Acute Kidney Injury in Premature Infants

Completed

Conditions studied: Acute Kidney Injury

In brief

Our first Aim is to describe how common a sudden decrease in renal function happens in premature infants in a neonatal intensive care unit. We also want to see how a sudden loss of renal function affects survival. Finally, we will explore non-invasive markers to identify a sudden decrease in renal function from urinary samples.
