results. The prevalence rate of AKI was 6.25%,
but according to the RIFLE classification the prevalence was 8.7%. According
to RIFLE classification, we reported "risk" in 36%, "injury? in 50% and
?failure" in 14% of newborns with AKI. In newborns with perinatal asphyxia,
kidney injury was seen in 34% and 30%, making perinatal asphyxia the most
common predisposing factor. The difference in average value from the SNAPPE
2 result in newborns with AKI and the control group without AKI was
confirmed to be significant (p < 0.001). Also, there was a significant
difference p<0.001 between serum creatinine and urinary NGAL values NGAL, on
the day they were admitted to the ICU. Conclusion. In newborns hospitalized
in the ICU, acute renal injury is a serious condition. We could identify
kidney injury and follow up the progression of the disease by using RIFLE
classification. The need for early diagnosis of kidney injury, in a period
when the disease is not clinically manifest, in the first hours of its
occurrence, is provided by NGAL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Acute kidney injury (AKI) was observed in sick neonates and was associated with poor outcomes. Our cohort represents the neonatal characteristics of those diagnosed with AKI using Kidney Disease: Improved Global Outcome (KDIGO) guidelines. METHODOLOGY A cohort study was conducted in the NICU of FMH from June 2019 to May 2021. Data were collected on a proforma. All continuous variables were not normally distributed and expressed as the median and interquartile range. Categorical variables were analyzed by proportional differences with the Pearson chi-square test or Fisher's exact tests. A multinomial logistic regression model was used to explore the independent risk factors for AKI. Time to the event (death) and the cohort's survival curves were plotted using the Cox proportional hazard model. RESULTS AKI occurred in 473 (37.6%) neonates. The risk factors of AKI were outborn birth [adjusted odds ratio (AOR): 3.987, 95% confidence interval (CI): 2.564-6.200, p: 0.000], birth asphyxia (AOR: 3.567, 95% CI: 2.093-6.080, p: 0.000), inotropic agent (AOR: 2.060, 95% CI: 1.436-2.957, p: 0.000), antenatal steroids (AOR: 1.721, 95% CI: 1.213-2.443, p: 0.002), central lines (AOR: 1.630, 95% CI: 1.155-2.298, p: 0.005) and intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH)/intracranial hemorrhage/disseminated intravascular coagulopathy (AOR: 1.580, 95% CI: 1.119-2.231, p: 0.009). AKI significantly increases the duration of stay and mortality rates by 16.5% vs. 3.9% in neonates with normal renal function (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION About one-third of critically sick neonates had AKI. Significant risk factors for AKI were outborn birth, asphyxia inotropic agents, necrotizing enterocolitis, antenatal steroids central lines, and IVH. AKI is associated with an increased length of stay and increased mortality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies in adults showed a relationship between low hemoglobin (Hb) and acute kidney injury (AKI). We performed this study to evaluate this association in newborns. METHODS We evaluated 1891 newborns from the Assessment of Worldwide AKI Epidemiology in Neonates (AWAKEN) database. We evaluated the associations for the entire cohort and 3 gestational age (GA) groups: <29, 29-<36, and ≥36 weeks' GA. RESULTS Minimum Hb in the first postnatal week was significantly lower in neonates with AKI after the first postnatal week (late AKI). After controlling for multiple potential confounders, compared to neonates with a minimum Hb ≥17.0 g/dL, both those with minimum Hb ≤12.6 and 12.7-14.8 g/dL had an adjusted increased odds of late AKI (aOR 3.16, 95% CI 1.44-6.96, p = 0.04) and (aOR 2.03, 95% CI 1.05-3.93; p = 0.04), respectively. This association was no longer evident after controlling for fluid balance. The ability of minimum Hb to predict late AKI was moderate (c-statistic 0.68, 95% CI 0.64-0.72) with a sensitivity of 65.9%, a specificity of 69.7%, and a PPV of 20.8%. CONCLUSIONS Lower Hb in the first postnatal week was associated with late AKI, though the association no longer remained after fluid balance was included. IMPACT The current study suggests a possible novel association between low serum hemoglobin (Hb) and neonatal acute kidney injury (AKI). The study shows that low serum Hb levels in the first postnatal week are associated with increased risk of AKI after the first postnatal week. This study is the first to show this relationship in neonates. Because this study is retrospective, our observations cannot be considered proof of a causative role but do raise important questions and deserve further investigation. Whether the correction of low Hb levels might confer short- and/or long-term renal benefits in neonates was beyond the scope of this study.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) in infants exposed to nephrotoxic drug combinations admitted to 268 neonatal intensive care units managed by the Pediatrix Medical Group. STUDY DESIGN We included infants born at 22-36 weeks gestational age, ≤120 days postnatal age, exposed to nephrotoxic drug combinations, with serum creatinine measurements available, and discharged between 2007 and 2016. To identify risk factors associated with a serum creatinine definition of AKI based on the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes criteria, we performed multivariable logistic and Cox regression adjusting for gestational age, sex, birth weight, postnatal age, race/ethnicity, sepsis, respiratory distress syndrome, baseline serum creatinine, and duration of combination drug exposure. The adjusted odds of AKI were determined relative to gentamicin + indomethacin for the following nephrotoxic drug combinations: chlorothiazide + ibuprofen; chlorothiazide + indomethacin; furosemide + gentamicin; furosemide + ibuprofen; furosemide + tobramycin; ibuprofen + spironolactone; and vancomycin + piperacillin-tazobactam. RESULTS Among 8286 included infants, 1384 (17%) experienced AKI. On multivariable analysis, sepsis, lower baseline creatinine, and duration of combination therapy were associated with increased odds of AKI. Furosemide + tobramycin and vancomycin + piperacillin-tazobactam were associated with a decreased risk of AKI relative to gentamicin + indomethacin in both the multivariable and Cox regression models. CONCLUSIONS In this cohort, infants receiving longer durations of nephrotoxic combination therapy had an increased odds of developing AKI.

