Postoperative Acute Kidney Injury in Children Undergoing Major Non-cardiac Surgery

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This project aims to conduct an international, prospective, multicentre, observational study to determine the incidence of Postoperative Acute Kidney Injury (PO-AKI) in hospitalized children after noncardiac surgery. Urinary biomarkers are intended to be evaluated as predictors of PO-AKI in the same subjects. The study employs modern standardized classifications for AKI to comprehensively address the issue of PO-AKI in children. Describing the incidence and identifying risk factors for PO-AKI will play a crucial role in developing preventive strategies aimed at reducing associated mortality and morbidity. Furthermore, investigating the relationship between urinary biomarkers of renal injury and PO-AKI will provide valuable insights into assessing postoperative renal function in paediatric patients, especially when repeated blood sampling is not feasible.
