Brief Summary  

The observational study focuses on renal replacement therapy (RRT) in critically ill children with acute kidney injury (AKI), utilizing a single-center approach to examine clinical outcomes and management strategies. AKI, characterized by acute renal failure lasting hours to days, poses significant challenges in pediatric intensive care, affecting approximately 5% of hospitalized children and 32% of those in pediatric intensive care units. Renal replacement therapies such as hemodialysis (HD) and peritoneal dialysis (PD) play critical roles in managing severe cases, addressing complications like refractory hyperkalemia, oliguria, acidosis, and uremia. 

  

The study aims to explore the efficacy and safety profiles of different RRT modalities, including HD variants like continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) and sustained low-efficiency dialysis (SLED). It seeks to identify predictors of survival and renal recovery in severe AKI (stage 3) among pediatric patients, considering factors such as underlying conditions, sepsis, electrolyte imbalances, and mechanical ventilation requirements. 

  

Methodologically, the study employs an ambispective observational design, integrating prospective and retrospective data over a period of 3 years, with a targeted enrollment of 70 participants. Ethical considerations ensure adherence to institutional guidelines, including informed consent and patient confidentiality. Data collection encompasses detailed clinical parameters, RRT specifics, and outcomes such as mortality rates and renal function recovery post-treatment. 

  

Statistical analyses will encompass descriptive statistics to profile the study cohort, comparative analyses of RRT modalities, survival analysis using Kaplan-Meier curves, and subgroup analyses to explore treatment effect modifiers. This comprehensive approach aims to yield insights into optimizing RRT practices and improving outcomes for critically ill children with AKI, ultimately informing evidence-based guidelines and enhancing pediatric nephrology care strategies.