Neonatology 2021; 118:174-179. [PMID: 33780939 DOI: 10.1159/000513666] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2020] [Accepted: 12/08/2020] [Indexed: 11/19/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Critically ill neonates are at high risk of kidney injury, mainly in the first days of life. Acute kidney injury (AKI) may be underdiagnosed due to lack of a uniform definition. In addition, long-term renal follow-up is limited. OBJECTIVE To describe incidence, etiology, and outcome of neonates developing AKI within the first week after birth in a cohort of NICU-admitted neonates between 2008 and 2018. Renal function at discharge in infants with early AKI was assessed. METHODS AND SUBJECTS AKI was defined as an absolute serum Cr (sCr) value above 1.5 mg/dL (132 μmol/L) after the first 24 h or as stage 2-3 of the NIDDK neonatal definition. Clinical data and outcomes were collected from medical records and retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS From January 2008 to December 2018, a total of 9,376 infants were admitted to the NICU of Wilhelmina Children's Hospital/UMC Utrecht, of whom 139 were diagnosed with AKI during the first week after birth. In 72 term infants, the most common etiology was perinatal asphyxia (72.2%), followed by congenital kidney and urinary tract malformations (CAKUT) (8.3%), congenital heart disease (6.9%), and sepsis (2.8%). Associated conditions in 67 preterm infants were medical treatment of a hemodynamic significant PDA (27.2%), -CAKUT (21%), and birth asphyxia (19.4%). Among preterm neonates and neonates with perinatal asphyxia, AKI was mainly diagnosed by the sCr >1.5 mg/dL criterion. Renal function at discharge improved in 76 neonates with AKI associated with acquired conditions. Neonates with stage 3 AKI showed increased sCr values at discharge. Half of these were caused by congenital kidney malformations and evolved into chronic kidney disease (CKD) later in life. Neurodevelopmental outcome (NDO) at 2 years was favorable in 93% of surviving neonates with detailed follow-up. CONCLUSION During the first week after birth, AKI was seen in 1.5% of infants admitted to a level III NICU. Renal function at discharge had improved in most neonates with acquired AKI but not in infants diagnosed with stage 3 AKI. Long-term renal function needs further exploration, whereas NDO appears to be good.

Abstract
Background and Objective: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is recognized as an independent risk factor for mortality and long-term poor prognosis in neonates. The objective of the study was to identify the risk factors for AKI in critically ill neonates to provide an important basis for follow-up research studies and early prevention. Methods: The PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang Med, SinoMed, and VIP Data were searched for studies of risk factors in critically ill neonates. Studies published from the initiation of the database to November 19, 2020, were included. The quality of studies was assessed by the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale and the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) checklist. The meta-analysis was conducted with Stata 15 and drafted according to the guidelines of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement. Results: Seventeen studies (five cohort studies, ten case-control studies, and two cross-sectional studies) were included in meta-analysis, with 1,627 cases in the case group and 5,220 cases in the control group. The incidence of AKI fluctuated from 8.4 to 63.3%. Fifteen risk factors were included, nine of which were significantly associated with an increased risk of AKI in critically ill neonates: gestational age [standardized mean difference (SMD) = -0.31, 95%CI = (-0.51, -0.12), P = 0.002], birthweight [SMD = -0.37, 95%CI = (-0.67, -0.07), P = 0.015], 1-min Apgar score [SMD = -0.61, 95%CI = (-0.78, -0.43), P = 0.000], 5-min Apgar score [SMD = -0.71, 95%CI = (-1.00, -0.41), P = 0.000], congenital heart disease (CHD) [odds ratio (OR) = 2.94, 95%CI = (2.08, 4.15), P = 0.000], hyperbilirubinemia [OR = 2.26, 95%CI = (1.40, 3.65), P = 0.001], necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) [OR = 6.32, 95%CI = (2.98, 13.42), P = 0.000], sepsis [OR = 2.21, 95%CI = (1.25, 3.89), P = 0.006], and mechanical ventilation [OR = 2.37, 95%CI = (1.50, 3.75), P = 0.000]. Six of them were not significantly associated with AKI in critically ill neonates: age [SMD = -0.25, 95%CI = (-0.54, 0.04), P = 0.095], male sex [OR = 1.10, 95%CI =(0.97, 1.24), P = 0.147], prematurity [OR = 0.90, 95%CI(0.52, 1.56), P = 0.716], cesarean section [OR = 1.52, 95%CI(0.77, 3.01), P = 0.234], prenatal hemorrhage [OR = 1.41, 95%CI = (0.86, 2.33), P = 0.171], and vancomycin [OR = 1.16, 95%CI = (0.71, 1.89), P = 0.555]. Conclusions: This meta-analysis provides a preliminary exploration of risk factors in critically ill neonatal AKI, which may be useful for the prediction of AKI. Systematic Review Registration: PROSPERO (CRD42020188032).

