    (American Medical Association, 2022-09-01) Goldstein, Stuart L.; Akcan-Arikan, Ayse; Alobaidi, Rashid; Askenazi, David J.; Bagshaw, Sean M.; Barhight, Matthew; Barreto, Erin; Bayrakci, Benan; Bignall, Orville N. R.; Bjornstad, Erica; Brophy, Patrick D.; Chanchlani, Rahul; Charlton, Jennifer R.; Conroy, Andrea L.; Deep, Akash; Devarajan, Prasad; Dolan, Kristin; Fuhrman, Dana Y.; Gist, Katja M.; Gorga, Stephen M.; Greenberg, Jason H.; Hasson, Denise; Heydari Ulrich, Emma; Iyengar, Arpana; Jetton, Jennifer G.; Krawczeski, Catherine; Meigs, Leslie; Menon, Shina; Morgan, Jolyn; Morgan, Catherine J.; Mottes, Theresa; Neumayr, Tara M.; Ricci, Zaccaria; Selewski, David; Soranno, Danielle E.; Starr, Michelle; Stanski, Natalja L.; Sutherland, Scott M.; Symons, Jordan; Tavares, Marcelo S.; Wong Vega, Molly; Zappitelli, Michael; Ronco, Claudio; Mehta, Ravindra L.; Kellum, John; Ostermann, Marlies; Basu, Rajit K.; Pediatric ADQI Collaborative; Pediatrics, School of Medicine
    Importance: Increasing evidence indicates that acute kidney injury (AKI) occurs frequently in children and young adults and is associated with poor short-term and long-term outcomes. Guidance is required to focus efforts related to expansion of pediatric AKI knowledge. Objective: To develop expert-driven pediatric specific recommendations on needed AKI research, education, practice, and advocacy. Evidence review: At the 26th Acute Disease Quality Initiative meeting conducted in November 2021 by 47 multiprofessional international experts in general pediatrics, nephrology, and critical care, the panel focused on 6 areas: (1) epidemiology; (2) diagnostics; (3) fluid overload; (4) kidney support therapies; (5) biology, pharmacology, and nutrition; and (6) education and advocacy. An objective scientific review and distillation of literature through September 2021 was performed of (1) epidemiology, (2) risk assessment and diagnosis, (3) fluid assessment, (4) kidney support and extracorporeal therapies, (5) pathobiology, nutrition, and pharmacology, and (6) education and advocacy. Using an established modified Delphi process based on existing data, workgroups derived consensus statements with recommendations. Findings: The meeting developed 12 consensus statements and 29 research recommendations. Principal suggestions were to address gaps of knowledge by including data from varying socioeconomic groups, broadening definition of AKI phenotypes, adjudicating fluid balance by disease severity, integrating biopathology of child growth and development, and partnering with families and communities in AKI advocacy. Conclusions and relevance: Existing evidence across observational study supports further efforts to increase knowledge related to AKI in childhood. Significant gaps of knowledge may be addressed by focused efforts.

