Study Details

Brief summary:

The primary objective of this study is to describe the pattern of renal tissue oxygen saturation (SrSO2) using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in premature infants <30 weeks gestational age. The secondary objective of this study is to evaluate prenatal and postnatal risk factors for acute kidney injury (AKI) in premature infants <30 weeks gestational age. The investigators will also compare various rates of complications including death, length-of-stay, and prolonged duration of mechanical ventilation, among others.

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Any neonate less than 30 weeks in gestational age
  • Willingness and capacity of both adult parents/guardians to sign consent

Exclusion Criteria:

  • An infant with known congenital anomalies of the kidney (i.e., grade 4 or 5 vesicoureteral reflux (VUR), posterior urethral valves, moderate or severe hydronephrosis, autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD), bilateral renal agenesis or dysplasia)
  • Age >30 weeks gestational age
  • Age <24 weeks and <500 grams (will be excluded due to sensitivity of skin in this vulnerable population).
  • Clinician's decision that NIRS is not suitable due to the patient's clinical condition

Interventions and Outcome Measures

Arms

experimental: NICU patients born less than 30 weeks gestational age

All patients included in the study will be assigned to receive NIRS monitoring.

Interventions

NIRS Monitoring

The renal NIRS device is a non-invasive tool that uses near-infrared light to measure oxygen saturation various tissues. Renal NIRS sensors will be placed by 24 hours of the participants' admission.

Primary outcome measure

  • Average NIRS Value (SrSO2) [ Time Frame: Up to Day-of-life 7 ]