Abstract
The aim of the study was to determine the incidence, risk factors and efficiency of the neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) biomarker in early diagnosis of acute kidney injury (AKI) in newborns. The study was designed as a prospective, clinical, epidemiological investigation conducted in the period of three years, which included 50 newborns with AKI hospitalized in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, University Children’s Hospital in Skopje. The estimated prevalence of AKI was 6.4%, while the prevalence according to RIFLE classification was 8.7%. Perinatal asphyxia was a common predisposing factor associated to kidney injury. The mortality rate was 32% and was significantly higher in the group of newborns with congenital heart diseases. There was a significant difference between NGAL values and creatinine values on the day of admission. There was a significant difference in NGAL values between newborns with AKI and lethal outcome and newborns without lethal outcome (p<0.001). In conclusion, AKI is a life-threatening condition. It is an independent contributor to mortality. Urinary NGAL is an early predictive biomarker of AKI in critically ill newborns.

Abstract
Because of the lack of early recognition and referral, the incidence of pediatric acute kidney injury (AKI) in Asia still is underestimated. Although each diagnostic criteria has its own merits, the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes classification now is widely accepted. In Asia, the spectrum of pediatric AKI is wide-ranging, from pediatric AKI in highly sophisticated tertiary-care pediatric intensive care units in resource-rich regions due to advanced procedures such as transplantation, cardiac surgery, and other hospital-acquired causes, to primary care preventable causes, such as infectious diseases, snakebite, and so forth in rural parts of the developing world. The development and application of novel biomarkers, concepts such as the Renal Angina Index and advanced renal replacement therapy have revolutionized the era of treating AKI, but the cost and feasibility are the key determinants, especially in rural areas. In view of availability and expenses, peritoneal dialysis should be the first choice in less-developed areas, however, because of various barriers, it still needs more effort. Effective educational steps to both medical carers and families are needed urgently.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Amphotericin-B (d-AmB) has a broader anti-fungal spectrum and is used for neonatal invasive-fungal-infections especially invasive-candidiasis (IC). To prevent d-AmB-induced nephrotoxicity, renal protective effect of fluid and electrolyte management has been established among adults; in this study, the authors determined this effect among neonates. METHODS In this retrospective cohort study, the authors reviewed neonatal medical records, admitted to neonatal intensive care unit and received d-AmB therapy. Patients were divided into, renal-insufficiency-group (RIG) and the non-renal-insufficiency-group (NIG). RESULTS A total of 90 cases were analyzed, 41 composed RIG and 49 NIG. Renal insufficiency (RI) was developed on 1.7 (0.84) and 7.8 (1.21) days of d-AmB therapy in 26 (63%) and 15 (37%) cases respectively. Bivariate and multivariate analysis demonstrate that >4 m Eq/kg/d sodium intake across all-time points was significantly (p < 0.0001) associated with reduced risk of RI [(phase-I: AOR: 0.96; 95% CI: 0.91-0.99), (phase-II: AOR: 0.84; 95% CI: 0.68-0.92) and (phase-III: AOR: 0.90; 95% CI: 0.86-0.95)]. While adequate fluid intake reduced the likelihood of RI if started before and initial 2 days of d-AmB therapy. CONCLUSIONS Adequate hydration before and 48 hours after d-AmB therapy and >4 mEq/kg/day sodium intake before and through d-AmB therapy may protect neonatal RI.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Objective: to analyze the prevalence and factors associated with acute kidney injury in preterm newborns. Method: a cross-sectional study based on records data of preterm newborns hospitalized in two neonatal units in northwest Paraná State in 2015. For data analysis, the logistic regression model was used by the stepwise forward method and Fisher’s Exact Test. Results: 132 preterm newborns, with a prevalence of 7.5% of acute kidney injury, were hospitalized. Majority of males, extremely preterm and very low birth weight. Associated factors were the use of non-nephrotoxic antibiotics and the presence of mechanical pulmonary ventilation, increasing the chance of developing acute kidney damage by 2.98 and 1.33/day, respectively. Hospitalization days constituted a protection factor. Conclusion: this study was able to identify the prevalence, and outline the variables associated with acute kidney injury in preterm newborns in a particular care situation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Neonatal AKI is associated with poor short- and long-term outcomes. The objective of this study was to describe the risk factors and outcomes of neonatal AKI in the first postnatal week. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS The international retrospective observational cohort study, Assessment of Worldwide AKI Epidemiology in Neonates (AWAKEN), included neonates admitted to a neonatal intensive care unit who received at least 48 hours of intravenous fluids. Early AKI was defined by an increase in serum creatinine >0.3 mg/dl or urine output <1 ml/kg per hour on postnatal days 2-7, the neonatal modification of Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes criteria. We assessed risk factors for AKI and associations of AKI with death and duration of hospitalization. RESULTS Twenty-one percent (449 of 2110) experienced early AKI. Early AKI was associated with higher risk of death (adjusted odds ratio, 2.8; 95% confidence interval, 1.7 to 4.7) and longer duration of hospitalization (parameter estimate: 7.3 days 95% confidence interval, 4.7 to 10.0), adjusting for neonatal and maternal factors along with medication exposures. Factors associated with a higher risk of AKI included: outborn delivery; resuscitation with epinephrine; admission diagnosis of hyperbilirubinemia, inborn errors of metabolism, or surgical need; frequent kidney function surveillance; and admission to a children's hospital. Those factors that were associated with a lower risk included multiple gestations, cesarean section, and exposures to antimicrobials, methylxanthines, diuretics, and vasopressors. Risk factors varied by gestational age strata. CONCLUSIONS AKI in the first postnatal week is common and associated with death and longer duration of hospitalization. The AWAKEN study demonstrates a number of specific risk factors that should serve as "red flags" for clinicians at the initiation of the neonatal intensive care unit course.