Abstract

Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with an increased risk of mortality, especially in pediatric intensive care units. The aim of this study was to determine the risk factors of AKI in children undergoing cardiac surgery for congenital heart disease and to compare two different classification systems: pediatric risk-injury-failure-loss-end-stage renal disease (pRIFLE) and Acute Kidney Injury Network (AKIN).
