Résumé

We assessed the incidence of and risk factors for acute kidney injury (AKI) in very low birthweight infants (VLBW) in a center with a specific neonatal management protocol focusing on avoidance of early mechanical ventilation (MV). This retrospective single center analysis includes 128 infants born in 2020 with a gestational age ≥ 22 weeks who were screened for AKI using the nKDIGO criteria. AKI was identified in 25/128 patients (19.5%) with eight of them (6.3%) presenting with severe AKI. Low gestational age, birthweight and 10-minute Apgar score as well as high CRIB-1 score were all associated with incidence of AKI. Forty-five percent of the infants with MV developed AKI vs. 8.9% of those without MV (p < 0.001). Early onset of MV and administration of more than 3 dosages of NSAIDs for patent duct were identified as independent risk factors for AKI in a logistic regression analysis. We report a substantially lower frequency of AKI in VLBW infants as compared to previous studies, along with a very low rate of MV. A neonatal protocol focusing on avoidance of MV within the first days of life may be a key factor to decrease the risk of AKI in immature infants. A higher resolution version of the Graphical abstract is available as Supplementary information.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
We assessed the incidence of and risk factors for acute kidney injury (AKI) in very low birthweight infants (VLBW) in a center with a specific neonatal management protocol focusing on avoidance of early mechanical ventilation (MV).
METHODS METHODS
This retrospective single center analysis includes 128 infants born in 2020 with a gestational age ≥ 22 weeks who were screened for AKI using the nKDIGO criteria.
RESULTS RESULTS
AKI was identified in 25/128 patients (19.5%) with eight of them (6.3%) presenting with severe AKI. Low gestational age, birthweight and 10-minute Apgar score as well as high CRIB-1 score were all associated with incidence of AKI. Forty-five percent of the infants with MV developed AKI vs. 8.9% of those without MV (p < 0.001). Early onset of MV and administration of more than 3 dosages of NSAIDs for patent duct were identified as independent risk factors for AKI in a logistic regression analysis.
CONCLUSIONS CONCLUSIONS
We report a substantially lower frequency of AKI in VLBW infants as compared to previous studies, along with a very low rate of MV. A neonatal protocol focusing on avoidance of MV within the first days of life may be a key factor to decrease the risk of AKI in immature infants. A higher resolution version of the Graphical abstract is available as Supplementary information.