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common and life-threatening complication in critically ill neonates. Gestational risk factors for AKI include premature birth, intrauterine growth restriction and low birthweight, which are associated with poor nephron development and are often the consequence of pre-gestational and gestational factors, such as poor nutritional status. Our understanding of how to best optimize renal development and prevent AKI is in its infancy; however, the identification of pre-gestational and gestational factors that increase the risk of adverse neonatal outcomes and the implementation of interventions, such as improving nutritional status early in pregnancy, have the potential to optimize fetal growth and reduce the risk of preterm birth, thereby improving kidney health. The overall risk of AKI among critically ill and premature neonates is exacerbated postnatally as these infants are often exposed to dehydration, septic shock and potentially nephrotoxic medications. Strategies to improve outcomes - for example, through careful evaluation of nephrotoxic drugs - may reduce the incidence of AKI and its consequences among this population. Management strategies and updated technology that will support neonates with AKI are greatly needed. Extremely premature infants and those who survive an episode of AKI should be screened for chronic kidney disease until early adulthood. Here, we provide an overview of our current understanding of neonatal AKI, focusing on its relationship to preterm birth and growth restriction. We describe factors that prevent optimal nephrogenesis during pregnancy and provide a framework for future explorations designed to maximize outcomes in this vulnerable population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the efficacy and safety of theophylline or aminophylline for prevention of acute kidney injury (AKI) in neonates and children. DESIGN Systematic review and meta-analysis with application of Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation system. DATA SOURCES PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, Google Scholar and Cochrane renal group were searched from 1970 to May 2018. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA Randomised clinical trials and quasi-randomised trials comparing the efficacy and safety of prophylactic theophylline or aminophylline for prevention of AKI in neonates and children were included. The primary outcomes were: incidence of AKI, serum creatinine levels and all-cause mortality. RESULTS A total of nine trials were included in the qualitative synthesis. Six trials including 436 term neonates with birth asphyxia who received a single dose of theophylline were finally included in the meta-analysis. The pooled estimate showed 60% reduction in the incidence of AKI in neonates with severe birth asphyxia (RR: 0.40; 95% CI 0.3 to 0.54; heterogeneity: I2=0%) (moderate quality evidence), decrease in serum creatinine over days 2-5 (very low to low quality evidence) without significant difference in all-cause mortality (RR: 0.88; 95% CI 0.52 to 1.50; heterogeneity: I2=0%) (very low-quality evidence). A significant difference in the negative fluid balance, increase in GFR and decrease in urinary β2 microglobulin was seen in favour of theophylline. CONCLUSION AND RELEVANCE A single dose of prophylactic theophylline helps in prevention of AKI/severe renal dysfunction in term neonates with severe birth asphyxia (moderate quality evidence) without increasing the risk of complications and without affecting all-cause mortality (very low-quality evidence). TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER CRD 42017073600.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Neonatal AKI is associated with poor short- and long-term outcomes. The objective of this study was to describe the risk factors and outcomes of neonatal AKI in the first postnatal week. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS The international retrospective observational cohort study, Assessment of Worldwide AKI Epidemiology in Neonates (AWAKEN), included neonates admitted to a neonatal intensive care unit who received at least 48 hours of intravenous fluids. Early AKI was defined by an increase in serum creatinine >0.3 mg/dl or urine output <1 ml/kg per hour on postnatal days 2-7, the neonatal modification of Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes criteria. We assessed risk factors for AKI and associations of AKI with death and duration of hospitalization. RESULTS Twenty-one percent (449 of 2110) experienced early AKI. Early AKI was associated with higher risk of death (adjusted odds ratio, 2.8; 95% confidence interval, 1.7 to 4.7) and longer duration of hospitalization (parameter estimate: 7.3 days 95% confidence interval, 4.7 to 10.0), adjusting for neonatal and maternal factors along with medication exposures. Factors associated with a higher risk of AKI included: outborn delivery; resuscitation with epinephrine; admission diagnosis of hyperbilirubinemia, inborn errors of metabolism, or surgical need; frequent kidney function surveillance; and admission to a children's hospital. Those factors that were associated with a lower risk included multiple gestations, cesarean section, and exposures to antimicrobials, methylxanthines, diuretics, and vasopressors. Risk factors varied by gestational age strata. CONCLUSIONS AKI in the first postnatal week is common and associated with death and longer duration of hospitalization. The AWAKEN study demonstrates a number of specific risk factors that should serve as "red flags" for clinicians at the initiation of the neonatal intensive care unit course.

