Abstract

Nearly half of sick neonates admitted to NICU have AKI, which is maximum in extremely preterm infants. Sepsis, invasive ventilation, acidosis, and perinatal asphyxia have good diagnostic accuracy in identifying neonates likely to develop AKI. • Asphyxia, prematurity, sepsis, shock, hypotension, drugs, congenital heart diseases contribute to neonatal AKI. • Our simple risk prediction model can be used in sick neonates to identify infants who are at risk for developing AKI.
