Abstract

Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common in critically ill children in the PICU, with incidence rates from 2.5% to 58%, impacting mortality and hospital duration. Early AKI detection is vital, but conventional hemodynamic monitoring often lacks specificity. This study investigates the relationship between the inferior vena cava/aortic (IVC/Ao) ratio and serum lactate levels as non-invasive indicators of renal hemodynamics and tissue perfusion in children. Understanding these parameters could improve early diagnosis, aid clinical decisions, and enhance outcomes for pediatric AKI patients, offering an accessible monitoring method for clinicians.

Methods: This cross-sectional study involved 48 pediatric patients aged 5-18 years showing Pediatric Early Warning Score (PEWS) ≥3 and diagnosed with renal disorders. Patients were admitted to the emergency department, high care unit, PICU, and pediatric ward at Dr. Hasan Sadikin Hospital, Bandung, between May and August 2023. AKI was diagnosed using pRIFLE or KDIGO criteria. The IVC/Ao ratio was assessed via transabdominal USG, and serum lactate levels were measured. Spearman correlation analysis was conducted to assess their relationship.

Results: The median (IQR) IVC/Ao ratio was 0.91 (0.70-1.10), and serum lactate levels were 1.5 (1.1-2.4) mmol/L. Spearman correlation analysis revealed a negative correlation between the IVC/Ao ratio and serum lactate (rho = -0.65, p < 0.001).

Conclusion: A decrease in the IVC/Ao ratio correlates with an increase in serum lactate levels in children with AKI.

期刊介绍: International Journal of Nephrology and Renovascular Disease is an international, peer-reviewed, open-access journal focusing on the pathophysiology of the kidney and vascular supply. Epidemiology, screening, diagnosis, and treatment interventions are covered as well as basic science, biochemical and immunological studies. In particular, emphasis will be given to: -Chronic kidney disease- Complications of renovascular disease- Imaging techniques- Renal hypertension- Renal cancer- Treatment including pharmacological and transplantation- Dialysis and treatment of complications of dialysis and renal disease- Quality of Life- Patient satisfaction and preference- Health economic evaluations. The journal welcomes submitted papers covering original research, basic science, clinical studies, reviews & evaluations, guidelines, expert opinion and commentary, case reports and extended reports. The main focus of the journal will be to publish research and clinical results in humans but preclinical, animal and in vitro studies will be published where they shed light on disease processes and potential new therapies and interventions.