Abstract
Although most medications can be taken safely during breastfeeding, potential risks of infant toxicity do exist because all medications will be excreted into the breast milk to some extent. The amount of medication excreted in the milk depends mainly on (i) within-drug variation, such as dosing; (ii) between-drug variation including chemical characteristics of the medication; and (iii) host factors, such as maternal pharmacokinetics (PK), including variations of pregnancy-associated changes and their post-partum recovery. Neonatal drug exposure is usually assessed by calculating an expected total infant daily dose through breast milk and comparing it to the normal therapeutic dose. However, clinical PK studies in this population are challenging to conduct. Recently, research methods using population PK analyses and physiologically-based PK modeling and simulation techniques have been recognized as a complementary approach to the conventional PK studies in this field. These efforts are important for rational risk assessment balancing the toxicity risk against the benefits of human milk. Health benefits of lactation for both mother and child are significant and a decision to withhold from this should not be taken lightly. In case limited information is present, additional expertise from pharmacists or clinical pharmacologist with expertise in this area should be sought.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a syndrome which has a broad range of etiologic factors depending on different clinical settings. Because AKI has significant impacts on prognosis in any clinical settings, early detection and intervention is necessary to improve the outcomes of AKI patients. This clinical guideline for AKI was developed by a multidisciplinary approach with nephrology, intensive care medicine, blood purification, and pediatrics. Of note, clinical practice for AKI management which was widely performed in Japan was also evaluated with comprehensive literature search.

Abstract
Introduction: In this study, we aimed to define the incidence and time to detection of late onset hyponatremia (LOH) as well as factors affecting its development in preterm newborns. We also aimed to determine the daily sodium requirement of these patients.Methods: We studied a total of 145 very low birth weight infants with a full or nearly full enteral diet and followed them up until discharge. We recorded demographic and clinic characteristics. We measured serum sodium (SNa) levels at least once a week after the second week. We compared infants with LOH with other infants to analyze possible risk factors.Results: Twenty-nine (20%) infants developed LOH in an average of 23.4 ± 7.8 days. The mean SNa level of these infants was 124.6 ± 5.6 mmol/L. Logistic regression analysis showed that a birth weight of less than 1000 g, preterm early membrane rupture, and nutrition with fortified human milk alone were risk factors for LOH. The mean daily amount of sodium added to the nutrition of hyponatremic preterm infants was 3.6 ± 2.1 mmol/L. Subgroup analysis showed that the incidence of LOH was two times higher (39.2%) in infants with a birth weight of less than 1000 g.Conclusion: We observed the development of LOH within three to four weeks in nearly half of preterm infants fed with fortified human milk, especially those with a birth weight of less than 1000 g. We believe that the sodium content of currently used human milk fortifiers should be increased.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common in neonates admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). AKI is associated with increased morbidity and mortality and a greater long-term risk of chronic kidney disease. OBJECTIVES To study the incidence and outcome of neonatal AKI in a single Saudi Arabian center, level 2\3 NICU. METHODS This single-center prospective cohort study included all infants who received level II or III NICU care during 2015 (January to December). We excluded infants who survived less than 48 h after admission, had evidence of congenital renal anomalies, or had insufficient data. AKI was defined according to the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria. Both AKI and non-AKI neonates were prospectively followed up until NICU discharge. Outcomes studied included mortality and length of NICU stay. The results of adjusted risk analyses were expressed as relative risk (RR) with 95% confidence interval (95% CI). RESULTS The incidence of AKI (modified neonatal KDIGO stages) was 56% (120/214 patients). Compared with neonates without AKI, those with AKI had a lower birth weight (2202 ± 816 vs. 1570 ± 776 g; p < 0.001) and a lower gestational age (35 ± 3 vs. 32 ± 4 weeks; p < 0.001). After adjustment for potential confounders, only gestational age (RR, 4.8; 95% CI, 3-9) and perinatal depression (RR, 10; 95% CI, 2-46) were significantly associated with an increased risk of AKI. For infants with gestational age < 32 weeks, only the Clinical Risk Index for Babies (CRIB II) score was associated with an increased risk of AKI (RR, 1.9; 95% CI, 1-3). After adjustment for gestational age, AKI was significantly associated with mortality (RR, 5.4; 95% CI, 2-14), but not with the length of hospital stay (LOS) (p = 0.133). However, the AKI group had a significantly longer LOS (mean difference: 14 days; 95% CI, 5.5-23 days), and 33 patients (27.5%) with AKI were discharged with abnormally high serum creatinine levels (> 65 μmol/L). CONCLUSION AKI occurred in more than half of all NICU admissions, was associated with an increased risk of mortality, and had a higher incidence among smaller and sicker infants. Therefore, close monitoring of renal function during hospitalization and after discharge is warranted in such infants.

