Clinical Practice Session
What About the Babies? Updates on the Care of Newborns at Risk for Acute and Chronic Kidney Disease
October 23, 2020 | 02:30 PM - 04:30 PM
Location: Live-Streamed
Session Description
Over the last 5 years, the field of neonatal nephrology has emerged. We now know that AKI is very common in critically ill neonates, and we recognize the long-term consequences of AKI, prematurity, and intra-uterine growth failure. As more critically ill neonates are surviving, the number of neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) graduates with CKD will continue to increase. This session addresses this "hot topic" in pediatric nephrology from the perspective of developmental biologists and adult clinicians who care for these NICU graduates.
ASN thanks the American Society of Pediatric Nephrology for assistance with this session.
