Protein/Energy Debt in Critically Ill Children in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit: Acute Kidney Injury As a Major Risk Factor
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common in pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) patients. In this clinical setting, the risk of protein-energy wasting is high because of the metabolic derangements of the uremic syndrome, the difficulties in nutrient needs estimation, and the possible negative effects of renal replacement therapy itself on nutrient balance. No specific guidelines on nutritional support in PICU patients with AKI are currently available. The present review is aimed at evaluating the role of AKI as a risk condition for inadequate protein/energy intake in these patients, on the basis of literature data on quantitat...

Identification of adolescent and adult patients receiving pediatric urologic care and establishment of a dedicated transition clinic
Pediatric patients with chronic urologic conditions frequently require lifelong evaluation and treatment. Transition to adult urologic care is critically important as these patients mature and the goals of care shift to include sexual function, fertility, and reconstruction.

Critical Care Nephrology: Core Curriculum 2020
Publication date: Available online 22 January 2020Source: American Journal of Kidney DiseasesAuthor(s): Benjamin R. Griffin, Kathleen D. Liu, J. Pedro TeixeiraThe intensive care unit (ICU) is a common source of high-acuity nephrology consultations. Although advanced chronic kidney disease is associated with increased ICU mortality, the prognosis of acute kidney injury (AKI) requiring renal replacement therapy is far worse, with short-term mortality rates that often exceed 50%. As such, it is essential that practicing nephrologists be comfortable caring for critically ill patients. This Core Curriculum article emphasizes th...

Embracing Change —The Time for Pediatric ERAS is Now
The concept of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) has increasingly been embraced by our adult surgical colleagues and has culminated in a new standard of care for a variety of surgical procedures.[1] To date however, the concepts of ERAS have been embraced more slowly in the pediatric surgical subspecialties. On November 30th, 2018 at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, Virginia, the first World Congress for Pediatric Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) was held, bringing together experts from across the globe.

Endoscopic assisted robotic pyelolithotomy: A viable treatment option for complex pediatric nephrolithiasis
and Objective: Endourological and percutaneous approaches are the standard of care for treatment of pediatric urolithiasis. However, in certain situations, an endoscopic assisted robotic pyelolithotomy (EARP) can be an acceptable alternative. Limited data exists on pediatric EARP; thus, we describe our experience.

Machine learning for the prediction of acute kidney injury in critical care patients with acute cerebrovascular disease
CONCLUSIONS: This study developed machine learning methods to identify critically ill patients with acute cerebrovascular disease who are at a high risk of developing AKI. This result suggested that machine learning techniques had the potential to improve the prediction of AKI risk models in critical care.PMID:35166177 | DOI:10.1080/0886022X.2022.2036619