Abstract
Objective: To determine association of in-hospital outcome of AKI with etiology in newborns at a tertiary care hospital. Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted at Department of Pediatric Neonatology, The Children's Hospital and Institute of the Child Health, Multan by using non-probability purposive sampling technique from June 2016 to June 2017. A total of 101 newborns diagnosed with acute kidney injury were registered. Etiological factors were assessed and these patients were followed till discharge to monitor in-hospital outcomes. Results: Of these 101 newborns, 75 (74.3%) were boys while 26 (25.7%) were girls. Mean age of these newborns was 7.59 ± 6.13 days (range; 1 day to 28 days). Mean age of the boys was 5.73 ± 7.20 days while that of girls was 6.77 ± 6.16 days. (p=0.515). Mean weight of these neonates was 2545.05 ± 600.42 grams (range; 1000 grams to 4000 grams). Mean serum potassium level was 4.94 ± 0.92 mgEq/L ranging from 3.1 mgEq/L to 7.0 mgEq/L. Mean urea level was 73.35 ± 27.65 mg/dl ranging from 18 mg/dl to 206 mg/dl. Mean serum creatinine level was 1.98 ± 0.27 mg/dl, ranging from 1.6 mg/dl to 2.8 mg/dl. Mean serum sodium level was 145.72 ± 12.64 mgEq/L ranging from 126 to 166 mEq/L. Eighty one (80.2%) were term babies while 20 (19.8%) were pre-term babies. Of these 101 study cases, 29 (28.7%) delivered vaginally while 72 (71.3%) through cesarean section. Delayed crying was noted in 48 (47.5%), dehydration 13 (12.9%), sepsis in 36 (35.6%) and renal malformation in only 4%. Neonatal mortality in these patients was 15 (14.9%) while 86 (85.1%) were discharged from hospital after recovery. Conclusion: Acute kidney disease in newborns is associated with significant disease morbidity and mortality with asphyxia and sepsis are the main etiological factors responsible. It is predominantly more common in boys compared with girls. Mortality rate was high in our study and it was significantly associated with female gender. Mortality was also associated with elevated serum sodium and urea level.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common morbidity in neonatal intensive care units and associated with poor outcome. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of AKI and provide a demographic data and risk factors associated with the mortality and morbidity. METHODS This is a retrospective study included 105 premature babies. Diagnosis of AKI was based on neonatal KDIGO classification criteria. The babies were stratified into two groups according to AKI status during the hospitalization. Clinical and laboratory characteristics of the AKI group were compared to non-AKI group. RESULTS AKI occurred in 21 (20.0%) of 105 premature babies, and mortality rate in these babies was 61.9%. Lower gestational weeks, lower Apgar scores at 5 minutes, lower systolic blood pressures, and inotropic supports were independent risk factors for the development of AKI in preterm babies (P < .05, for each). Oliguria, preeclampsia/eclampsia, resuscitation at birth, lower diastolic blood pressure, patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), inotropic support, and furosemide treatment were associated with the mortality (P < .05, for each). CONCLUSIONS Prenatal risk factors and medical interventions are associated with AKI, and AKI is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Therefore, identification of AKI is very important in this vulnerable population and it should be performed as quickly as possible in all babies who are at high risk for developing of AKI.

