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.
