The study aims to identify clinical and biochemical indicators that predict mortality in late preterm and term neonates experiencing acute kidney injury.
Conducted a prospective observational study at a tertiary neonatal intensive care unit.
Included neonates ≥34 weeks of gestation and monitored serum creatinine and urine output.
Analyzed risk factors using univariate analysis and multivariable logistic regression.
Out of 756 screened neonates, 82 developed AKI with a mortality rate of 20.7%.
Oliguria (aOR 5.32, 95% CI: 1.46–19.33; P = 0.01) and hyperkalemia (aOR 5.02, 95% CI: 1.33–18.97; P = 0.01) were strong independent predictors.
Mortality was significantly higher in stage III AKI (62.5%) compared to stages II (38.5%) and I (11.5%).