Abstract
Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common event in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), especially in extremely-low-birth-weight (ELBW) infants. This cohort study investigated the incidence of and risk factors for AKI in ELBW infants and their overall survival at the postmenstrual age (PMA) of 36 weeks. Methods All ELBW infants admitted to our NICU between January 2010 and December 2013 were enrolled. Those who died prior to 72 hours of life, had congenital renal abnormality, or had only one datum of the serum creatinine (SCr) level after the first 24 hours of life were excluded. The criteria used for the diagnosis of AKI was set according to the modified neonatal KDIGO AKI definition. Results AKI occurred in 56% of 276 infants. Specifically, stage 1, stage 2, and stage 3 AKI occurred in 30%, 17%, and 9% of ELBW infants, respectively. High-frequency ventilation support (adjusted odds ratio [OR]: 3.4, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.78–6.67, p< 0.001), the presence of patent ductus arteriosus (adjusted OR: 4.3, 95% CI: 2.25–8.07, p < 0.001), lower gestational age (adjusted OR for gestational age: 0.7, 95% CI: 0.58–0.83, < 0.001), and inotropic agent use (adjusted OR: 2.6, 95% CI: 1.31–5.21, p = 0.006) were independently associated with AKI. Maternal pre-eclampsia was a protective factor (adjusted OR: 0.4, 95% CI: 0.14–0.97, p = 0.044). Infants with AKI had higher mortality before the PMA of 36 weeks with an adjusted hazard ratio (HR) of 5.34 (95% CI: 1.21–23.53, p = 0.027). Additionally, infants with stage 3 AKI had a highest HR of 10.60, 95% CI: 2.09–53.67, p = 0.004). Conclusion AKI was a very common event (56%) in ELBW infants and was associated with a lower GA, high-frequency ventilation support, the presence of PDA, and inotropic agent use. AKI reduced survival of ELBW infants before the PMA of 36 weeks.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the outcome of extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants with a history of acute kidney injury (AKI). METHOD In a retrospective, case control study, medical records of all ELBW infants admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) between Jan 2002 and Dec 2011 were reviewed. Medical records were reviewed for infants' demographics, blood pressure (BP) at NICU discharge and at ≥3 years, and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) at ≥2 years. RESULTS During the study period, 222 patients met the inclusion criteria, of whom 10% (23 out of 222) had AKI stage 2 and 3, 39% (87 out of 222) had AKI stage 1, and the rest did not have AKI. At NICU discharge, there was a difference in diastolic BP (DBP) among infants who had AKI stages 2 and 3, those who had stage 1, and those who did not have AKI (53 ± 12 vs 46 ± 9 vs 46 ± 11 mmHg respectively; p = 0.007), and 11% (23 out of 209) had hypertension (HTN). Although there was a significant correlation between the rise in SCr and DBP at NICU discharge in infants with AKI (R = 0.304; p = 0.004), there was no difference in HTN between infants with and those without AKI. At ≥2 years of age, 4% (5 out of 120) across all groups had an eGFR < 90 ml/min/1.73m2 or chronic kidney disease (CKD). At ≥3 years of age, 5% (11 out of 222) had HTN. CONCLUSION At NICU discharge, infants with AKI stages 2 and 3 have a higher DBP than infants with stage 1 AKI and those who did not have AKI. However, there is no difference in the rate of HTN between the two groups. At ≥2 years ELBW infants are at risk for CKD independently of whether or not they develop neonatal AKI.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is a serious condition in neonatal care. It complicates the management necessitating the restrictive use of medications. AIM To evaluate clinical profile, identify associated and prog-nostic factors in newborns with AKI. MATERIALS AND METHODS This was a case control study done between January 2008 to January 2010. Total 1745 newborns were admitted, of which 74 babies had AKI. It was defined as serum creatinine >1.5mg/dl. Control group was selected randomly from the hospital numbers of the newborns derived from the electronic registry with serum creatinine below 1.5 mg/dl. Demographic variables like birth weight, gender, gestational age, admission age, growth restriction, Apgar scores, electrolyte levels; and common clinical conditions like asphyxia, sepsis, meningitis, persistent pulmonary hypertension, Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC), mechanical ventilation, congenital heart disease; were compared amongst the two groups. Information was obtained from the admission register, admission files, labor register of obstetrics and gynaecology department and electronic registry. Chi square/independent sample t-test as applicable and logistic regression were used to establish an association of various factors and outcome with AKI. RESULTS The incidence of AKI in our study was 4.24%. Demographic variables more common in AKI group were inborn (p=0.011), male gender (p=0.032), term gestation (p=0.001), Appropriate for gestational age (0.001), higher birth weight (p<0.001), full term (p<0.001), sepsis (p<0.001), NEC (p=0.042), low ApGAR scores at one minute (p=0.011) and five minute (p=0.003). However, on multivariate logistic regression only male gender [Odds Radio (OR)=2.84, Confidence Interval (CI)=1.12-7.21] and Sepsis (OR=14.46, CI=4.5-46.46) were associated with AKI. Respiratory distress syndrome was more prevalent in the control group (p<0.003). No need of mechanical ventilation and absence of shock, improved the survival. CONCLUSIONS AKI continues to be of clinical significance in neonatal intensive care. Further studies are needed to evaluate newer associations (like male gender and low APGAR scores).

