Background and objectives AKI is associated with both increased short-term morbidity and mortality and greater long-term risk for CKD. This study determined the prevalence of AKI among very low birth weight infants using a modern study definition, evaluated the frequency of AKI diagnosis reporting in the discharge summary, and determined whether infants were referred to a pediatric nephrologist for AKI follow-up.Design, setting, participants, & measurements Records of very low birth weight infants admitted to a level IV neonatal intensive care unit from 2008 to 2011 were reviewed. AKI was classified using the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes definition modified to include only serum creatinine.Results AKI occurred in 39.8% of 455 infants; 75 (16.5%) infants experienced multiple episodes of AM, and 8 (2%) infants were discharged with an abnormal last creatinine. Updated clinical risk index for babies score >10 (odds ratio, 12.9; 95% confidence interval, 7.8 to 21.4) and gestational age
