WCN26-8298 Preliminary report of Progression of Neonatal Acute Kidney Injury to Chronic Kidney Disease: Insights from Early Life Renal Insults

Key Points

The aim is to understand how neonatal acute kidney injury progresses to chronic kidney disease.
Analysis of neonatal acute kidney injury cases
Assessment of AKI risk variables
Review of community-acquired vs hospital-acquired AKI
Most acute kidney injury cases were found to be community-acquired
Risk variables showed poor ability to detect AKI
Lower rates of hospital-acquired AKI suggest better prevention measures in place

Abstract

with a significantly higher mortality.The selected AKI risk variables had poor discriminatory capacity for detecting AKI in this selected group of sick patients presenting to a tertiary hospital.Most AKI was community acquired and the lower incidence of hospital acquired AKI could reflect heightened awareness and resultant AKI prevention and treatment in atrisk patients in the centre.Further initiatives beyond 0by25 towards AKI could focus on community health centres.I have no potential conflict of interest to disclose.I did not use generative AI and AI-assisted technologies in the writing process.
