  1. "Prevalence and outcomes of acute kidney injury in term neonates with perinatal asphyxia"Only 60 infants met the inclusion criteria with 36.2% having HIE I, 51.7% HIE II and 12.1% HIE III. The prevalence of AKI was 11.7 % with 11.1 % of the males affected versus 12.5 % of the females. There was a 15 fold increase risk of developing AKI in HIE III versus HIE I, p=0.034 with 95% CI (1.2-183.6). Mortality rate in perinatal asphyxia associated AKI was 71.4 % with a 24 fold increase risk of death in neonates with AKI, p=0.001 with 95% CI (3.7-157). Median day of death in neonates with AKI was 4.5 days. Conclusions: AKI is common and associated with poorer outcomes in the background of moderate and severe perinatal asphyxia. AKI correlates well with the severity of HIE. Larger studies need to be done to correlate maternal factors and perinatal asphyxia-associated AKI.