Abstract
PURPOSE Renal injury in term and pre-term neonates may be an antecedent to chronic kidney disease in the child's further life. The aim of the paper was to compile a reference range for selected serum and urinary renal markers in the neonatal period for full-term (FT) and pre-term (PT) newborns. MATERIAL AND METHODS The prospective study included 23 FT infants (birth weight - BW≥2500g and gestational age - GA≥37Hbd) and 32 PT children (BW<2500g and GA<37Hbd) in good general condition, without acute kidney injury (AKI) or sepsis. Between the 4th and 28th DOL, urinary concentrations of the studied renal markers (uCr, uNa, uOsm) were determined on a daily basis, while serum creatinine (SCr) was assessed minimum every 48-72h. RESULTS The mean GA and BW of the FT and PT infants were respectively as follows: 38.5±1.7Hbd; 3433±495.2g and 32.7±2.6Hbd; 1836.7±419.8g. For serum glomerular (SCr, eGFR) and tubular markers (FENa, RFI), the median values with normal ranges were compiled. For urinary renal markers (uCr, uNa, uOsm) and those values standardized for kg of body weight, percentile tables for 4-28DOL were elaborated. CONCLUSIONS The study has resulted in determining the normal ranges of serum glomerular and tubular renal markers, as well as percentile tables of selected urinary renal parameters during the neonatal period. The percentile tables may prove to be helpful for further standardization of other urinary parameters per urinary creatinine in neonatal population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine risk factors for acute kidney injury (AKI) in preterm infants as a function of time of onset. STUDY DESIGN In this 5 1/2-year, single-center, retrospective study, incidence and timing of AKI was determined using modified Acute Kidney Injury Network criteria. Characteristics of newborns with and without AKI were compared by chi square and t-tests. Logistic regression was used to examine risk factors for AKI as a function of time of onset and potential confounders. RESULT AKI occurred in 30.3% of 357 neonates; 72.2% was stage 1. Gestational ages (GA), initial Cr, maternal magnesium and volume resuscitation were associated with early AKI (days 0 to 1). Volume resuscitation, umbilical arterial line and receipt of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) for patent ductus arteriosus were associated with intermediate AKI (days 2 to 5). GA, steroids for early hypotension, necrotizing enterocolitis and sepsis were associated with late AKI (⩾day 6). CONCLUSION Stage 1 AKI is a common morbidity in our population. Risk factors for AKI in our population differed with time of onset.

Abstract
AIM This study aimed to analyze acute renal failure in perinatal asphyxia (PNA) of term newborns in a sub-Saharan urban health center. PATIENTS AND METHODS The study was prospective, conducted from 1st June to 30th November 2013 on term newborns hospitalized at the centre hospitalier universitaire pédiatrique Charles-de-Gaulle for PNA. Renal insufficiency (RI) was defined by a serum creatinine greater than or equal to 90 μmol/L. RESULTS Eighty-five PNA cases were included, or 19.8% of newborns hospitalized in the study period. The sex ratio was 2.1. Thirty-eight newborns (44.7%) had RI. Their creatinine averaged 153.8±96.6 μmol/L. Twenty-six of 38 (68.4%) had brain damage in Sarnat stage 2 and 12 (31.6%) stage 3. Twelve newborns with RI (31.6%) had seizures. Transfontanellar echography revealed an abnormality in 30 cases (78.9%) of RI. Of the 38 newborns with renal failure, albuminuria was found in 21 cases (65.2%) and leukocyturia in 28 cases (73.7%). Renal function improved in 86.1% of cases. Newborns with initially normal serum creatinine had no RI during hospitalization. Six newborns (7.1%) died. CONCLUSION This study showed that acute RI is common during PNA most particularly in newborns with severe neurological impairment. In our context, earlier support for women in labor could help prevent PNA and therefore newborn acute RI.

Abstract
In recent years, there have been significant advancements in our understanding of acute kidney injury (AKI) and its impact on outcomes across medicine. Research based on single-center cohorts suggests that neonatal AKI is very common and associated with poor outcomes. In this state-of-the-art review on neonatal AKI, we highlight the unique aspects of neonatal renal physiology, definition, risk factors, epidemiology, outcomes, evaluation, and management of AKI in neonates. The changes in renal function with gestational and chronologic age are described. We put forth and describe the neonatal modified Kidney Diseases: Improving Global Outcomes AKI criteria and provide the rationale for its use as the standardized definition of neonatal AKI. We discuss risk factors for neonatal AKI and suggest which patient populations may warrant closer surveillance, including neonates <1500 g, infants who experience perinatal asphyxia, near term/ term infants with low Apgar scores, those treated with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, and those requiring cardiac surgery. We provide recommendations for the evaluation and treatment of these patients, including medications and renal replacement therapies. We discuss the need for long-term follow-up of neonates with AKI to identify those children who will go on to develop chronic kidney disease. This review highlights the deficits in our understanding of neonatal AKI that require further investigation. In an effort to begin to address these needs, the Neonatal Kidney Collaborative was formed in 2014 with the goal of better understanding neonatal AKI, beginning to answer critical questions, and improving outcomes in these vulnerable populations.