    Framework for Kidney Health Follow‐Up Among Neonates With Critical Cardiac Disease: A Report From the Neonatal Kidney Health Consensus Workshop
    (American Heart Association, 2025) Gorga, Stephen M.; Beck, Tara; Chaudhry, Paulomi; DeFreitas, Marissa J.; Fuhrman, Dana Y.; Joseph, Catherine; Krawczeski, Catherine D.; Kwiatkowski, David M.; Starr, Michelle C.; Harer, Matthew W.; Charlton, Jennifer R.; Askenazi, David J.; Selewski, David T.; Gist, Katja M.; Neonatal Kidney Health Consensus Workshop; Pediatrics, School of Medicine
    Acute kidney injury is common among neonates with critical cardiac disease. Risk factors and associations with kidney-related outcomes are heterogeneous and distinct from other neonates. As survival of children with critical cardiac disease increases to adulthood, the burden of chronic kidney disease is increasing. Thirty percent to 50% of adults with congenital heart disease have impaired kidney function, even in the absence of prior kidney injury episodes. This may be related to the current standardized acute kidney injury criteria, which may not fully capture clinically meaningful kidney injury and long-term kidney health risks. An improved understanding of which neonates with critical cardiac disease should undergo kidney health follow-up is imperative. During the National Institutes of Health-supported Neonatal Kidney Health Consensus Workshop to Address Kidney Health meeting conducted in February 2024, a panel of 51 neonatal nephrology experts focused on at-risk groups: (1) preterm infants, (2) critically ill infants with acute kidney injury, and (3) infants with critical cardiac disease. The critical cardiac disease subgroup, comprising multidisciplinary experts, used a modified Delphi process to achieve consensus on recommendations for kidney health follow-up. In this report, we review available data on kidney health follow-up in critical cardiac disease and summarize the 2 consensus-based recommendations. We introduce novel diagnostic and risk-stratification tools for acute kidney injury diagnosis in neonates with cardiac disease to guide follow-up recommendations. Finally, we identify important knowledge gaps, representing areas of focus for future research. These should be prioritized to understand and improve long-term kidney health in critical cardiac disease.

    The Neglected Price of Pediatric Acute Kidney Injury: Non-renal Implications
    (Frontiers Media, 2022-06-30) Pande, Chetna K.; Smith, Mallory B.; Soranno, Danielle E.; Gist, Katja M.; Fuhrman, Dana Y.; Dolan, Kristin; Conroy, Andrea L.; Akcan-Arikan, Ayse; Pediatrics, School of Medicine
    Preclinical models and emerging translational data suggest that acute kidney injury (AKI) has far reaching effects on all other major organ systems in the body. Common in critically ill children and adults, AKI is independently associated with worse short and long term morbidity, as well as mortality, in these vulnerable populations. Evidence exists in adult populations regarding the impact AKI has on life course. Recently, non-renal organ effects of AKI have been highlighted in pediatric AKI survivors. Given the unique pediatric considerations related to somatic growth and neurodevelopmental consequences, pediatric AKI has the potential to fundamentally alter life course outcomes. In this article, we highlight the challenging and complex interplay between AKI and the brain, heart, lungs, immune system, growth, functional status, and longitudinal outcomes. Specifically, we discuss the biologic basis for how AKI may contribute to neurologic injury and neurodevelopment, cardiac dysfunction, acute lung injury, immunoparalysis and increased risk of infections, diminished somatic growth, worsened functional status and health related quality of life, and finally the impact on young adult health and life course outcomes.

    Prior criteria for organ dysfunction in critically ill children were based mainly on expert opinion. We convened the Pediatric Organ Dysfunction Information Update Mandate (PODIUM) expert panel to summarize data characterizing single and multiple organ dysfunction and to derive contemporary criteria for pediatric organ dysfunction. The panel was composed of 88 members representing 47 institutions and 7 countries. We conducted systematic reviews of the literature to derive evidence-based criteria for single organ dysfunction for neurologic, cardiovascular, respiratory, gastrointestinal, acute liver, renal, hematologic, coagulation, endocrine, endothelial, and immune system dysfunction. We searched PubMed and Embase from January 1992 to January 2020. Study identification was accomplished using a combination of medical subject headings terms and keywords related to concepts of pediatric organ dysfunction. Electronic searches were performed by medical librarians. Studies were eligible for inclusion if the authors reported original data collected in critically ill children; evaluated performance characteristics of scoring tools or clinical assessments for organ dysfunction; and assessed a patient-centered, clinically meaningful outcome. Data were abstracted from each included study into an electronic data extraction form. Risk of bias was assessed using the Quality in Prognosis Studies tool. Consensus was achieved for a final set of 43 criteria for pediatric organ dysfunction through iterative voting and discussion. Although the PODIUM criteria for organ dysfunction were limited by available evidence and will require validation, they provide a contemporary foundation for researchers to identify and study single and multiple organ dysfunction in critically ill children.
